BACKGROUND The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) assists the government of India through the National Hydroelectric Power Corporation Limited (NHPC) since 1990. NHPC is responsible for the construction and management of the Uri Hydropower Project in Kashmir. The National Board of Fisheries has an assignment to prepare and conduct a programme for aquatic Environmental Impact Assessment (ElA) of the Uri Hydropower Project in Kashmir, India. The overall objective is to make a final analysis of the impact on the aquatic fauna and to evaluate the impacts of the Uri Project on the aquatic ecosystem, with particular reference to fish and bottom fauna. The immediate objectives are to implement fish and bottom fauna surveys and fish collection and classification investigations, before and after the construction of the Uri hydropower plant. The studies started in 1990 and are expected to be concluded in 1998. Within the Board, the Institute of Freshwater Research (IFR) and SWEDMAR, the Board's international consultancy group, are responsible for the coordination, planning, implementation and administration of the programme. In the mid term, SWEDMAR has been assigned to prepare an Initial Aquatic Environmental Assessment Report, within the framework of the programme. Dr. Lennart Nyman was appointed to carry out the task which resulted in the SWEDMAR Working Paper 4/95: Environmental Impact Assessment: Uri Hydroelectric Power Project on River Jhelum in Kashmir, India. The Working Paper can be requested from SWEDMAR's library. This ANNEX was compiled by SWEDMAR and contains raw data and background working documents and papers. The data has been collected in the period 1990-1994 by staff of the Institute of Freshwater Research (Swedish National Board of Fisheries), the Swedish Museum of Natural History, the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency, Limnodata HB Consultants, the P.G. Department of Zoology, University of Kashmir and the National Hydroelectric Power Corporation Limited, India (NHPC).

To evaluate these effects four data collection surveys (three before and one after the finalizing of the construction work) have been planned. These surveys include fish- and bottom-fauna sampling and should focus on, not only the effects due to the construction in water, but also on the increased waist load from the necessary new camps. The result from these surveys will, besides describing the effects, also increase the knowledge of aquatic species through identification lists. Such knowledge is today limited and one on the main time consuming parts of this study. This report contains only the results from the first survey conducted in November 1990 regarding the fish. The team participating in this survey consisted of Olof Enderlein (teamleader) and HSkan Wickstrom (Institute of Freshwater Research, Drottningholm, Sweden) Anders Silfvergrip (Swedish Museum of National History, Stockholm, Sweden), Per- Erik Lingdell and Eva Engblom (Limnodata, Tyreso, Sweden), A.R. Yousuf (University of Kashmir, Srinagar, India), S.S. Bist and Shahid Ali Khan (National Hydroelectric Power Corporation, India). Material and methods Sampling of both fish- and bottomfauna took place at 13 sites (Fig. 1). According to the original plan only one site, located in the deepest part of Lake Wular, was excluded.

SRINACAR River IJumvar The fish was sampled by 1.5 m deep multimesh gillnets at site 6, 7, 10 and 11. Gillnets were also set at site 8 but there the nets were lost. Each one of these multimesh gillnets consisted of 14 three m long pannels of different mesh-sizes ranging from 6.25 mm to 75 mm (from knot to knot). The nets were set in the afternoon and lifted in the morning as late and early as the curfew permitted. Site 1, 2, 3a and b, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8a and b and 12 were fished by means of an electrofishing unit (Safari Research 330 C). The area fished was calculated from measurements made after each terminated fishing. Only one site (7) was fished three consecutive times and the constants from this fishing were used to calculate the mean abundance per 100 m2 for the other sites. Site 11 was also fished by long-line baited by fish. No catch was recorded from that gear. Conductivity, air- and water-temperature, pH and Oxygen were measured at each site. All fish caught were classified to species or as close as could be done in the field and measured in length (total length) to the nearest mm. This was true for all fish exept Puntius sp and Lubco sp in Lake Wular and Puntius sp in Lake Manasbal, that were subsampled. The mean weight of the fish from each species or group of species were also recorded. The main bulk of fish was after that the field measurements were taken preserved in formalin (4%) and taken to Sweden to verify the classification to species. The survey was spared from heavy rain that could have omitted electrofishing and the waterflow was low with a mean of 180 m3/sec (NHPC, Baranmla). Results The catch as total and average per net in the multimesh gillnets is listed in Table 1. Site 6 was fished two times, the first with 2 and the second with 4 nets, just below the barrage. The standard procedure in inventories with this type of gear is to stratify the depth in strata, normally 0-6 m and 6-12 m. The only waterbody in the survey-area with a waterdepth exeeding 6 m was Lake Manasbal. Two nets were here set at 0-6 m and the other two at 6-12 m. Due to lack of oxygen in the deeper strata no fish were caught there. Considering only the fish- carrying waterdepth, were two nets fished, the actual average per net should then be twice the value in Table 1 and resemble the relative densities found in Lake Wular. The most commonly caught fish in both Lake Wular and Lake Manasbal was Puntius sp. That was also the smallest sized fish caught (Fig 2). Another small sized fish, Labro sp (Fig 2) was common in Lake Wular but not in Lake Manasbal. The two introduced species Carassius carassius and Cyprinus carpio were only caught in the two lakes and where Carassius carassius dominated in the catch of bigger sized fishies (Fig 2). The Schizothorax group of species, of which 10 species have been identified, dominated the catch in both the gillnets and by electrofishing in the Jehlum river (Table !, 2) except in the slow- flowing outlet from Lake Wular (site 8). Of the tributaries Buniyar nalla (3a and b) and River Sindh (12) were fastflowing and with clear water. In both of these waterbodies few Schizothorax species compared to the main river were caught (Table 1, 2, 3). The River Jehlum could only be electro-fished to a maximum depth of 1.6 m and that meant only 6-15% of the total width of the river. The tributaries could in all cases be fished across. The densities of fish at the eletrofished sites have been calculated in numbers per 100 nv (Zippin) (Table 3) but the data are only valid for (he shallower river-side along River Jehlum contrary to the full width in the tributaries. A substantial part of the fishies stunned with the electro-fishing unit were tossed. In the tributaries with clear-water these lossies were between (>% (site 8b) and 50% (site 12). In the River Jehknn these lossics were impossible to estimate i\\.\c to the turbidity of the water. Table 1. Total catch in the gillnets and the average per net in November 1990.

  • The Status of the Endangered Freshwater Fishes in China and the Analysis of the Endangered Causes Institute of Hydrobiology
    The status of the endangered freshwater fishes in China and The analysis of the endangered causes HE Shunping, CIIEN Yiyu Institute of Hydrobiology, CAS, Wuhan, ITubei Province, 430072 Abstract More than 800 species of freshwater fishes are precious biological resources in inland water system of China. Among them, there are a great number of endemic and precious group, and a lot of monotypic genera and species. Recently, owing to the synthetic effects of the natural and human-beings, many of these fishes gradually became endangered. The preliminary statistic result indicates that 92 species are endangered fishes and account for 10% of the total freshwater fishes in China. For the purpose of protection of the biodiversity of fishes, it is necessary to analyse these causes which have led the fishes to become endangered. This report could be used as a scientific reference for researching and saving the endemic precious freshwater fishes in China. Key words Endangered freshwater fishes, Endangered causes, China In the process of the evolution of living things, along with the origin of life, the extinction of life also existed. In the long_ life history, the speciation and the extinction of living things often keep a relative balance. As time goes on, especially after by the impact of human beings activity of production and life, the pattern of the biodiversity were changed or damaged, more or less. At last, in the modern society, human beings activity not only accelerate the progress of society and the development of economy, but also, as a special species, become the source of disturbing_ to other species.

As part of its natural heritage conservation program, INTACH Kashmir takes up restoration of springs around Manasbal Lake as a pilot. In the initial phase of restoration drive, 50 springs were restored around the lake. The life line of any community is water. In Kashmir, nature has bestowed with a rich resource of water in the form of lakes, rivers and above all springs. These springs were a perennial water source for local communities. Unfortunately most and a large number of these springs are facing extinction due to neglect which results water shortages in villages and at some places we have water refugees or climate migrants. The springs are critical part of our survival and needs to be preserved. Keeping in view the importance of preservation of these natural resources which is our natural heritage also, INTACH Kashmir initiated a drive to the springs around Manasbal lake which are on the verge of extinction. restore the springs.

  • AFSPA Is a Great Issue for the Kashmiri, Not Art
    Interview AFSPA is a great issue for the Kashmiri, not Art. 370; 10-12 States enjoy similar protection: Moosa Raza, former J&K Chief Secretary SAPTARSHI BHATTACHARYA PDP supporters dancing during an election rally in Chadoora Budgam district central Kashmir on Saturday, April, 13, 2019. Photo: Nissar Ahmad The conflict in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) has seen many elections. The State sends six MPs to the 543-strong Lok Sabha but 'Kashmir' adds significantly to the electoral rhetoric of political parties that battle for power. In this General Election, the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) pitched the abrogation of Article 370 and the terror attack in Pulwama to the centrestage of the election campaign. This in turn has resulted in shrill positions in the public domain. Moosa Raza, former Chief Secretary, J&K, who hails from Tamil Nadu, served as an Indian Administrative Service officer in Gujarat before being posted to J&K, and a Padma Bhushan awardee in 2010, is in conversation with Saptarshi Bhattacharya, Senior Coordinator, The Hindu Centre for Politics and Public Policy, Chennai, on the manner in which the Kashmir conflict in particular and Hindu-Muslim enmity in other parts of the country such as Gujarat, have been allowed to fester. Raza gives the historical backdrop and the political relevance of Articles 370 and 35-A, the steps that were proposed during his tenure as Chief Secretary to address the issues relating to the rise and spread of militancy, and the manner in which the decades-long conflict should be approached both by political leaders and the general public for effective conflict resolution.

    Bull. Fr. Pêche Piscic. (1994) 334 : 191 -199 — 191 — RÉVISION CARYOLOGIQUE DES BARBINÉS ET HYPOTHÈSES CONCERNANT LA PLÉSIOMORPHIE POSSIBLE DE L'ÉTAT POLYPLOÏDE CHEZ LES CYPRINIDÉS. Maria Joao COLLARES-PEREIRA Departamento de Zoologia e Antropologia, Faculdade de Ciências, Campo Grande, C2 - 1700 Lisboa, Portugal. Reçu le 19 novembre 1993 Received 19 November, 1993 Accepté le 24 octobre 1994 Accepted 24 October, 1994 RÉSUMÉ Le modèle d'évolution caryologique des Cyprinidés, selon lequel le nombre polyploïde 2n=100 doit être considéré comme plésiomorphe pour la famille, en opposition à la théorie orthodoxe, semble se vérifier par la publication récente de nouvelles données concernant les nombres chromosomiques de Cyprininés d'Afrique et d'Asie du sud. L'hypothèse d'un ancêtre de type Cyprininé, appartenant probablement à une lignée proche des Barbinés, ainsi que l'existence d'une polyploïdie fonctionnant comme un «système-ouvert» est suggérée sur la base de caractères caryoévolutifs. L'importance de ce phénomène dans le processus évolutif de quelques lignées justifie un appel à l'inclusion future de l'information caryologique dans les travaux de systématique évolutive. En effet, les progrès actuels en cytogénétique moléculaire, en rendant possible la reconnaissance d'homologies chromosomiques interspécifiques, permettront probablement de clarifier les relations phylogénétiques au sein même des Cypriniformes.

ABSTRACT The new model of karyological evolution of Cyprinidae which proposes that the polyploid value 2n=100 should be regarded as plesiomorphic for the family, contrary to the orthodox theory, seems to be reinforced by some new data on chromosome numbers of African and South-Asian cyprinins.
