  • A Study to Detect Urban Changes and Its Relationship to Flash Flood in Thiruvanathapuram
    GRD Journals- Global Research and Development Journal for Engineering | Volume 2 | Issue 8 | July 2017 ISSN: 2455-5703 A Study to Detect Urban Changes and its Relationship to Flash Flood in Thiruvanathapuram Divya Shaji Dr. J. E. M. Macwan PG Student Professor and Head of Department Department of Civil Engineering Department of Civil Engineering SVNIT, Surat, Gujarat, India SVNIT, Surat, Gujarat, India Abstract Thiruvanathapuram is the capital city of Kerala state. As the city is completely effected by flood, but within in the local bodies there are few low-lying areas which are susceptible to flash flood. The urban expansion which due to the increase in population are affected by the lack of proper drainage system and also due to the uncontrolled increase in concrete space, which leads to the encroachment happening near the canal area, decrease in land such as paddy field, ponds etc. Landsat 5 and 8 images are used in the analysis to detect land use changes in the city, which gives the idea of conversion of vegetation land to build up. Digital elevation model is used in the preparation of contour maps. The result of this study shows use of Landsat images in detecting the land use changes, the blue green network which has been mentioned in the master plan of Thiruvanathapuram are also discussed and the various measures which to be adopted to make the city stable to urban flash flood. Keywords- Land Use, GIS and RS, SUDS, Contour, Urban Flash Flood, Urbanisation I. INTRODUCTION Urbanization is the concentration of population due to the process of movement and redistribution among people.

  • Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014
    WID.world WORKING PAPER N° 2019/05 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee Amory Gethin Thomas Piketty March 2019 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee, Amory Gethin, Thomas Piketty* January 16, 2019 Abstract This paper combines surveys, election results and social spending data to document the long-run evolution of political cleavages in India. From a dominant- party system featuring the Indian National Congress as the main actor of the mediation of political conflicts, Indian politics have gradually come to include a number of smaller regionalist parties and, more recently, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). These changes coincide with the rise of religious divisions and the persistence of strong caste-based cleavages, while education, income and occupation play little role (controlling for caste) in determining voters’ choices. We find no evidence that India’s new party system has been associated with changes in social policy. While BJP-led states are generally characterized by a smaller social sector, switching to a party representing upper castes or upper classes has no significant effect on social spending. We interpret this as evidence that voters seem to be less driven by straightforward economic interests than by sectarian interests and cultural priorities. In India, as in many Western democracies, political conflicts have become increasingly focused on identity and religious-ethnic conflicts

  • CHAPTER-S EMERGENCE and EVOLUTION of SIKKIM DEMOCRATIC FRONT AS a POLITICAL PARTY CHAPTER 5 Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front As a Political Party
    CHAPTER-S EMERGENCE AND EVOLUTION OF SIKKIM DEMOCRATIC FRONT AS A POLITICAL PARTY CHAPTER 5 Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front as a Political Party 1. Dissention within Sikkim Sangram Parishad It has already been discussed in the last part of the previous chapter about the feud between Chamling and Bhandari and the former's expulsion from the party on the ground of ideological differences. In this chapter, we will try to assess the reason behind the dissention and the emergence of a new state political outfit, Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) and its role in the state politics. Pawan Chamling, a son of a farmer from Yangang, south Sikkim had first started his political career as the President of his village Yangang Gram Panchayat Unit in 1982 and became an MLA of Damthang Constituency in 1985. He slowly climbed up the political ladder to become a Cabinet Minister in SSP Government in 1989 and was the Minister- in-charge for Industries, Printing and Information & Public Relations. (Commemorative issue:25 years of Statehood) On his days as the SSP minister for two and half years, there started growing a discord on principles and practices of politics between him and the then Chief Minister Nar Bahadur Bhandari. The differences between him and the leadership of the SSP were neither petty nor personal. There were substantial differences on issues of principle and ideology. (B B Gurung) 2012) (Bali) 2003) It was alleged that during Bhandari's rule, he ruled as a monarch without a crown. The fundamental rights of speech and expression granted by the constitution to its citizens became CHAPTER 5 : Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front as a Political Party imprisoned within the bounds of Mintokgang.

    P.S. Golay becomes CM of Sikkim News The Sikkim Krantikari Morcha (SKM) president Prem Singh Tamang, popularly known as PS Golay, took oath as the new Chief Minister of Sikkim on Monday. More in News ● In the recently concluded Sikkim Assembly elections, Sikkim Krantikari Morcha (SKM), had beaten the Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) and dethroned Pawan Kumar Chamling, the longest-serving Chief Minister of the country. PK chamling served for five consecutive terms since 1993. ● The SKM, founded in 2013, won a slender majority in the 32-member Sikkim legislative assembly (Lowest number of seats) by bagging 17 seats against the 15 won by the SDF. The party is also an ally of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) at the Centre and thus a part of the National Democratic Alliance. ● However, Tamang did not contest the election to focus on the party’s campaign.

  • Public Transport Accessibility Index for Thiruvananthapuram Urban Area

Professor, Dept.of Civil Engineering, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology, Kottayam, India) 3(Scientist C, National Transportation Planning and Research Centre, Thiruvananthapuram, India) Abstract: Transportation planning is an important part in the development of a region. An effective transport system and associated urban forms will improve the economic and social opportunities. Accessibility and mobility are the two main parameters which contribute to the effective transportation system. In this paper, the accessibility to the public transportation system is identified for the selected study area with the help of an indexing system. The sub-area in the region was thus graded based on their accessibility and the obtained values are found to resemble the real world. Keywords-Accessibility, indexing system, public transport system, transport planning I. Introduction Accessibility is concerned with the opportunity that an individual or type of person at a given location possesses to take part in a particular activity or set of activities. Accessibility takes on board the land use- transport connection and handles trip numbers and travel time as indicators. Measurement of access to social services for each household can help in adjust and better accommodate under-served regions. Important factors affecting accessibility are mobility, transport options, land use, and affordability.

  • The 2001 Assembly Elections in Tamil Nadu
    NEW ALIGNMENTS IN SOUTH INDIAN POLITICS The 2001 Assembly Elections in Tamil Nadu A. K. J. Wyatt There has been a strong regional pattern to the politics of modern Tamil Nadu, intimately related to the caste stratification of Tamil society. In contrast to other parts of India, upper-caste brahmins constitute a very small proportion (approximately 3%) of the population of Tamil Nadu. Roughly two-thirds of the 62 million population belong to the middle group of “backward” castes. Though this umbrella term is widely used, it is some- what misleading. Members of these castes do not enjoy high ritual status in the caste system, hence the term “backward,” but they occupy a wide variety of socioeconomic positions in Tamil society. For example, during the colo- nial period, some members of the backward castes were wealthy owners of land and businesses. These leading members of the backward castes resented brahmin dominance of politics and the professions under British colonial rule.1 In particular, in the early 20th century, many considered the Indian National Congress to be an elitist and socially exclusive organization. E. V. Ramaswami Naicker asserted himself as a spokesman against brahmin he- A. K. J.

During these visits, he was able to interview a selection of senior politicians from across the range of parties.
