Uran, a fishing village in Raigad district of Maharashtra, supports a good fishery of Scylla serrata commonly known as giant mud crab, found in the coastal estuarine and mangrove areas. During a survey conducted in the intertidal zone on 21st August 2017, a live juvenile of S. serrata was observed with a bifurcated claw. The crab was a male with 56 mm carapace width. Its right cheliped showed two claws articulating separately from the carpus and second claw emerged from the posterior side of the carpus. Merus of the right cheliped also showed strong rows of spines on both sides unlike Abnormal mud crab in a normal crab.

  • The Mission of St. Thomas in India
    THE MISSION OF ST. THOMAS IN INDIA Dr. J. ALBARIS Associate Professor of History P.G. & Research Department of History Alagappa Govt. Arts College Karaikudi – 630 003 Tamil Nadu. Mob. No: +91-9443619556 The history of Christianity in India is as old as the history of the universal church. The Syrain Catholics and Syro-Malankara Catholics support this view. Though primary sources are scanty to defend this view, there are very meager secondary sources to support this, which are not absolutely and definitely reliable. Traditions, relics and monuments associated with the Apostle, St. Thomas1 are available. Of course, Christianity traces its origin from St. Thomas one of the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ. As per the western tradition it is believed that St. Thomas following the well established trade routes reached India. But according to Indian tradition, he reached the ancient Port of Muziri in Crangarore and preached the Christian faith.2 This tradition was widely held from early times and it has been accepted as true by many writers of repute. There is in the tradition itself, nothing improbable. At that stage, there was commerce between India and Europe by caravans overlord, by the Persian Gulf and by the Red sea, so that the apostle could journey to India.3 It is said that he worked among the fishermen of the erstwhile Travancore State jurisdiction and converted them to Christianity.4 As a result of his propagation and missionary work, he converted many to Christianity. There were converts from the Brahmias and other high castes. To an extent, he succeeded to secure conversions from among the princely sections of the society.
