Need to Declare and Develop Gingee Town in Villupuram District of Tamil Nadu As a Tourist Centre
> Title: Need to declare and develop Gingee town in Villupuram district of Tamil Nadu as a tourist centre. SHRI M. KRISHNASSWAMY (ARANI): I would like to draw the attention of the Government regarding the dire need to develop Gingee Town in Viluppuram District, which is 130 kms. from Chennai as a tourist Centre. The Gingee Town and its surrounding areas were ruled by one king from North-Desing Raja and he built a fort and palaces on the top of the mountain. He ruled the entire territory for certain period. This place is now being maintained by the Archeological Department and it is situated on the National Highway between Pondicherry and Krishnagiri. Near the National Highway, there are two mountains and on which two palaces have been built called − Rani palace and Raja Palace respectively. He had one faithful Lieutenant called Mohammed Khan. When the invasion of Arcot Nawab took place, Mohammed Khan sacrificed his life for his friend Desing Raja in the battle. This place is a symbol for secularism where Hindus, Islams, Jains and other communities are living peacefully. To declare this place as a tourism centre, a request has been made. The file is now pending with the State Government of Tamil Nadu. If this place is developed as a tourism centre, it will be like another Mahabalipuram and will attract the foreign tourists as it is very near to Chennai City. Therefore, I urge the Government of India, to study the place and declare Gingee town as a tourist centre so that it will attract more tourists and fetch revenue by providing cable car between the two mountains. -

Journal of Social Science Research Vol. 16 (2020) ISSN: 2321-1091 https://rajpub.com/index.php/jssr DOI: https://doi.org/10.24297/jssr.v16i.8765 Rural and Urban Disparities of Scheduled Caste Population: A Study with Special Reference to Viluppuram District, Tamil Nadu Dr. A. RANJITH KUMAR Research Associate, Dept. of Women's Studies, Alagappa University, India [email protected] Abstract The scheduled caste population is being deprived segment of the population, and it is necessary to see its progress in terms of demographic and socio-economic conditions to improve it with the help of existing and innovative programs available with the government and the voluntary organizations so that social and economic equality efforts could be made possible. The percentage of scheduled caste population and the other demographic characteristics such as sex ratio, literacy rate, and work participation rate of Tamil Nadu seem to be desirably high as compared to the national averages of the same. It is found that among 32 districts of Tamil Nadu, Thiruvalluvar district tops with 34 % of scheduled caste population, Tirunelveli tops in sex ratio in total and rural areas, Kanniyakumari tops in literacy rate in total, rural, urban among both males and females, Tiruppur tops in work participation rate both rural and urban areas and more or less among both males and females. Karur district has more male-female differences and Coimbatore district has more urban-rural differences in literacy rate. Chennai district accounts for more male-female differences and Kanniyakumari accounts for more urban-rural differences in the work participation rate. It may be suggested that the District, which has more proportion of scheduled caste population with low sex ratio both in total and child populations and high gender and residential differences in literacy rate and works participation rate may be more concentrated with suitable awareness and reformative social welfare measures. -

Varahanadhi Basin Introduction There Are 34 River Basins in Tamilnadu Including Parambikulamaliyar
Varahanadhi Basin Introduction There are 34 river basins in Tamilnadu including ParambikulamAliyar. For hydrological studies and water resources planning purposes they are grouped into 17 river basins. Varahanadhi river basin is one among them. The water demand for domestic, irrigation, industries, livestock, power generation and other uses is governed by socio- economic and agricultural factors present and future population size, income level, urbanization, markets, facilities, remunerative prices, cropping patterns, etc. An analysis of the water balance and a water utilisation& allocation plan for different competing water users form the core of a river basin plan. Water resource planning which is people oriented and resource based requires extensive data on Rainfall, Geology, Soil, Geomorphology, Hydrogeology, Hydrology, Climatology, Water quality, Environment, Socio-economic, Health, Agricultural, Population, Livestock, Industries, etc. Data availability on the above accounts is discussed below: Location and extent of Varahanadhi Basin The Varahanadhi basin is one of the 17 major river basins and is located in the Villupuram, Thiruvannamalai, Kancheepuram and Cuddalore districts of Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry state of union territory. The total area of the basin is 4498.5 sq.km. The Varahanadhi basin is surrounded by Bay of Bengal in the east. Palar basin in the north and Ponnaiyar basin in the south and west. The basin is situated between north latitude 11° 50’ 00” to 12° 28’ 00” and east longitude 79° 08’ 00” to 80° 10’ 00”. The index map of the Varahanadhi river basin is shown in Fig.1. Fig.1 Index map of VarahanadhiRiver Basin There are 24 blocks in this basin of which 7 blocks are covered in full and the remaining blocks are partly covered.
