  • Planning Strategies for Akkulam Lake Rejuvenation
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN: 2319-7064 SJIF (2020): 7.803 Planning Strategies for Akkulam Lake Rejuvenation Gayatri Krishnan R .J1, Gesno George2 1M.Plan (Urban Planning) Student, Dept. of Architecture, TKM College of engineering, Kollam, India 2Assistant Professor, Department of Architecture, TKM College of Engineering, Kollam, India Abstract: Healthy lakes and their shores not only provide us with a number of environmental benefits but they influence our quality of life and they strengthen our economy. Lakes cover an important physical feature of India, other than tourism it acts as drinking water source, venue for commercial activities, historical importance venue for sacred holy activities, power generation, and shelter for migratory birds. Currently, India is losing wetlands at the rate of 2-3% each year. Due to indiscriminate meddling of man, lakes are on the verge of extinction. There is an urgent need to alert world nations about the current state and trajectory of the world‘s lakes. They are important ecosystems that, when respected and cared for, can sustain a healthy balance of aquatic life, provide us with much enjoyment, and help support our socio-economic needs. The study mainly focuses on the causes of Akkulam lake (a small inland brackish water lake in the southwest coast of Kerala) degradation and importance of lake rejuvenation in tourism sector. And finally planning strategies for the Akkulam lake are formulated based on the rejuvenating efforts through case studies from International and National contexts. Keywords: Wetland, Degradation, Rejuvenation, Planning strategies 1. Introduction b) To study the causes of degradation of lake, opportunities and benefits of lake rejuvenation.

  • Attukal Pongala Campaign Strategy
    Attukal Pongala Campaign Strategy Attukal Pongala 2019 Attukal Pongala is a 10-day festival celebrated at the Attukal Temple, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India, during which there is a huge gathering of millions of women on the ninth day. This is the lighting of the Pongala hearth (called Pandarayaduppu) placed inside the temple by the chief priest. The festival is marked as the largest annual gathering of 2.5 million women by the Guinness World Records in 2009. This is the earliest Pongala festival in Kerala. This temple is also known by the name Sabarimala of women. Mostly Attukal Pongala falls in the month of March or April. Trivandrum Municipal Corporation successfully implemented green protocol for the third time with the help of the Health Department and Green Army International. The need of Green Pongala About 4 years back the amount of waste collected at the end of Attukal Pongala used to measure around 350 tons. Corporation took steps to spread messages of Green Protocol to the devotees and food distributers more effectively with the help of the Green Army. In 2016 Corporation brought this measure down to about 170 tons. Corporation continued to give out Green Protocol messages and warnings throughout the year. And the measure came down to 85 tons in 2017 and 75 tons in 2018. After the years of reduction in waste, Presently, this year, in 2019 the waste has reduced as much as 65 Tons. The numbers show the reason and need for Green Protocol implementation for festivals.
