GRMB is funded by the States of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. As a part of its mandate, GRMB makes technical appraisal of DPRs of Irrigation Projects in the light of GWDT Award for giving technical clearance to new projects in Godavari River basin. Over the past one year, GRMB has grown in strength and functionality. More officers – Member, Expert Member and Under Secretary (Finance) have joined the organisation enhancing its strength to better run its technical, electrical & finance units. Also, the consensus and cooperation of the concerned State Governments has played an important role in making policy decisions of the Board.

The Godavari Basin is the second largest basin and accounts for nearly 9.50% of the total geographical area of the country. The River originates 80 kilometres from the Arabian Sea in the Western Ghats of Central India from Brahmagiri near Trimbakeshwar near district Nashik in Maharashtra at an elevation of about 1067 m. The Godavari and its tributaries are an interstate river system, traverse through the states of Maharashtra, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka for a length of about 1465 km and finally drain 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 length of Godavari River in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana is about 772 km. The Godavari River has a drainage area of 3,12,812 Sq.km.

  • 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.

  • Discourses of Merit and Agrarian Morality in Telugu Popular Cinema
    Communication, Culture & Critique ISSN 1753-9129 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Looking Back at the Land: Discourses of Agrarian Morality in Telugu Popular Cinema and Information Technology Labor Padma Chirumamilla School of Information, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA This article takes Anand Pandian’s notion of “agrarian civility” as a lens through which we can begin to understand the discourses of morality, merit, and exclusivity that color both popular Telugu film and Telugu IT workers’ understanding of their technologically enabled work. Popular Telugu film binds visual qualities of the landscape and depictions of heroic technological proficiency to protagonists’ internal dispositions and moralities. I examine the portrayal of the landscape and of technology in two Telugu films: Dhee … kotti chudu,and Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana, in order to more clearly discern the nature of this agrarian civility and—more importantly for thinking about Telugu IT workers— to make explicit its attribution of morality to “merit” and to technological proficiency. Keywords: Information Technology, Morality, Telugu Cinema, Merit, Agrarian Civility. doi:10.1111/cccr.12144 InachasesceneinthepopularTelugufilmDhee … kotti chudu,anameless gangster—having just killed off his rival’s family—is fleeing to Bangalore from Hyderabad, driving along roads surrounded by rocky, barren outcrops, and shriveled patches of trees. The rival’s boss confronts him unexpectedly on the deserted road, quickly and seemingly instantaneously surrounding him with his own men and vehicles, before killing him in retaliation. The film then quickly moves on to its main character, a rather comedic scam artist, and its main spaces, in the city of Hyderabad.1 This particular stretch of barren landscape—scene to the violence that underlies a significant revenge plot woven into the film’s story—is not returned to.

Department, M.S.Poly, Beed, MH, India ABSTRACT Power Sector in India has grown significantly from independence both in the installed electricity generating capacity and transmission & distribution (T&D) system. The total power generating capacity of (utilities & non utilities) has increased from meager 1362 MW in 1947 to 267 GW at the end of March, 2015. The per capita electricity consumption which was mere 16.3 kWh in1947 has increased to 1010 KW h in 2014-15. With a production of 1,031 TWh. India is the third largest producer and fourth largest consumer of electricity in the world. It has fifth largest installed capacity in the world. Maharashtra plays very vital role in the evolution of the Indian power sector. As of 2012, Maharashtra was the largest power generating state in India, with installed electricity generation capacity with 26,838 MW. The state forms a major constituent of the western grid of India, which now comes under the North, East, West and North Eastern (NEWNE) grids of India. Maharashtra Power Generation Company controls and runs thermal power plants.

Ruling by canal: Governance and system-level design characteristics of large-scale irrigation infrastructure in India and Uzbekistan. Water Alternatives 9(2): 222-249 Ruling by Canal: Governance and System-Level Design Characteristics of Large-Scale Irrigation Infrastructure in India and Uzbekistan Peter P. Mollinga Department of Development Studies, SOAS University of London, London, UK; [email protected] Gert Jan Veldwisch Water Resources Management Group of Wageningen University, Wageningen, The Netherlands; [email protected] ABSTRACT: This paper explores the relationship between governance regime and large-scale irrigation system design by investigating three cases: 1) protective irrigation design in post-independent South India; 2) canal irrigation system design in Khorezm Province, Uzbekistan, as implemented in the USSR period, and 3) canal design by the Madras Irrigation and Canal Company, as part of an experiment to do canal irrigation development in colonial India on commercial terms in the 1850s-1860s. The mutual shaping of irrigation infrastructure design characteristics on the one hand and management requirements and conditions on the other has been documented primarily at lower, within-system levels of the irrigation systems, notably at the level of division structures. Taking a 'social construction of technology' perspective, the paper analyses the relationship between technological structures and management and governance arrangements at irrigation system level. The paper finds qualitative differences in the infrastructural configuration of the three irrigation systems expressing and facilitating particular forms of governance and rule, differences that matter for management and use, and their effects and impacts.
