The main objective of the preparation of district human development report is to transform the process of development planning with full participation of all stakeholders. District Human Development Report aims at getting deeper understanding of the issues at the district level and thus help in formulation of developmental policies through human development prism. District Human Development Report is expected to be input for deliberations of the District Planning Committee for the preparation of district plans. BACKGROUND Tapi is located in South Gujarat region. Tapi is located in the Southern part of Gujarat state between 73.5° to 74.23° East(Longitude) and 21.0° to 21.23° North(Latitude). The area of the Tapi district is 3434.64 sq km. The district headquarter of Tapi is Vyara. Tapi comprises 5 talukas – Nizar, Uchchhal, Songadh, Vyara and Valod. Tapi has a moderate climate, ranging from 40° C in the months of March to May to 11° C in the months of December to February. The average rainfall of Tapi district is 813.40 mm. The population of Tapi district has increased from 7,19,634 in 2001 to 8,07,022 in 2011,a decadal growth rate of 12.10 per cent. This population growth rate has decreased from 14.78 in 1991-2001. This is much lower than the population growth rate of Gujarat (19.30 per cent). The sex ratio of Tapi is 1007, highest among the all districts; more than the state average of 919.

Proportion of ST population of Tapi is 84.18 per cent. Tapi has good infrastructure facilities. All villages of Tapi are connected to all weather roads and all villages have access to electricity. Despite good road connectivity, the frequency of State Transport buses are less and roads are narrow. This is perhaps one of the reasons of satisfactory growth rate. The report is organized into five chapters: Introduction to Tapi, Education, Health, Livelihood and The Way Ahead. A brief outline of chapters is as follows: CHAPTER OUTLINE Chapter – 1 provides an overview of Tapi district. The chapter discusses climatic conditions and seasons in Tapi, demographic characteristics of the district, infrastructure facilities in the district and on tourism avenues.

    Surat City Resilience Strategy April 2011 1 CONTENTS Surat City Resilience Strategy April 2011 2 CONTENTS 1 CONTENTS M E S S A G E FOREWORD It is with the great pleasure of reaching a milestone in an important program that I introduce to you the context and the process that has resulted in the “City Resilience Strategy’ document for Surat. As we know, cities have been the centres of major civilizations all through the history of mankind, whether in the Mohenjo-daro towns, in Mesopotamian citadels, in the Aztec city palaces or in Classical Roman and Greek republics. In the modern era too, cities have been the cradles of economic, political and cultural evolution of human society in many ways. As cities become recognised as the engines of economic growth, their significance for the peace and progress of every nation has become more and more evident. While in many western nations, almost 60 to 80% of the population lives in cities and towns, India too, has seen a rapid growth in urbanization fuelled by growth in the industrial and service sectors along with large scale migration across and within states. At the same time, Indian cities face urgent challenges to meet the growing needs of infrastructure and services that would ensure an acceptable (and in some cases desirable) standard of living and quality of life. The challenges are not only confined to providing quality and equitable accessibility of municipal services, but also relate to the resources required for ensuring sustained availability of these services that are critical to ensure safe, healthy and viable urban life.

    RESEARCH PAPER Engineering Volume : 4 | Issue : 8 | August 2014 | ISSN - 2249-555X Revised Reservoir Gate Operation for Ukaidam Peak Flood, Rule level, Reservoir operation, Flood forecasting, Simulation, Optimal KEYWORDS solution. Gaurang I. Joshi Dr. Geeta S. Joshi Assistant Professor, CED, FTE, M.S. University of Professor, Ph.D Guide, CED, FTE, M.S. University of Baroda, Vadodara. Baroda, Vadodara. ABSTRACT Out of the total rainfall of India, about 75% of it is received during the four moths (June to September) due to the South-West monsoon which is non-uniformly distributed in space as well. India is traversed by a large number of river systems. The rivers of North and Central India are prone to frequent floods during the South- West monsoon season, particularly in the month of July, August and September. Surat is one of the major important cities of Gujarat. In view of above scenario, it is observed that Surat is a highly developed, thickly populated cosmo- politan character city with full of various activities going on day and night. Any natural calamity which causes loss of lives to property & infrastructure along with effects on industrial processes going on has serious impact on economy of the state. So, it becomes highly necessary that past flood events must be studied and analyzed properly in order to propose adequate flood control & protection measures in time to come. In this research paper, effort towards revised reservoir operation for Ukai Dam listed and discussed. Based on results of analysis, few optimal solutions for minimiza- tion of the Tapi River flood impacts- Surat (Gujarat) recommended.
