Palacode Town Panchayat Final Report Dharmapuri District, Tamil Nadu - 1
City Corporate cum Business Plan for Palacode Town Panchayat Final Report Dharmapuri District, Tamil Nadu - 1 - 1 PROJECT OVERVIEW 1.1 ASSIGNMENT BACKGROUND The World Bank has been a partner in urban reform program of Government of Tamil Nadu (GoTN) with engagement through Tamil Nadu Urban Development Project (TNUDP) - TNUDP-I, TNUDP-II and TNUDP-III (in progress). Towards taking forward the urban reform agenda, the GoTN is now implementing the TNUDP-III with focus on furthering the reforms initiated under TNUDP-II. The Tamil Nadu Urban Infrastructure Financial Services Limited (TNUIFSL), as a financial intermediary, intends to assist the Commissionerate of Town Panchayats (CTP) in strengthening and improving the financial position of its Town Panchayats for effective capital investment management and urban service delivery. These towns possess a good potential for implementation of such financial reforms for which it is essential to formulate a City Corporate Cum Business Plan. The CTP has started the process of capacity building in Town Panchayats through this process to enhance the vision of the ULBs in growth of their towns. 1.1.1 CITY CORPORATE PLAN A City Corporate Plan (CCP) is the ULB’s corporate strategy that presents both a vision of a desired future perspective for the city and the ULB’s organization, and mission statements on how the ULB, together with other stakeholders, intends to work towards achieving their long-term vision in the next ten years. A CCP translates mission into actions and actions into outcomes. When a CCP is developed in close consultation with, and endorsed by all relevant local stakeholders, a ULB and others who commit themselves to action can be held accountable for their mission statements, actions and expected outcomes. -

Pattern of Droughts and Survival Strategies of Farm Households in a Drought-Prone District in Tamil Nadu
Ind. in. ofAgri. Econ. Vol. 56, No. 4, Oct.-Dec. 2001 Pattern of Droughts and Survival Strategies of Farm Households in a Drought-Prone District in Tamil Nadu L. Umamaheswari, S. Krishnamoorthy,P. Nasurudeen and Roop Kumar Kolli* INTRODUCTION Droughts, as a recurring feature of Indian agriculture, pose an imminent threat to sustainable agricultural development. A knowledge of the pattern of drought occurrence provides an understanding of the risky situation to which farmers in drought-prone areas are exposed. The probability of drought occurrence in various parts of the country have been identified based on deficiency in rainfall (Khanna, 1989; Kumar and Kumar, 1989; Patil, 1992; Dubashi, 1992), deviation of rainfall index (Singh et al., 1990) and aridity index (Ram Mohan, 1984). Spectral method has also been used to study the periodicities of drought using Palmer Drought Index (Rao et al., 1973) and fluctuations in rainfall (Raghavendra, 1974; I3hukanlal and Gupta, 1991; Bhukanlal etal., 1993). Spectral techniques are applied under various contexts in analysing time-series data. Earlier, spectral methods were used to test the existence of business cycles (Granger, 1966), movement of stock market prices (Granger, 1968; Kulkarni, 1978) and recently to study behaviour of agricultural commodities traded in the futures market (Cargill and Rausser, 1970; Weiss, 1970; Hunt, 1974; Chambers and Woolverton, 1982) and fluctuations in climatic variables. In the present study, time- series analysis of moisture indices was done to understand and identify the drought cycle at the taluk level through Power spectrum technique. Drought in agriculture alters cropping pattern (Muranjan, 1992), causes steep reduction in farm production, employment days, income level, household consumption (Pandey and Upadhyay, 1979; Uddin, 1984; Acharya, 1992) and reduces the calorie intake (Pinstrup-Andersen and Mauricio, 1985). -

Department of Pharmacognosy, Cherraan’s College of Pharmacy, Coimbatore – 641039 Received : 12-1-2005 Accepted : 23-3-2005 ABSTRACT : A medicinal plants survey was done in various parts of Dharmapuri district, about 260 medicinal plants were identified and collected. Amongst them, few of the plants were less known but had remarkable medicinal properties, they were grouped together and are enumerated by the botanical name, family name, local name, locality and ethnomedical properties. INTRODUCTION Dharmapuri district is present in the middle correctly identified with the help of various to northwest part of Tamilnadu, surrounded floras and illustrations. For every plant, a by western Ghats and dense forests. The specimen herbarium was prepared and kept altitude ranges form 250 m to 300m in the for future reference. All those plants were city and 500 m to 900 m in the hills. The grouped together according to the main water source of this district is Cauvery alphabetical order in three categories such as river. The types of soils are black soil, botanical name, family and medicinal uses. slightly loamy soil, and also clay soil is The local name, medicinal importance and present in the lower altitudes. Medicinal locality of the plant were identified and plants survey were taken in various places of recorded with the help of village peoples. the district for one month, nearly 260 plants Out of these 260 plants, nearly 200 plants were collected, identified botanically and the are common, available in various places of traditional uses were recorded. -
