Andhra Pradesh SECOND FIVE-YEAR PLAN 1 ^ - 1 9 6 1 Andhra Pradesh Planning and Development Department Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad 1957 PREFACE With the Reorganisation of States from 1st November 1956, the need for an integrated Plan of Andhra Pradesh comprising the plan of erstwhile Andhra and that relating to the Telangana region of erstwhile Hyderabad was increasingly felt. After the formation of Andhra Pradesh, we could only obtain a tentative break-up of the Com­ posite Hyderabad State Plan. The allocation of the pkn of erstwhile Hyderabad between Telangana, Kar­ nataka and Maiathwada has been approved only recently by the Planning Commission. An attempt has, therefore, been made to brmg together the revised plan of the Ardhra region and the plan for the Telangana region in order to provide the plan of Andhra Pradesh and the result is the present publication. This publication is divided into three parts. Part I deals with the General aspects and gives a bird’s-eye view of the economy of the State together with an outline of the Second Plan and how it is proposed to be financed. Part II gives in detail the schemes proposed to be im­ plemented along with the targets programmed to be achieved and Part III contains statistical appendices rekvant to the plan schemes. Schemes included in the plan and not yet taken over for execution in 1956-57 or 1957-58 will have to be im­ plemented in the next three years. Although the plan is flexible to admit of changes in the schemes included in the plan, the greatest amount of care has to be exercised by the Departments in proposing changes. There are, naturally, uncertainties attached to the various estimates made for the Five-Year Period. Some of the programmes set forth in the plan may take a little more time for com­ pletion while in a few cases they may be completed earlier. Thm there are developments at home and abroad, mostly economic, which may necessitate adjustments in the Pkn. The State Government operates in terms of an annual budget which offers a natural opportunity for re\iewing and adjusting the phasing indicated in the iii IV Five-Year Plan. It is hoped that such opportunity will be availed of by Departments in good time for a thorougli review of the schemes and their phasing. Hyderabad C. N a r a s im h a m , 10th Julpt 1957.

  • Hyderabad's Musi River
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Hyderabad’s Musi River: Why Do Technocratic Solutions Fail in Safeguarding Urban Waterbodies? VIKAS SEHRA Vikas Sehra ([email protected]) is with the Centre for the Study of Regional Development, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. Vol. 55, Issue No. 10, 07 Mar, 2020 In complete contrast to its past glory, the Musi river which traverses through Hyderabad city, is degraded by indiscriminate disposal of waste and massive encroachments. The Telangana government had announced plans in 2017 to revitalise the river through a large- scale riverfront development project. By revisiting similar initiatives taken up earlier to resuscitate the Musi, the article argues that these techno-managerial solutions completely disregard notions of commons, only to normalise their exploitation. On 28 September 1908, water levels in Musi river rose to 16 feet and completely flooded Hyderabad, leaving behind a trail of death and destruction. Encroached and concretised, the river has shrunk into a drain ever since. Today, it crawls through the city carrying a deadly mix of drain water interspersed with patches of cattle grass, solid wastes, and poisonous fumes. To revitalise the river, the Telangana government announced the Musi Riverfront Development Project in 2017. The degrading condition of such ecological commons (such as waterbodies, air, wetlands, etc) in cities brings focus back to Hardin’s "The Tragedy of the Commons" (1968). According to Hardin, in the absence of well-defined ownership, individuals maximise their self- interests, which eventually results in the overexploitation of commons. But Hardin’s conceptualisation was eventually criticised, and many scholars over time pointed out its ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 limitations.

  • Chapter – 10 Power
    Chapter – 10 Power 10.1 General As explained earlier, the Godavari (Polavaram) – Krishna (Vijayawada) link canal follows the same alignment as that of the Right Main Canal of the Polavaram Project proposed by Government of Andhra Pradesh across the river Godavari. There are no drops along the link canal and, therefore, no power generation is contemplated on the link canal. However, the power generation proposed by the State Government at Polavaram project is briefly discussed in this Chapter along with the status of power generation in the State of Andhra Pradesh. The effect of inter-basin water transfers on the power generation at Polavaram is also discussed at the end of the Chapter. 10.2 Present Status of Power Development in the State The total installed capacity in the State of Andhra Pradesh as on 31.3.1998 is 6380 MW and the share of the State from Central Sector is 897 MW. The category wise break-up of installed capacity is given in Table 10.1.
