  • Reuse of Irrigation Drainage Water in Gonchi Systems
    Title: Reuse of irrigation drainage water from command areas: Learning from Traditional Gonchi channels in Andhra Pradesh, India Ramamohan Venkata Ramachandrula, Joint Director (Sustainable Livelihoods), Centre for World Solidarity (CWS), Hyderabad, India. Abstract Gonchi seepage channels in Anantapur district of Andhra Pradesh, India are traditional forms of diversion channels used by farmers to divert seepage water from streams and rivers to cultivate food crops. Each such Gonchi channel runs for about 3 to 7 km and typically each irrigates 200 to 300 acres. Farmers benefiting from these channels are traditionally organized into strong informal groups and local regulations on allocations and use are still in place in most of the villages. Paddy is the predominant crop cultivated in these areas during October to January period every year. A field study done on 37 such channels in Pennar river basin revealed that most of them are being maintained well by Gonchi committees but few require renovation works that are beyond the capacity of these committees. These channels once used freshwater from rains and seepage flows in streams and river Pennar. After the construction of Mid Pennar Reservoir (MPR) at Penakacherla in Anantapur district in 1968, these seepage channels got rejuvenated by increased inflow of irrigation drainage its command areas. Many seepage channels in Anantapur district may be renovated through systematic re-use of such drainage water from command areas of modern irrigation projects. Key words: Gonchi, Seepage channels, reuse of irrigation drainage 1. Introduction India has a diverse practice of traditional water conservation, storage, distribution and utilization methods evolved and practised traditionally for centuries.

The first phase would be completed with Rs. 1,300 crores. TD Asked about the availability of water to the project the Chief Minister said there was no way but diversion of Godavari waters to the Krishna delta and Nagarjunasagar. Admitting that there were problems in allocation of water to the project in the Krishna-Tungabhadra basin he said the two river systems were over-exploited and over-depended. All projects for diversion of Godavari waters to the Krishna basin would be taken up on a war- footing and would be completed in three-four years time. Diversion of Godavari waters would also help give additional water to Mahabubnagar and Nalgonda districts, he said. Page 1 © 2014 Factiva, Inc. All rights reserved.

  • Mapping River Inundation – a Case Study on River Pennar from Penna Ahobilam Balancing Reservoir (PABR) to Mid Pennar Reservoir (MPR)
    ISSN: 2319-8753 International Journal of Innovative Research in Science, Engineering and Technology (An ISO 3297: 2007 Certified Organization) Vol. 3, Issue 12, December 2014 Mapping River Inundation – A Case Study on River Pennar from Penna Ahobilam Balancing Reservoir (PABR) To Mid Pennar Reservoir (MPR) R. Bhavani Assistant Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, JNTUA College of Engineering, Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh, India ABSTRACT : Anantapur district is situated in semi arid region of Andhra Pradesh, India. Rainfall is scanty, erratic and unpredictable in this region. In most of the years, there is scarcity of water due to scanty rain fall, and at times, there are flash floods due to sudden excess rainfall. Effects of excess and insufficient rainfalls are floods and droughts respectively. Due to the experience of many droughts in succession, people in this region are not able to imagine the floods and are not able to care the ill effects of floods. With this, people are not hesitating to develop agriculture, Industries and habitations on flanks nearby the rivers. But there are some instances of heavy floods though rare occurrences. Such rare floods may result inundation which may cause damages to property, casualties including livestock etc. To avoid this, it is necessary to have some awareness regarding the extent of inundation due to floods so that, the encroachments on the flanks of rivers can be minimised and in turn the ill effects can be reduced. Here an attempt has been made to assess the Inundation along the flanks of the River Pennar from Penna Ahobilam Balancing Reservoir (PABR) to Mid Pennar Reservoir (MPR) in Anantapur district, Andhra Pradesh state, India.

  • A Study of Rayalaseema Temples
    www.ijcrt.org © 2019 IJCRT | Volume 7, Issue 3 July 2019 | ISSN: 2320-2882 A Study of RayalaSeema Temples Dr Anand.B Asst Professor of History Govt First Grade College – Sunkalbidari Abstract:- Rayalaseema is a geographic region in the state of Andhra Pradesh in India. It includes the southern districts of Chittoor, Kadapa and Kurnool Anantapur, with an area of 67,526 km2, Rayalaseema is larger than Himachal Pradesh Kerala, Punjab, and nine other states in India. It has a population of 15,184,908, which is 30.03% of the state population. Rayalaseema borders the state of Tamil Nadu to the south, Karnataka to the west. Introduction: The region contributes 52 assembly segments to Andhra pradesh state legislature and 8 parliamentary constituencies to Indian parliament. These Telugu-speaking districts were part of the Madras Presidency until 1953, when Telugu-speaking districts of the Presidency were carved out to form Andhra State. From 1953 to 1956, the region was part of Andhra State. In 1956, the Telangana region was merged with Andhra State to form Andhra Pradesh State. Earlier, Bellary district was part of Rayalaseema. With the formation of states based on languages, Bellary was joined to Karnataka. The city of Bellary, which has large numbers of both Kannada and Telugu speakers, was included in Mysore after protracted debate and controversy. Rayalaseema was ruled by Sri Krishna Devaraya. Rayalaseema was the original home of the Eastern Chalukyas, which gradually extended their sway over Karnataka under pressure from the Chola kings. Although Rayalaseema is a small region compared to the rest of Telugu-speaking areas, its contribution to Telugu, Kannada, Tamil, and Urdu arts, culture and literature is immense.
