Salient Features of Kurnool District 1.1 Administrative Setup DMG, GoAP 7 District Survey Report - 2018 Kurnool district is the South-Western district of Andhra Pradesh and lies approximately between 14°54′ to 16°18′ North latitudes and 76°58′ to 79°34′ East longitudes. The district is bounded by Mahabubnagar district on the North, East by Prakasam and South by Anantapuramu and YSR districts and West by Karnataka State. The total area of the district is 17,617 Sq.Km, and ranks 3rd position contributing 6.42% area of the State. The shape of the district is rectangular from East to West. Kurnool district lies on the South Central Western part of the Andhra Pradesh State bordering Karnataka State on the West, Mahbubnagar district on the North, East by Prakasam, while Anantapur & YSR districts on the south. Kurnool town was once the State Capital of Andhra Pradesh upon bifurcation from Madras State during 1956 shown in fig: 1 Fig.1 Administrative Boundaries of Kurnool District, Andhra Pradesh 1.2 Drainage DMG, GoAP 8 District Survey Report - 2018 The principal rivers flowing in the district are Tungabhadra (its tributary, the Hundri) Krishna and Kunderu. Tungabhadra rises in the Western Ghats and after forming part of Northern boundary for some distance, separates Kurnool with Mahabubnagar while flowing in an Eastern direction and receives Hundri; thereby both these rivers fall into the river Krishna at Kundli sangam about 29 Km from Kurnool after winding Northwards. The river Hundri, a tributary of Tungabhadra rises in the fields of Maddikera in Maddikera Mandal receives a stream from Erramalas at Laddagiri in Kodumur Mandal and joins Tungabhadra at Kurnool. It drains much of Maddikera, Pattikonda, Deverakonda, Gonegandla, Kodumur and Kallur Mandals. This is a turbid stream with sudden rise and fall. The Kunderu also called Kumudavathi rises on the Western side of Erramalas, winds its way into Kunderu valley and flows in Southern direction collecting drainage all along its course from both sides. It flows through Orvakal, Midthur, Gadivemula, Nandyal, Gospadu, Koilkuntla, Dornipadu and Chagalamarri Mandals and then enters YSR district shown in fig: 2 DMG, GoAP 9 District Survey Report - 2018 Fig.2 Drainage Network and Surface Water bodies of the District 1.3 Climate and Rainfall At hinterland, temperature variations throughout the year can be very high and the diurnal range of temperature varies from place to place. Inland areas warm up greatly during the afternoon while the sun is shining down, but they also cool down quickly at night after sunset. The Climate of the district is normally good and healthy. January, February and March months are usually pleasant with moderate winds from South-East. April and May are the hottest months of the year, during these months the wind shifts to Southwest with increased force and brings welcome showers by the end of May. During the succeeding four months, the wind blows from Western side in Major parts of the district and brings fair DMG, GoAP 10 District Survey Report - 2018 quantum of rainfall. By the end of September, the wind is light and pleasant forecasting the onset of Northeast monsoon. In November and December the weather is fine, Rainfall is rare and wind is light with occurrence of heavy dew. District normal rainfall of the year is 670.3 mm. During 2014-15 the rainfall received is 473.9 mm. The rainy season commences with the onset of the South-west monsoon in the part of June shown in fig: 3 Fig: 3 Automatic Weather Stations in Kurnool District The rainfall in the district in general increases from the East towards the West.

  • Potential for Unconformity-Related Uranium Deposits in the Northern
    International Symposium on Uranium Raw Material for the Nuclear Fuel Cycle: Exploration, Mining, Production, Supply and Demand, Economics and Environmental Issues (URAM-2018) Contribution ID: 71 Type: ORAL POTENTIAL FOR UNCONFORMITY-RELATED URANIUM DEPOSITS IN THE NORTHERN PART OF THE CUDDAPAH BASIN, TELANGANA AND ANDHRA PRADESH, INDIA Tuesday, 26 June 2018 09:40 (20 minutes) INTRODUCTION The intra-cratonic, Mesoproterozoic Cuddapah Basin in the Dharwar Craton of India hosts several typesof uranium deposits in its various stratigraphic levels. Signatures of uranium mineralisation are recorded in the Gulcheru and Vempalle Formations in the lower part and along the unconformity between the basement granite and the overlying sediments of Srisailam / Banganapalle Formation in the upper part of the Cudda- pah sequence. The Srisailam and Palnad sub-basins lying in the northern part of the Cuddapah basinhosts Proterozoic unconformity related uranium mineralisation. Uranium mineralisation in these sub-basins occurs close to the unconformity between the basement complex containing basement granitoid, basic dykes of Pale- oproterozoic age and greenstone belt of Achaean age and arenaceous, argillaceous and calcareous sediments of Meso-Neoproterozoic age. Concerted sub-surface exploration over two decades has established three small to medium tonnage uranium deposits at Lambapur (~1,200tU), Peddagattu (~6,400tU) and Chitrial (~8,000tU) along the unconformity between the basement Mahabubnagar granite and overlying Srisailam Formation in Srisailam sub-basin; and one small tonnage deposit at Koppunuru (~2,300tU) close to the unconformity contact between basement granite and Banganapalle Formation of the Kurnool Group in the Palnad sub-basin. In all these deposits, uranium mineralisation is concealed and lies below the cover rocks at a depth of <5-150m.

KARUNAKARA RAO 1, A. KRISHNA KUMARI 2, V. SREENIVASULU 3 & T. PENCHALAIAH 4 1,2,3 Department of Geography, S.K. University, Anantapuram, Andhra Pradesh, India 4Sr. Lecturer, Government Degree College, Andhra Pradesh, India ABSTRACT The increasing pressure of population on land as well as precarious nature of agriculture in the drought prone areas have been accentuating the problem of undernourishment and malnutrition. It is not uncommon that the incidence of nutritional deficiency diseases is high in poor, vulnerable and downtrodden groups of population. The low standards of Nutrition leading to cause a variety of diseases like Goitre, Rickets, Anaemia, unsafe pregnancies, Beri-Beri, Pellagra, Scurvey, Fatigue, Colitis, Avitaminosis, Diarrhoea, Underweight, Conjunctivitis, Coronary heart diseases, defects in basic metabolism, slow pulse, lowered blood pressure, Suppression of menses in women, Dry, Coarse & cold skin, Insomnia, Osteoporosis Nutritional edema, Burning sensation in the feet and hands etc. It is now known that malnutrition may aggravate the clinical course of some infectious diseases. Thus, directly (or) indirectly both malnutrition and undernutrition accounts for a considerable part of the ill health among the population.In this context, an attempt is made here to study the consumption of food and available nutrients in the scheduled caste population of kurnool district, Andhra pradesh. KEYWORDS: Consumption, Nutrients, Deficiency, Balanced Diet, Standard Requirement INTRODUCTION Study Area Kurnool District is located in Rayalaseema Region of Andhra Pradesh between the northern latitudes of 14 ◦ 54' and 16 ◦ 25' and eastern longitudes of 76 ◦ 58' and 78 ◦ 25'.

  • Environmental Degradation and Landscape Management of the Nallamalai and Erramalai Hills of the Rayalaseema Region, Andhra Pradesh, India Using Geospatial Technology
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN (Online): 2319-7064 Index Copernicus Value (2013): 6.14 | Impact Factor (2014): 5.611 Environmental Degradation and Landscape Management of the Nallamalai and Erramalai Hills of the Rayalaseema Region, Andhra Pradesh, India Using Geospatial Technology Kommu Somanna1, Mendu Sambasiva Rao2 1,2Dept. of Geography, Sri Krishnadevaraya University, Anantapuramu, Andhra Pradesh, India Abstract: The Nallamalai and Erramalai hills of the Rayalaseema region posses rich biotic and mineral resources. They are formed of structural hills and cuesta hills enclosing the Kadapa and Kunderu valleys. They are also formed of Proterozoic formations consisting of shales, dolomite, limestone and quartzite. The Nallamalai hills raised to a height of about 600 to 900 meters above MSL and are covered with thick dry deciduous forests. The Erramalai hills range in height from 300 to 600 meters above MSL and are covered with scrubs and shrubs. The IRS IB Geo-coded data on scale 1:50,000 and Survey of India topographic sheets on scale 1:50,000 are used to map the ecologically disturbed zones in Nallamalai hills and land degradation due to over exploitation of mineral resources of the Erramalai hills. The intensity of soil removal, Sediment Yield Index and Erosion Index are worked out at sub-basin level and the environmental degraded zones are delineated. Based on the intensity of ecological and environmental degradation a few suggestions are made for better landscape management of the Erramalai and Nallamalai hills. Keywords: Proterozoic, deciduous, ecologically, intensity, degraded. 1. Introduction 2. Study Area Land degradation is defined as the land is subjected to The Nallamalai, Erramalai, Palakonda, Velikonda, Tirumala degradation processes by weathering and mass wasting and Seshachalam hills cover an area of about 51.142km2.

  • Institutional and Technological Design Development Through Use Of
    Institutional and Technological Design Development Through Use of Case Based Discussion Arindrajit Basu, Elonnai Hickok and Regulatory Amber Sinha Interventions For Emerging Economies Governing The Use Of Artificial Intelligence In Public Functions Regulatory Interventions For Emerging Economies Governing The Use Of Artificial Intelligence In Public Functions Introduction Background and Scope The use of artificial intelligence (AI) driven decision making in public functions has been touted around the world as a means of augmenting human capacities, removing bureaucratic fetters, and benefiting society. Yet, with concerns over bias, fairness, and a lack of algorithmic accountability, it is being increasingly recognized that algorithms have the potential to exacerbate entrenched structural inequality and threaten core constitutional values. While these concerns are applicable to both the private and public sector, this paper focuses on recommendations for public sector use, as standards of comparative constitutional law dictate that the state must abide by the full scope of fundamental rights articulated both in municipal and international law. For example, as per Article 13 of the Indian Constitution, whenever the government is exercising a “public function”, it is bound by the entire range of fundamental rights articulated in Part III of the Constitution. However, the definition and scope of “public function” is yet to be clearly defined in any jurisdiction, and certainly has no uniformity across countries. This poses a unique challenge to the regulation of AI projects in emerging economies. Due to a lack of government capacity to implement these projects in their entirety, many private sector organizations are involved in functions which were traditionally identified in India as public functions, such as policing, education, and banking.
