Acharya, IAS (Rtd) Chief Executive, GEF 6 Principal Message It is indeed my pleasure to note that PRADARSHANA-Open Day project exhibition’ of our institution is organized to exhibit the projects being carried out by our students. One of the main challenges in engineering education is to help generate ideas that will benefit the society and to educate and train students to work in the field where they will be valued both for their specialized knowledge, and for their ability to research, communicate and solve problems. PRADARSHANA serves this purpose by providing an opportunity to showcase the innovative ideas among the students from various disciplines and to engage and excel in confronting real world design problems every year. It provides a means for students to put to work various skills acquired in their undergraduate study, including project management, multi- disciplinary teamwork, design skills, and fabrication techniques. Students can demonstrate their creative skills in identifying real world problems, formulating alternative solutions, and systematically arriving at final designs that satisfy various professional standards and realistic design constraints. I invite students, parents and common public to the Open Day Project Exhibition to witness the work done by our students and appreciate their efforts. The faculty along with the staff members, students and organizers deserve my heartiest congratulation for taking this wonderful initiative forward. I wish that this event – PRADARSHANA 2017 achieves its intended purpose and wish a great success. Dr. N.V.R. Naidu Principal, M S Ramaiah Institute of Technology 7 8 9 10 11 About the OPEN Day The project exhibition will provide a unique opportunity for the students to showcase and promote their conceptual ideas and prototypes in front of some of the leading decision makers in the industry. Students from all the departments of MSRIT will be actively involved in this exhibition, showcasing their technical knowledge and innovative ideas for technical development. This exhibition will also see the involvement of angel investors and venture capitalists - people who can help the students realize the true potential of their ideas and give them a chance to take it to the next level. The scope of this exhibition goes beyond what will be on display on the two days as the students are not only expected to present their technical prowess but also to come up with projects which can prove to be of great good for the society. MSRIT has always promoted such projects and will continue to do so in the future. Apart from what the students will have to showcase during the OPEN DAY, the exhibition will also have upcoming projects and ventures from some of the big names in technology on display. The event is expected to receive huge footfall as people from all across the city of Bengaluru will be coming to witness this exhibition along with several media personnel and dignitaries from various educational institutions in the city. Overall, the event is destined to be one of a huge stature and appeal with undergraduate students from various engineering disciplines showcasing their projects under one roof, with an aim to make it big!

  • The Role of Policies of Lake Water Management in Bangalore, India Lavanya Vikram 1, Neelima Reddy 2 1,2 MSRIT, Bangalore, Karnataka
    The role of Policies of Lake Water Management in Bangalore, India Lavanya Vikram 1, Neelima Reddy 2 1,2 MSRIT, Bangalore, Karnataka Abstract: Water pollution is a serious problem in India as its surface water resource and a growing percentage of its groundwater reserves are contaminated by pollutants. The high incidence of severe contamination near urban areas indicates that the industrial and domestic sectors contributing to water pollution is much higher. Water as an environmental resource is regenerative in the sense, that it could absorb pollution loads up to certain levels without affecting its quality. In fact there could be a problem of water pollution only if the pollution loads exceed the natural regenerative capacity of a water resource. The control of water pollution is therefore to reduce the pollution loads from anthropogenic activities to the natural regenerative capacity of the resource. The benefits of preservation of water quality are manifold. Agricultural run-offs affect groundwater and surface water sources as they contain pesticide and fertilizer residues. Fertilizers have an indirect adverse impact on water resources. Indeed, by increasing the nutritional content of water courses, fertilizers allow organisms to proliferate. Storm water runoff from urban areas is a major source for contamination of water. It should be clearly understood that the role of policies to be compensated fully for the damages from any kind of pollution. Using available data and case studies, this paper aims to provide an overview of the extent, impacts, and control of water pollution in India, taking the case of lakes in Bangalore. Keywords: water pollution, environmental issues, lakes, land use, guidelines 1.

Pavanika, D. Praveen, R. Ushakiran, G. Vinod Kumar and Sheriff Vaseem Anjum Department of Architecture, BMSCE, Autonomous under VTU, Bangalore - 560 019, Karnataka, India; [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Bangalore, when founded by Kempegowda I, faced water scarcity, which was mitigated by the ruler by building reservoirs as tanks and lakes. With rapid urbanisation, the lakes have been encroached upon and have given way to build struc- tures catering to the citizen’s needs. According to study conducted by the Energy and Wetland Research Group, Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science, the 262 wetlands that existed in Bangalore in 1962 has declined by 58% by 2007. Similarly, when the city’s built up area shot up by 466% between 1973 and 2007, the number of lakes came down from 159 to 93. Lakes also sustained over the years due to the active linkages between them, which are now part of the hardscape of the city. With the increase in built environment, the city is losing out on softscapes that help rejuvenate the water table through percolation. The storm water drains established by the erstwhile rulers of Bangalore are turning grey. One of the lakes in Bangalore which is rapidly losing out on its ability to cater to the biodiversity and turning grey is Ulsoor Lake.

  • Living Landscapes
    Introduction Yoga and Landscapes This book explores the practice of Yoga in regard to a systematic technique of performing concentration on the five elements. It examines some ideas that also concerned the pre-Socratic philosophers of Greece. Just as Thales mused about water and Heraclitus extolled the power of fire, Indian thinkers, theologians, and liturgists reflected on how the elements interweave with one another and within the human body to create the raw material for the experience of life. In a real and metaphorical sense, according to Indian thought, we live in landscapes and landscapes live in us. For more than 3,500 years, India has identified earth, water, fire, air, and space as the foundational building blocks of external reality. Starting with literary praise of these elements in the Vedas, by the time of the Buddha, the Upaniṣads, and early Jainism, this acknowledgment had grown into a systematic reflection. This book examines both the descriptions of the elements and the very technical training tools that emerged so that human beings might develop regard and consideration for them. Hindus, Buddhists, and Jain Yogis explore the human-earth relationship each in their own way. For Hindus, nature emerges as a theme in the Vedas, the Upaniṣads, the Yoga literature, the epics, and the Purāṇas. The Yogis develop a mental discipline of sustained interiorization, known as pañca mahābhūta dhāraṇā (concentration on the five great elements) and as bhūta śuddhi (purification of the elements). The Buddha himself also taught a sequential meditation on the five elements. The Jains developed their own unique reflections on nature, finding life in particles of earth, water, fire, and air.
