The present paper has been analyzed the availability and efficient use Received in revised form of surface water in an emerging town named Kalady in Ernakulam district of Kerala. The area had been 29th August, 2019 th well known for paddy cultivation and now land use has changed and it is in the pressures of Accepted 27 September, 2019 development. There are three objectives for the study. The first one is to know the availability of Published online 30st October, 2019 surface water. The second is the utility of water for various purposes. The third one is the issues related Key words: to the utility of surface water in the area. The Survey of India Toposheet is used as the base map and to Water availability, Water utility, prepare drainage map, landuse map and other related maps in Arc GIS software. Water quality is tested Water quality, Landuse change, to know the issues related to the utility of surface water. The result shows that water sources are Streams, ponds, Canals, Iron content, available in the area but the utilization of water is in an unsustainable manner.

In Pius Malekandathil, Lotika Varadarajan & Amar Farooqi (eds.), India, the Portuguese, and maritime interactions, vol. II [Religion, language and cultural expression], 345-373. Delhi: Primus Books. ** --- The Indo-Portuguese Creoles of the Malabar Historical Cues and Questions Hugo C. Cardoso THIS ESSAY PROVIDES a state-of-the-art of current research on the Indo-Portuguese creoles of the Malabar. Having been given up as extinct, these creoles have been off the radar of linguists and historians alike for a long while. Yet, they are particularly important as potential descendants of the earliest forms of contact varieties of Portuguese that formed in Asia in the sixteenth century, and raise questions that interact with a social historiography of the Indo-Portuguese communities of the region. This essay will focus on four aspects of the study of these languages which operate on a linguistic-historical interface: (a) the social conditions required for their formation; (b) their course after the end of Portuguese colonial rule; (c) their putative foundational role in the context of Luso-Asian creoles; and (d) the social and linguistic stratification encapsulated in modern and late nineteenth-century records. This discussion is meant as a step towards the integration of linguistic evidence into the study of Indo-Portuguese social history, and of historical evidence into the study of Indo-Portuguese linguistics. Introduction Starting in the early sixteenth century, the colonial involvement of Portugal with Asia introduced the Portuguese language in the region.
