The Godavari Basin is the second largest basin after the Ganges basin and accounts for nearly 9.50% of the total geographical area of the country. The River rises in the Sahyadris, at an altitude of 1,067 m above mean sea level near Trimbakeshwar in the Nashik district of Maharashtra and flows across the Deccan Plateau from the Western to the Eastern Ghats. Rising in the Western Ghats, about 80km from the shore of the Arabian Sea, it flows for a total length of about 1,465 km in a general south-eastern direction through the States of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Karnataka, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh and finally drains into the Bay of Bengal at Antarvedi, East Godavari, Andhra Pradesh. At Dowlaiswaram, the river divides into two branches, the Gautami and Vasishta. Between the two, lies the Godavari Central Delta. The Gautami branch joins the Bay of Bengal flowing through the Yanam enclave of Union Territory of Puducherry. The Godavari River has a drainage area of 3,12,812 Sq.km. The length of Godavari River in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana is about 772 km. 1.2 BASIN FEATURES The Western Ghats (also called Sahyadri range), running parallel to the coast form a continuous watershed on the west. On the north, the basin is bounded by the Satmala hills, the Ajanta range and the Mahadeo hills. The basin is bounded on the east by Eastern Ghats and the Bay of Bengal. The Eastern Ghats are not so well defined or continuous as the Sahyadri range on the west. They rise from the plains of East Godavari and Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh to the level of the table land of Jeypore in Odisha. On the south, the Balaghat and the Mahadeo ranges stretching forth from the eastern flank of the Western Ghats and the Anantgiri and other ranges of the hills and ridges separate the Godavari basin from the Krishna basin. The salient features are tabulated in Table -01. GRMB Annual Report: 2018-19 | 1 (Source: WAPCOS) Table -01: Salient

  • Geology of Eastern Ghats in Andhra Pradesh
    GEOLOGY OF EASTERN GHATS IN ANDHRA PRADESH BY A. SRIRAaMADAS (Geology Departrael;t, Andhra UMversity, Waltair) Received October 2, 1967 (Communicated by Prof. C. S. Pi¢lmmuthu,t.A.sc.) ABSTRACT The lithology, structure, metamorphism and stratigraphy of the granite gneisses, charnoekite series, khondalite series and .granites occur- ring in the Eastern Ghats of Andhra Pradesh are described. The granite gneisses consist of the garnetiferous granite gneiss, the grey granite gneiss and porphyritic granite gneiss. The charnockite series consists of granite, diorite, gabbro, norite, amphibolite and pyroxenite. The khondalite series comprises gneisses, schists, quattzites, and granulites, metamorphosed from argillaceous, arenaceous and calcareous sediments. The granites include the pink granites and pegmatites. The formations are highly folded with thrusts and strike slip faults. The granite gneisses, charnockite series and khondalite series are metamorphosed to the gra. nulite facies, with a few members in the amphibolite facies and occasional members in the eclogite facies. Some granite gneisses are the oldest rocks present, and others contempolaneous with charnockite selies, which are themselves older than or contemporaneous with the khondalite series. The pink granites and pegmatites are the youngest rocks of the region. LOCATION TttE Eastern Ghats in Andhra Pradesh are situated between Latitudes 16° and 19 °, and Longitudes 80 ° and 85 ° , and stretch for about 350 miles from Srikakulam District in the north, through Visakhapatnam, Godavari and Krishna Districts, to Guntur District in the south. They include Kurupam, Madugula, Anantagiri, Gudem, Chodavaram, Papikonda, Kondapalli and Kondavidu hill ranges. GEOLOGICAL FORMATIONS Fermor ~1936) included the Eastern Ghsts in the garnetiferous type (manganese ore) marble provine belonging to the charnockite region.
