Draft Itinerary - Subject to Change DRAFT ITINERARY - SUBJECT TO CHANGE INSIDE JEWISH INDIA JDC Entwine Insider Trip for Young Professionals August 13-22, 2017 India has a rich history of religious tolerance, and Jews have been able to freely practice their faith there for over 2,000 years.

  • Draft Report on the Study of Lakes on Mumbai
    Draft report on the Study of Lakes on Mumbai. 22nd March, 2009 Project team Dr. Goldin Quadros Ms. Gauri Gurav Field Team Mr. Vishal Rasal Mr. Dilip Shenai Mr. Kaustubh Bhagat. World Wide Fund for Nature – India, Maharashtra State Office 204 National Insurance Building, Dr. D.N. Road, Fort Mumbai 400 001. Introduction It is well known that Mumbai city is comprised of seven islands till 1857. Gradually with invasion the islands were merged by the invaders and now the entire city is one big island. The island city has a rich heritage of natural resources like the forests, lakes mangroves, etc. The city in the past was self sufficient in terms of the basic amenities like housing, food, water, electricity it provided to its inhabitants. However with growing population and pollution the city is now adding to the pressure on the adjacent districts for its water and electricity requirements. It is common knowledge that Mumbai has three lakes i.e. Tulsi, Powai and Vihar that used to provide water to Mumbai residents. Very few actually know that the city is blessed with many more in its BMC jurisdiction. These lakes are either polluted by human sewage or industrial effluents and have remained neglected with increasing urbanization. With depleting forests and water resources it is about time that the existing lakes are given a chance to serve the society again. How do we define lakes? There is considerable uncertainty about defining the difference between lakes and ponds. For example, limnologists have defined lakes as waterbodies which are simply a larger version of a pond or which have wave action on the shoreline, or where wind induced turbulence plays a major role in mixing the water column.
