Karnataka Tourism Vision Group 2014 Report
Karnataka Tourism Vision group 2014 report KARNATAKA TOURISM VISION GROUP (KTVG) Recommendations to the GoK: Jan 2014 Task force KTVG Karnataka Tourism Vision Group 2014 Report 1 FOREWORD Tourism matters. As highlighted in the UN WTO 2013 report, Tourism can account for 9% of GDP (direct, indirect and induced), 1 in 11 jobs and 6% of world exports. We are all aware of amazing tourist experiences globally and the impact of the sector on the economy of countries. Karnataka needs to think big, think like a Nation-State if it is to forge ahead to realise its immense tourism potential. The State is blessed with natural and historical advantage, which coupled with a strong arts and culture ethos, can be leveraged to great advantage. If Karnataka can get its Tourism strategy (and brand promise) right and focus on promotion and excellence in providing a wholesome tourist experience, we believe that it can be among the best destinations in the world. The impact on job creation (we estimate 4.3 million over the next decade) and economic gain (Rs. 85,000 crores) is reason enough for us to pay serious attention to focus on the Tourism sector. The Government of Karnataka had set up a Tourism Vision group in Oct 2013 consisting of eminent citizens and domain specialists to advise the government on the way ahead for the Tourism sector. In this exercise, we had active cooperation from the Hon. Minister of Tourism, Mr. R.V. Deshpande; Tourism Secretary, Mr. Arvind Jadhav; Tourism Director, Ms. Satyavathi and their team. The Vision group of over 50 individuals met jointly in over 7 sessions during Oct-Dec 2013. -

The region where two rivers joins is called as Doab. Shorapur Doab in Yadgiri district where river Bhima joins the Krishna. Raichur Doab where river Tungabhadra joins Krishna, the plateau of Raichur Doab & Tungabhdra referred as Rayalaseema. Geographical Classification of Karnataka 1. Coastal region 2. Sahyadri Mountains /Western Ghats 3. Northern Plain 4. Southern Plain Importance of Geographical Features : Richard Hakluyat, pointed out that “The Geography & Chronology are the Sun & Moon, the right and left eye of History”. Human history in a region is shaped by the physical features. The growth of civilization is depend upon the climate, fertility of soil, natural barriers. Geographically Karnataka is one of the oldest part of Deccan plateau. The history and culture of Karnataka has been molded by the Geographical features. -

SARATE2* 1BIRBAL SAHNI INSTITUTE OF PALAEOSCIENCES, 53 UNIVERSITY ROAD, LUCKNOW-226007 2PLOT NO. 27, 3rd BUS STOP, GOPAL NAGAR, NAGPUR-440022 *Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Palynofloral and palynofacies investigations have been carried out in borehole NP-74 from a Nand–Besur Block of the Nagpur District, Bandar Coalfield, Wardha Basin, Maharashtra. Palynofloral qualitative and quantitative analysis has revealed two distinct palynoassemblages I and II. The abundance of Scheuringipollenites spp. (40-51%) and sub dominance of Parasaccites spp. (25-30%) characterizes Palynoassemblage-I (277-283m). The dominance of Scheuringipollenites spp. (30-78%) along with Faunipollenites spp., Striatopodocarpites spp. and taeniates (13-28%) demarcates Palynoassemblage-II (102.5-271m). Palynoassemblage-I and II show its resemblance to the upper Karharbari and lower Barakar palynoflora of the early Permian age, respectively. On the basis of the recovered palynoflora, Artinskian age is assigned to these palynoassemblages (I and II). Four genera of megaspores have also been recovered at a depth of 202 m. By the palynofacies investigations, five distinct Palynofacies Association (A-E) has been identified. Palynofacies Association A is demarked by the predominance of the spore-pollen; Palynofacies Association B is characterized by the dominance of structured terrestrial; Palynofacies Association C is dominated by charcoal; Palynofacies Association D is distinguished by the dominance of degraded organic matter and Palynofacies Association E is marked by the predominance of amorphous organic matter. -

Mahesh Bilwa * Nagamadhu. C. J Prameela. M Department of Earth Science, University of Mysore, Manasagangotri, Mysore – 570 006, Karnataka, Ind ia *E-mail: [email protected] -mysore.ac.in, [email protected] Abstract Palynological investigation of Lower Gondwana sediments of Goutham Khani Open Cast Mine (GKOCM) from Kothagudem sub basin of Godav ari Valley Coalfield, Andhra Pradesh of Peninsular India have revealed two palynoassemblages are related to Early Permian (Barakar Formation). Palynoassemblage – A abundantly occurrence of Scheuringipollenites along with other common taxa like Parasaccites, Ibisporites , Primuspollenites, Sulcatisporites, Rhizomaspora, Densipollenites and Corisaccites and Palynoassemblage – B dominated by Scheuringipollenites along with sub dominance of Faunipollenites, Striatopodocarpites , Parasaccites, Striatites, Tiwariasporis, Rhizomaspora, Verticipollenites , Platysaccus, Primuspollenites, Lunatisporites , Latosporites, Ibisporites and Distriatites. The above demarcated palynoassemblages are applied to correlate with other horizons of Lower Gondwana deposits of India and a lso to fix the relative age for the sediments under investigation. Key words : Permian Age, Lower Gondwana, Palynoassemblage, Godavari Valley Coalfield, Sothern India. 1.Introduction Gondwana sediments of India can be broadly classified under two main geographic areas like Peninsular and Extra Peninsular regions. Presently based o n Gondwana floral remains like mega and micro fossil evidences can be applied to divide in to Lower Gondwana and Upper Gondwana sometimes Middle Gondwana with remains of Dicardium floral (mixed characters of both Monocot and Dicots) remains. Godavari Vall ey coalfield is a store house for non coking coal varity in Southern India. -
