Our ancestors, having known the greatness & importance of rain water, have created many water bodies for various uses. In ancient Tamil Nadu water bodies used for storage of rain water 1 were classified as Eri, Thangal, Kanmai, Oorani, Kulam, Enthal, Tharuvai, etc., Each name of the water body indicates a particular purpose of the water body. Eri (ஏ쎿) means Lake which is used for Irrigation Purpose. Thangal & Kanmai are the equal words of Lake in Thondai Mandalam & Pandi Mandalam respectively. Oorani means a water body that fulfills the drinking water needs of the Village. Kulam (埁ளம்) is the water body used for bathing. Tharuvai is the lake which has great water spread like a flat saucer that acts as its own catchment. Upon seeing this classification of water bodies based on their applications, it is wonderful to know the scientific approach of our ancient Tamil Nadu. Hon’ble Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, having emphasis on conserving the water which is the lifeline to all living beings on earth, have formed an independent Department for effective management of the Water Resources in Tamil 2 Nadu vide G.O. (Ms) No. 55, Personnel and Administrative Reforms (A) Department, Dated 07.06.2021. Water Resources Department is more focused on meeting the water demands of the various sectors viz Agriculture, Domestic, Industries etc., by maintaining the water bodies and their infrastructure in a healthy manner. The Water Resources Department is taking up construction and maintenance of the dams, anicuts, check dams, canals, channels, tanks, ponds and inter linking of Rivers within the State apart from providing appropriate ground water recharge structures.

Ans (b) Explanation: Sea breeze is caused due to the heating of land and it occurs in the day time 3. Ans (c) Explanation: • Days are hot, and during the hot season, noon temperatures of over 100°F. are quite frequent. When night falls the clear sky which promotes intense heating during the day also causes rapid radiation in the night. Temperatures drop to well below 50°F. and night frosts are not uncommon at this time of the year. This extreme diurnal range of temperature is another characteristic feature of the Sudan type of climate. • The savanna, particularly in Africa, is the home of wild animals. It is known as the ‘big game country. • The leaf and grass-eating animals include the zebra, antelope, giraffe, deer, gazelle, elephant and okapi. • Many are well camouflaged species and their presence amongst the tall greenish-brown grass cannot be easily detected. The giraffe with such a long neck can locate its enemies a great distance away, while the elephant is so huge and strong that few animals will venture to come near it. It is well equipped will tusks and trunk for defence. • The carnivorous animals like the lion, tiger, leopard, hyaena, panther, jaguar, jackal, lynx and puma have powerful jaws and teeth for attacking other animals. 4.

    PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT WATER RESOURCES DEPARTMENT PERFORMANCE BUDGET 2015-2016 © Government of Tamil Nadu 2016 PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT WATER RESOURCES DEPARTMENT 1.0. General Management of water resources is vital to the holistic development of the State due to the growing drinking water needs and industrialisation, in addition to the needs of fisheries, environmental flows and community uses. Taking into account the limited availability of water and increasing demand for various uses, the need for creating new irrigation facilities at feasible locations and modernising, improving and rehabilitating the existing irrigation infrastructure assumes great importance. The Government is continuously striving to improve the service delivery of the irrigation system and to increase the productivity, through improving the water use efficiency, participation of farmers in operation and maintenance, canal automation, benchmarking studies and performance evaluation studies and building the capacity of Water Resources Department officials and farmers. In addition, the Government is taking up various schemes, viz., Rivers Inter-linking schemes, Artificial Recharge Schemes, Flood Management Programme, Coastal protection works, Restoration of Traditional water bodies, Augmenting drinking water supply, etc., to harness, develop and effectively utilise the seasonal flood flows occurring over a short period of time during monsoon. 1 2.0.

  • Palacode Town Panchayat Final Report Dharmapuri District, Tamil Nadu - 1
    City Corporate cum Business Plan for Palacode Town Panchayat Final Report Dharmapuri District, Tamil Nadu - 1 - 1 PROJECT OVERVIEW 1.1 ASSIGNMENT BACKGROUND The World Bank has been a partner in urban reform program of Government of Tamil Nadu (GoTN) with engagement through Tamil Nadu Urban Development Project (TNUDP) - TNUDP-I, TNUDP-II and TNUDP-III (in progress). Towards taking forward the urban reform agenda, the GoTN is now implementing the TNUDP-III with focus on furthering the reforms initiated under TNUDP-II. The Tamil Nadu Urban Infrastructure Financial Services Limited (TNUIFSL), as a financial intermediary, intends to assist the Commissionerate of Town Panchayats (CTP) in strengthening and improving the financial position of its Town Panchayats for effective capital investment management and urban service delivery. These towns possess a good potential for implementation of such financial reforms for which it is essential to formulate a City Corporate Cum Business Plan. The CTP has started the process of capacity building in Town Panchayats through this process to enhance the vision of the ULBs in growth of their towns. 1.1.1 CITY CORPORATE PLAN A City Corporate Plan (CCP) is the ULB’s corporate strategy that presents both a vision of a desired future perspective for the city and the ULB’s organization, and mission statements on how the ULB, together with other stakeholders, intends to work towards achieving their long-term vision in the next ten years. A CCP translates mission into actions and actions into outcomes. When a CCP is developed in close consultation with, and endorsed by all relevant local stakeholders, a ULB and others who commit themselves to action can be held accountable for their mission statements, actions and expected outcomes.
