Inter Agency Group, Tamil Nadu Inter Agency Group, TN Cyclone Gaja Assessment Report Page 3 of 42 1. Executive summary Cyclone Gaja, which made landfall near Vedaranyam in Nagapattinam in the wee hours of November 16, has claimed left 63 lives across the state, according to a statement released by the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu on Sunday. The cyclone, which went on to affect many other districts, including Tiruvarur, Thanjavur, Pudukkottai, Dindigul and Trichy, created a huge loss of property. It left 12,298 cattle dead, Nearly 278,824 houses were completely damaged and the roofs of 62,996 huts were either fully or partially damaged. It uprooted about 1,132,686 forest and fruit bearing trees, which was the source of livelihood for agricultural labourers and small famers. The electricity was totally shut down in the worst affected districts of Nagapattiam, Thiruvarur, Puthukottai and Tanjore and would possibly need a month or more to restore power. However individual household connections could take much more time than predicted. The affected people who mostly belong to the SC and MBC communities are forced to take shelter in the make shift relief camps, schools and cyclone shelters. After a gap of one week, as the severity of the disaster was brought to the knowledge of the common people, thanks to the social media, humanitarian aid began to flow though in a limited way from among the neighbouring districts and states. The aids materials keep landing in the villages on the national or state highways. The interior villages especially the Dalit colonies are still left without substantial support. Even the other villages the support is not sufficient Against this background, IAG (Inter Agency Group) conducted a rapid assessment using the mobile technology – Kobo Collect. The survey covered all the worst affected six districts with nearly 200 - 240 households in each district. The total number of households surveyed was 1321 and 188 Community Leader were surveyed. Given the time frame and the availability of the human resources it was considerably a significant step in understanding the situation of the affected communities. The survey brought to light the following key points: FOOD: The Assessment reveals that 70% of people have two meals a day. Under the leadership of community leaders, preparation of food is taking place almost in all the affected villages, mostly in the relief camps. However the quality of food, hygienic preparation of meals and safe protection of cooked food remain a major concern. The children below the age of 5 are also eating the same food and it affects their health. As it continues to rain, the people are unable to return to their damaged homes and still depends upon the cooked food commonly prepared, so the stock of food materials are fast lessening in the relief camps. There is scarcity of baby foods. People drink water directly from the hand pumps. There is no facility or support for treatment of water for drinking. WASH: In water, sanitation and health, there is a need to curtail possible outbreak of diseases and loss of human life resulting from diseases and hunger. People by and large have no access to safe drinking water because the water bodies or water sources have been either damaged or contaminated. Added to this is delay in restoring electricity despite the efforts put in by the government, the water scarcity still prevails. Besides the fact of 70% of households having no sanitation facility, the people staying in camps practice open defecation, which makes life harder for women. Moreover it will accelerate the outbreak of diseases. People’s awareness or knowledge in public health and healthy eating habits needs to be increased. The food which the people in the affected villages are left to eat is not wholesome or nutritious; they merely eat rice with some curry. The children, lactating mothers, pregnant women have no safe place or security. Inter Agency Group, TN Cyclone Gaja Assessment Report Page 4 of 42 Shelter: With the wind speed of unimaginable proportion, the thatched or tiled houses bore the brunt of the wind power. People are unable to stay in their respective home as the roofs of their homes are fully or partially damaged. It has compelled them to take accommodation in the make shift shelters or in the homes of relative far away from their hamlets. The conditions in the shelter homes are not apprehensible as there is no adequate space for all who have taken shelter and there exists no private space for lactating mother or for pregnant women. As there is no electricity even in the relief camps, life is made miserable. Livelihood: It will take years together to rebuild their livelihood. Most of the people who depend on horticulture and agriculture are left with no other option as their horticulture crops are 90% destroyed. The coastal belt is known for production of rare varieties of mangoes, tamarind and jamun. With the destruction of the horticulture crops, the people have not only lost their livelihood, but would need technical and strategic support from aid and research agencies to revive the lost variety of horticulture crops. The farmers and agricultural labourers in the coastal belt were seen as credit worthy due to the horticulture crops and now with the loss of the trees, the people have no means of livelihood. After tsunami, the fishermen were the most affected lot, as they lost their boats, nets and fishing gears. Children & Education: The children from the affected revenue villages have not returned to school. Most of the schools are now functioning as make shift relief camps. The children too lost their learning materials. The children are currently undergoing huge trauma as their counterparts in the non-affected avenues continue to go to school. Non availability of electricity makes life harder for the children. The children are left to literally beg along with the adults for aids. The sight of the children waiting to receive aids along the road pains every one. Markets: The local markets have literally collapsed. The people depended upon the petty shops and other village business establishments for making the basic needs available. With the collapse of the local markets, the people have nowhere to go. Thus, it remains a huge challenge for aid agencies to revive the dead local markets. Here again the delay in restoring

Arts College for Women(A), Pudukkottai ARCHAEOLOGICALLY EXCAVATED SITES IN TIRUCHIRAPPLLI Tiruchirappalli is reputed for the antiquity of its civilization and situated on the riverbanks of Cauvery. It has been the centre of many empires and battlefields, besides being an important strategic place. It is also chiefly attractive for its remarkable Rock and the group of temples clustered on and around it. Tiruchirappalli was a part of Uraiyur till the close of the 14th century and had no separate identity. In the writings of early Greek travelers, Uraiyur is figured frequently. The Anthor of the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea mentioned Argaru (Uraiyur) as the centre of trade1. It is also referred as Koliyur in the Sangam literature2. „It would appear that, up to Viswanatha‟s reign Uraiyur was the capital of the country, and that the he found Tiruthirappalli at all events, fortified and greatly enlarged it.‟3 Antiquity of Tiruthirappalli To analyse the antiquity of Tiruthirappalli, one has to study thoroughly the geological factors which shaped the destiny of Tiruthirappalli. The present Volume XI, Issue IX, September/2019 Page No:3603 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO: 0886-9367 geographical features, perhaps may give some scope to the study of per-history. Though hereditary and environmental factors to a large extent shaped the life of the people in the per-historic and historic periods, it was not so in the geological age.

Government recently launched some major schemes like crop insurance, per drop more crop, Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojna to enhance the productivity of the crops. Initiatives like organic farming and increase in the production of pulses are also been taken. Geographical Information System (GIS) plays a vital role to use the latest technologies useful for the decision makers can visualize all the farmlands with their allied information and current situation on one click. The tasks like yield estimation and crop damage assessment done by traditional means take month or two and a whole lot of manpower to complete the work.

ABSTRACT: Walaszczyk, I., Kennedy, W.J. and Paranjape, A.R. 2018. Inoceramids and associated ammonite faunas from the uppermost Turonian–lower Coniacian (Upper Cretaceous) of the Anaipadi–Saradamangalam region of the Cauvery Basin, south-east India. Acta Geologica Polonica, 68 (4), 663–687. Warszawa. The lower (but not lowermost) part of the Upper Cretaceous Anaipadi Formation of the Trichinopoly Group in the area between Kulatur, Saradamangalam and Anaipadi, in the south-western part of the Cauvery Basin in south- east India yielded rich inoceramid and ammonite faunas. The ammonites: Mesopuzosia gaudama (Forbes, 1846), Damesites sugata (Forbes, 1846), Onitschoceras sp., Kossmaticeras (Kossmaticeras) theobal dianum (Stoliczka, 1865), Lewesiceras jimboi (Kossmat, 1898), Placenticeras kaffrarium Etheridge, 1904, and Pseudoxybeloceras (Schlueterella) sp., are characteristic of the Kossmaticeras theobaldianum Zone. The absence of Peroniceras (P.) dravidicum (Kossmat, 1895) indicates the presence of only lower part of this zone, referred to the nominative Kossmaticeras theobaldianum Subzone at the localities studied.
