  • Role of Co-Operative Societies in Black Clam Fishery and Trade in Vembanad Lake
    6 Marine Fisheries Information Service T&E Ser., No. 207, 2011 Role of co-operative societies in black clam fishery and trade in Vembanad Lake N. Suja and K. S. Mohamed Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Kochi Lime shells and live clams are distributed in large quantities in the backwaters and estuaries of Kerala. Vembanad, the largest lake of Kerala, also holds a vast resource of lime shells and live clam, comprising several species. The major species that account for the clam fishery of Vembanad Lake is the black clam Villorita cyprinoides. The lime shells that contribute to the fishery are broadly classified as the ‘white shells’ and the ‘black shells’. The so-called ‘white shells’ are sub-soil deposits of fossilized shells and are known to extend upto 7 feet below the lake bottom. The black shells are obtained from the living population of V. cyprinoides, which contribute more than 90% of the clams from this lake. The lime shell is mainly used for the manufacture of cement, calcium carbide and sand lime bricks. They are also used for lime burning, for construction, in paddy field / fish farms for neutralizing acid soil and as slaked lime. This is used as a raw material for the manufacture of distemper, glass, rayon, paper and sugar. Shell Control Act The Government of India has listed lime shell as a minor mineral under the Mineral Concession Fig. 1. Location of black clam lime shell industrial co-operative Rules, 1949, Section 5 of the Mines and Minerals. societies The acquisition, sale, supply and distribution of lime shell in the State are at present controlled by Black clam lime shell industrial co-operative the Kerala Lime Shells Control Act, 1958.

CHAPTER SIX POWER POLITICS IN KOLATHUNADU (1663-1697) In the month of October 1690, three Dutch soldiers deserted from the Dutch fortress in Cannanore and were caught by the Nayars of the Kolathiri prince, Keppoe Unnithamburan, in Maday—a place some twenty kilometres to the north of Cannanore.1 Although they tried to hide their real identity by claiming first that they were English and later Portuguese, the Nayars who were sent by the Company to track them successfully exposed their pretensions. Realizing the graveness of the situation, the soldiers desperately pleaded with the Prince not to extradite them to the Company for fear of capital punishment. Moved by their pathetic imploring, the Prince took them under his protection and ordered the Company Nayars to turn back, stating that he would take them to Cannanore personally, which, in fact, did not happen. The Company servants complained about this incident to the Ali Raja. The latter assured them he would settle the issue by promising to advise and caution the inexperienced young prince regarding this issue.

  • Stage Techniques and Theatre Effects As Adopted in Western Theatreand Modern Malayalam Theatre: a Brief Analysis
    STAGE TECHNIQUES AND THEATRE EFFECTS AS ADOPTED IN WESTERN THEATREAND MODERN MALAYALAM THEATRE: A BRIEF ANALYSIS DR. S. CHELLIAH, M.A, Ph. D; Professor, Head and Chairperson, School of English & Foreign languages & School of Indian Languages, Department of English & Comparative Literature Madurai Kamaraj University Madurai-21(TN)-INDIA This paper attempts to examine the stage techniques and theatre effects as adopted both in Western Theatre and modern Malayalam Theatre tracing the growth of the modern theatre of the West beginning with the Norveigian playwright Henrik Ibsen and the birth of movements like absurdism, symbolism, expressionism, impression and existentialism and theatre formations like Theatre of Complicate, theatre debre, Theatre of Cruelty, Theatre of Panic, Theatre of Silence, Theatre of Absurd and also Epic Theatre with a mention of the plays of Shakespeare and Kalidasa. It neatly shows how the stage techniques mark both the Western modern Malayalam plays and these characteristic features distinguish them both from the conventional plays. Key Words: western, modern, symbolism, absurdism, stage techniques, realm of drama, conventional plays, lighting, narrator, director and chorus. INTRODUCTION In an age of high intellectualism dominated by the methods of scientific reasoning and logic, it is out and true that men has explored the principles of nature and has harnessed the unmanageable power hidden in her. In such an age, however, genuine creative art is bound to decline and die. For all creative arts, especially literature works in a plane beyond the DR. S. CHELLIAH 1P a g e intellect and reasoning.

  • Mehendale Book-10418
    Tipu as He Really Was Gajanan Bhaskar Mehendale Tipu as He Really Was Copyright © Gajanan Bhaskar Mehendale First Edition : April, 2018 Type Setting and Layout : Mrs. Rohini R. Ambudkar III Preface Tipu is an object of reverence in Pakistan; naturally so, as he lived and died for Islam. A Street in Islamabad (Rawalpindi) is named after him. A missile developed by Pakistan bears his name. Even in India there is no lack of his admirers. Recently the Government of Karnataka decided to celebrate his birth anniversary, a decision which generated considerable opposition. While the official line was that Tipu was a freedom fighter, a liberal, tolerant and enlightened ruler, its opponents accused that he was a bigot, a mass murderer, a rapist. This book is written to show him as he really was. To state it briefly: If Tipu would have been allowed to have his way, most probably, there would have been, besides an East and a West Pakistan, a South Pakistan as well. At the least there would have been a refractory state like the Nizam's. His suppression in 1792, and ultimate destruction in 1799, had therefore a profound impact on the history of India. There is a class of historians who, for a long time, are portraying Tipu as a benevolent ruler. To counter them I can do no better than to follow Dr. R. C. Majumdar: “This … tendency”, he writes, “to make history the vehicle of certain definite political, social and economic ideas, which reign supreme in each country for the time being, is like a cloud, at present no bigger than a man's hand, but which may soon grow in volume, and overcast the sky, covering the light of the world by an impenetrable gloom.

  • Chapter I Tsunami
    Executive summary In the morning hours of 26 December, 2004, huge seismic sea waves triggered by massive undersea earthquake in the Indian Ocean caused the death of many thousands of people, leaving tens of thousands homeless in India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Maldives. Fishermen, tourists and people living on the coast were unprepared for the waves that rose upto 6 meters high throughout the Indian Ocean, Andaman Sea and Arabian Sea. The earthquake, had its epicenter 257 km south southwest of Banda Aceh in Sumatra, Indonesia. This was the most powerful earthquake experienced in the region during the last 40 years. 176 persons were killed in Kerala as tsunami waves rising over the Arabian Sea invaded the land, wreaking havoc and destruction in the coastal fishing hamlets in the southern districts of the state. This report presents the impact of tsunami on natural eco systems. The marine environment in the southwest coast between Thottapally and Muttam has been successfully affected as a result of the impact of Tsunami , as reflected by the following findings : The concentration of nutrients has been reduced at all transects just after tsunami. However, values gradually picked up in the period from January to May 2005. Primary productivity had been drastically reduced in the wake of tsunami, especially near Vizhinjam and Kolachel. This also has improved considerably evident from the samples collected in May 2005. There was a lowering of plankton species diversity just after tsunami period, in January 2005. The fish catch has been reduced subsequent to tsunami. This has shown considerable improvement now, as reported by the fishermen from that area.
