They provide food for many spices of fish and are therefore, vital role in the food web of ponds. A total of 16 Zooplankton taxa were observed in the lake and found dissimilarities in three seasons. During the study period the total numbers of 16 species are identified from the selected reservoir during the study period. Rotifer, Cladocera, copepod and Ostracoda. Seven number of Rotifer sp., Four number of Cladocera sps, three number of copepod sp. and Two number of Ostracoda sp. in the selected stations. In Rotifers were higher in pre-monsoon season Cladocera during monsoon season and Copepods in post-monsoon season were dominant taxa.

  • Medak District
    MEDAK DISTRICT We acknowledge the content from https://medak.telangana.gov.in/ The district derived its name from Medak, the then headquarters town of taluk of the same name. Medak was originally known as Methukudurgam which subsequently changed into Methuku due to the growth of fine and coarse rice in this area. Medak district became part of the Kakatiya Kingdom to the Bahmani Kingdom and later the Golconda Kingdom. Finally, on the fall of the Qutubshahi dynasty, it was annexed to the Mughal Empire. During the formation of Hyderabad State by Asif Jahi, this district was detached and included in the Nizam‟s Dominions. It finally became a part of Andhra Pradesh with effect from 1st November 1956 under the scheme of Re-organisation of States. The early history of Medak district is not very clear. Its political history, however, commences with the advent of the Mouryas who extended their sway to the south during the reign of Asoka. After the Mouryas, the Satavahanas gained prominence over the Deccan of which, Medak district formed a part. Several coins of the Satavahana rulers like Goutamiputra Satakarni, Vasishtiputra Pulumavi, Siv Sri, Yagna Sri Satakarni, etc., were unearthed during excavations at Kondapur village of Medak district. These archeological discoveries indicate the existence of a buried city of vast dimensions with a number of Chaityas, Viharas, Stupas and Monasteries. After the Satavahanas, the district passed under the sway of the Mahisha dynasty. Though as many as eighteen rulers ruled this district for a period of 383 years, only two rulers Mana and Yasa proved to be powerful.

  • 02.05.2016 'Kisan Vikas Chamber' Planned to Help Farmers Punjab Will Now Have
    02.05.2016 ‘Kisan Vikas Chamber’ planned to help farmers Punjab will now have ‘Kisan Vikas Chamber’, to be set up on the pattern of industry outfits like CII, Ficci and Assocham. The Chamber is being set up to bring State’s dwindling agrarian economy back on track. Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal on Sunday laid the foundation stone of Punjab Kisan Vikas Chamber (PKVC)—farmers’ advisory body to be constructed over two acres of land here in Aero City here. The Chief Minister said this farmers’ autonomous body shall certainly help them to do lobbying to get their genuine demands accepted at the Centre’s level through persuasion within the democratic means. He said this platform would prove to be a milestone in putting the views of eminent agriculture experts and economists across the state government as well as the Centre in streamlining the policies related to agriculture and allied farming. He said this Chamber on the pattern of industrial organisations like Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), PHD Chamber of Commerce, Associated Chambers of Commerce of India (ASSOCHAM) and Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FICCI) would provide affirmative say of peasantry in the policies and programmes related to agricultural and allied activities. The Chief Minister said this would be a non-political forum exclusively dedicated to the cause of farming community. Eminent academicians and experts in different fields of Agriculture and allied services have been nominated in this prestigious organisation, Mr Badal said, adding that this body would surely reach zenith of its glory under stewardship of Chairman Punjab Farmers’ Commission G S Kalkat as its patron and leading progressive farmer Kulwant Singh as its President.
