Basic Needs of 39 Coastal Fishing Communities in Kanniyakumari District, Tamil Nadu, India Bay of Bengal Programme Bobpimm/1
BASIC NEEDS OF 39 COASTAL FISHING COMMUNITIES IN KANNIYAKUMARI DISTRICT, TAMIL NADU, INDIA BAY OF BENGAL PROGRAMME BOBPIMM/1 Mimeo Series BASIC NEEDS OF 39 COASTAL FISHING COMMUNITIES IN KANNIYAKUMARI DISTRICT, TAMIL NADU, INDIA A SURVEY TO INVESTIGATE AND PRIORITISE PROBLEMS REGARDING SERVICES AND INFRASTRUCTURE by ReneJ.C.Verduijn Associate Professional Officer (Fishery Resource Economist) Bay ofBengalProgramme BAY OF BENGAL PROGRAMME, Chennai, India 2000 ii Preface This document describes a survey of the basic needs of 39 coastal fishing communities of Kanniyakumari district, Tamil Nadu, India, as perceived by the communities. The survey investigated and prioritized the communities’ needs for basic services such as water,education and health care. The survey was a co-operative effort ofthe Tamil Nadu Department ofFisheries, the Coastal Peace and DevelopmentCommittee of the Kottar Diocese, and the Bay ofBengal Programme (FAO/UN). The survey was carried out during the first half of 1998 by two local enumerators in each village selected by the Coastal Peace and Development Committee. All the enumerators were together imparted training for a day by the BOBP on the conduct of interviews, and given questionnaires. The enumerators conducted group interviews with fisherfolk of the 39 communities, both men and women, about the status of local services. This document details the findings of the survey and the comments by the respondents. It is hoped that these are founduseful by various governmentagencies and the church in improving the status of basic services and infrastructure in coastal areas of Kanniyakumari district. The survey, and this report of the survey, are part of the BOBP’s effort in co-operation with the TamilNadu Department of Fisheries to improve fisheries management in Kanniyakumari district. -

India. *Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The present work was focused on the spatial and temporal variations of the coastal water quality from six shores along southwest coastline in Arabian sea in Kanyakumari District,Tamilnadu, India. The surface temperature was found varied from 21.2°C to 28.1°C, pH was varied from 7.66 to 8.9, conductivity, TDS, DO, CO 2, Alkalinity and nitrate remains almost same in all places in a particular season. Turbidity was ranged between 2 NTU to 11 NTU and maximum in Kanyakumari in all seasons. The observed DO was above 5 mg/l. Minimum BOD was observed in the present study. Carbon dioxide was found varied from 8 ppm to 25 ppm. Total alkalinity values lie within the maximum permissible limit. Both gross alpha and gross beta count were maximum in Muttom coastal water. Nutrient nitrate varied from 2 g/l to 4 g/l. Phosphate was much higher in Muttom in summer season. Sulphate was higher in Kanyakumari and Thengapattanam coast which indicates anthropogenically affected water quality. Keywords : Coastal water; Alkalinity; Turbidity; Spatial and temporal variation.

Prominent Muslim Jamaaths in Kanyakumari District
International Journal of Research ISSN NO:2236-6124 Prominent Muslim Jamaaths in Kanyakumari District A. SHAHILA BANU Ph.D. Research Scholar (Reg. No.11842) Department of History, Women’s Christian College, Nagercoil – 629 001. Affiliated to Manonmaniam Sundaranar University, Abishekapatti, Tirunelveli – 627 012, Tamil Nadu, India. Abstract Islam in Kanyakumari District has been enriched by Fakirs and saintly savants of Islam. Due to their selfless service, Islam has thrived in this part of the country. The spread and growth of Islam is conspicuous by the presence of 52 Jamaaths in this district. These Jamaaths speak of their antiquity and they contain a lot of information regarding their life style and culture. In Kanyakumari District there are 52 Jamaaths. Among them six Muslim Jamaaths are considered very large and prominent. They are, Thengapattanam Muslim Jamaath, Colachel Muslim Jamaath, Thiruvithancode Muslim Jamaath, Thuckalay Muslim Jamaath, Elankadai Muslim Jamaath at Kottar, Malik Dinar faithulmal Muslim Jamaath, Kottar, Thittuvilai Muslim Jamaath. Some other Jamaaths are steadily growing in strength, stature and popularity. Keywords: Muslim Jamaath, Kanyakumari District, Life style, culture Introduction Jamaath means a Sangam, Federation or group based on some Islamic Principles. So it is said that a life without Jamaath is meaningless. If a Muslim keeps himself away from the Jamaath it means that he excommunicates himself from Islam. The Muslims form a Jamaath where they live and solve the problems that may arise out of marriage, divorce and other disputes. The solution to the problems would be based on the tenets of Holy Quran and the Hathees. Kanyakumari District Muslim Jamaath Federation was founded in 1982 at Thiruvithancode. -

Isolation, Screening and Growth Optimization of Antagonistic Bacillus Subtilis MS21 from Thengapattanam Estuary Against Plant Fungal Pathogens

Anjhana1* and S.L.Sasikala2 *1Asst. Professor, Dept. of Zoology, Sree Ayyappa College for Women, Chunkankadai. E-mail: [email protected] 2Professor and the Head, Center for Marine Science & Technology Manonmaniam Sundaranar University Marina Campus, Rajakkamangalam – 629502 Kanyakumari District, Tamil Nadu. Abstract In the present work marine sediment samples were collected from Thengapattanam estuary on the south west coast of India for the isolation and screening of bacteria for biocidal potency. The density of the bacterial load in the sediment samples was ranged from 5.43x104 to 2.8x106 CFU/g. Screening of bacterial isolates for antagonistic activity revealed that the isolate MS21 had the highest zone of clearance among against all the 10 plant fungal pathogens tested. Among 10 fungal pathogens, the highest antagonistic activity was observed against Gleosporium gleosporioide (36mm) and the lowest against Colletotrichum lamella (11mm). The potential isolate was identified as Bacillus subtilis using biochemical methods and it was designated as Bacillus subtilis MS21. Effect of various physicochemical parameters on growth of B. subtilis MS21 showed that 36 hrs of incubation period, 150 rpm agitation, pH- 8.0, temperature-35oC, salinity-1.0%, 2% sucrose as carbon source and 1% beef extract as nitrogen source were found to be the ideal conditions for maximum growth.
