Democracy is not only related to Government and the administration, it has also become a way of life providing strong foundation for the people’s prosperity. Democracy is a form of Government which aims at the socio economic growth of the society as a whole. The Information and Public Relations Department is an important department in a democratic set up. This department plays a vital role in disseminating information on various government schemes through print and visual media to create awareness among the public. As a result the benefits of all schemes fully reach all sections of the people. This department strives hard to create the bridge of goodwill between the people and the Government, by interacting with the public and also propagating the schemes and programmes of the Government. This department also organises functions to honour freedom fighters, Tamil scholars and leaders who had served for the welfare of society. Under the able leadership and guidance of Hon’ble Chief Minister, the Department of Information and Public Relations has been strengthened with added infrastructural and modern technological facilities. CHAPTER-1 PRESS RELEASE SECTION The Press Release Section in the Secretariat plays a vital role in sustaining media relationship by disseminating information about the Government Welfare Schemes and development activities.

  • Marble-Like Chûnnam in the 18Th- and 19Th-Century Madras Presidency
    ARTICLES IJHS | VOL 55.1 | MARCH 2020 Marble-like chûnnam in the 18th- and 19th-century Madras Presidency Anantanarayanan Raman∗ Charles Sturt University, PO Box 883, Orange, NSW 2800, Australia. (Received 25 September 2019; revised 07 November 2019) Abstract Lime (calcined limestone), referred as çûnam and çûṇṇam (‘chûnnam’) was used in the Indian subconti- nent for ages. In the Tamizh country, lime was referred as çûṇṇāmpu. The nature and quality chûnnam used in the Madras presidency are formally recorded in various published reports by the British either living in or visiting Madras from the 18th century. All of them consistently remark that the quality of chûnnam used in building human residences and other buildings was of superior quality than that used for the same purpose elsewhere in India. The limestone for making chûnnam was extracted from (i) inland quarries and (ii) beached seashells. The latter was deemed of superior quality. In the Tamizh country in particular, a few other biological materials were added to lime mortar to achieve quicker and better hardening. In the Madras presidency, builders and bricklayers, used to add jaggery solution, egg albumin, clarified butter, and freshly curdled yoghurt, and talc schist (balapong) to the lime mortar.Many of the contemporary construction engineers and architects are presently loudly talking on the validity and usefulness of using lime mortar, embellished with plant fibres and plant extracts, supplemented by traditional practice of grinding. Key words: Çûṇṇāmbu, Jaggery, John Smith, Kaḍukkāi, Limestone Mortar, Magnesite, Portland Cement, Seashells, Vegetable Material. 1 Introduction mortar instead of a mixer, for better compres- sive strength and long-lasting life.

SHEEBA@ PARVATHI, RESEARCH SCHOLAR, DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, MANONMANIAM SUNDARANAR UNIVERSITY, TIRUNELVELI. Abstract: An attempt has been made to bring out the significance of Ettayapuram is an interesting topic which focuses on history of Zamins and their contribution to Art and letters and they ruled independently. India was under the clutch of the British rule for about two centuries. It has been pointed out by great historians, the mutual disunity that prevailed among the native rulers in India, was the main reason for the slavery of the Indian soil. However a galaxy of thinkers, writers, poets, philosophers and others who had national liberation only as their heart throbs, joined together and vowed to overthrow the British rule from India. The services of a few native rulers and chieftains who raised the banner of liberation, opposing the British rule in India is noteworthy. Key Words: Cultural contribution of Zamins, Pitha Maharaja, Contribution to culture and Art, and Men of Letters, Patrons of men of letters. 1. Introduction: An attempt has been made to bring out the significance of Ettayapuram is an interesting topic which focuses on history of Zamins and their contribution to Art and letters and they ruled independently. India was under the clutch of the British rule for about two centuries.
