Former rulers have contributed significantly by constructing large number of impoundments for providing drinking water to the people in their capitals and elsewhere. This was particularly necessary in arid, semi arid and other regions with highly erratic rainfall. Upper lake of Bhopal, arguably the oldest among the large man-made lakes in central part of India, falls under this category. Constructing an earthen dam across the Kolans, a rain-fed tributary of Betwa River, this Lake was created in the early 11th century AD by the King Bhoj, the ruler of Dhar. Given the historical, archaeological and ecological significance of Bhoj wetland, the Government of Madhya Pradesh is organizing an international conference to show case the efforts made by various agencies to conserve Bhoj wetland alongwith other lakes/wetlands. We intend to and make efforts to invite not only scientists, but also policy makers, people‟s representatives, resource managers and catchment stakeholders to the conference. The interactions among this diverse audience will result in a wider discussion, with the goal of connect upstream perspective with downstream approach to attempt to solve the dynamic and vexed issues of lake and wetland catchment. Conference Objectives The objectives of this international conference is to bring together experts in the field of wetland and lake environments and habitats, with the underlying goal of establishing a basis for developing multidisciplinary solutions to multidisciplinary issues. The conference is conceived as an opportunity for expression of cross-sectoral concerns wherein experts from academia, government, international donor agencies, civil society, and public/ private enterprises will exchange their experiences on how to maximise wise use and sustainable management of wetland, lakes and their basins. Also learn from the varied and rich experiences of international community to evolve an effective strategy to maintain ecological integrity and ensure sustainable wise use of Bhoj wetland. The conference was organized with an objective to bring together experts associated with lake & wetland conservation and ILBM and understand the basis for developing multidisciplinary solutions to multidisciplinary issues related to lakes & wetlands. Conference gave an opportunity to learn from the varied and rich experiences of international community as to how to evolve an effective strategy to maintain ecological integrity and ensure wise use of lakes and wetlands. The conference focussed on the following six themes: 1. Ecology and Science of Lakes & Wetlands 2. Lakes & Wetlands – Conservation & Management 3. Climate Change and Lakes & Wetlands 4. Lakes & Wetlands of Madhya Pradesh 5. Wetlands and Agriculture: Opportunities & Limitations 6.

Total of 78 zooplankton species were recorded from the ponds waters during two years of study period which consisted of Rotifera 29 species (37%), Cladocera &Protozoa 16 species each (20% each), Copepoda 13 species (17%) and Ostracoda 4 species (5%). Among all the zooplankton classes, species belongs to the class Rotifera were recorded their dominance during both the years of study. The dominance of Rotifers population in terms of quality has been recorded. Seasonal variation of zooplankton population recorded maximum species diversity of class Rotifera during summer (1st year) and winter season (2nd year). On the other hand, minimum population density was contributed by class Copepoda in all the season. Presence of various pollution indicator zooplankton species indicates and evidences the high anthropogenic pressure and direct mixing sewage from the nearby catchment in the pond waters which has accelerated the eutrophication in the Sarangpani pond.

Or Doing things the right way? INTRODUCTION Environmental impact assessment (EIA), a systematic process to identify, predict and evaluate the environmental effects of proposed actions and projects is applied prior to major decisions and commitments being made. Under this study the social, cultural and health effects form an integral part in order to prevent, mitigate and offset the significant adverse effects of proposed undertakings. The EIS study provides information for decision-making on the environmental consequences of proposed actions; and promotes environmentally sound and sustainable development through the identification of appropriate enhancement and mitigation measures. With the infringement of the site the impacts become more complex and larger in scale thus, in order to reduce the burden of environmental impacts it becomes necessary to undertake EIA study for maintaining the sustainability of the project even after the developmental processes. The study minimizes the adverse effects that large scale development schemes have on natural resources and ecosystems. Increasingly, the scope of EIA includes consideration of all potentially significant effects -- direct, indirect and cumulative. Thus, EIA processes analyze a range of impact types within a single framework as it an efficient method for preserving natural resources and protecting the environment. It is thus anticipatory, participatory, and systematic in nature and relies on multidisciplinary input (Glasson et al ., 1994).

    GSJ: Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2019 ISSN 2320-9186 194 Habitat Characterization of Littoral zone of Upper Lake, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh Sweta Priyam Department of Environmental Science, Barkatullah University, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. Abstract Water management is a critical issue for the survival of all organisms residing on earth. In this study, Bhopal, also famous as city of lakes, has been taken as it has number of lakes fulfilling daily needs of the city. Upper lake and lower lake, together forms Bhoj wetland and is a Ramser site and shahpura lake are three important lakes of the city serving multipurpose need of the city of drinking, agriculture etc. Biotic and abiotic interaction in aquatic and terrestrial area determines its abundance and health of the area. If any one factors gets disturbed then the whole cycle of system gets disturbed and risk the rate of survival. Therefore, it is important for each factor to be in control for sustainable development. Likewise, aquatic organisms serves important role in deciding the health of the lakes. Presence and absence of certain organisms can be indictor of pollution or pollution free environment. In the littoral zone of the lakes, habitat of the samples was surveyed by observing the flora of the area and categorizing in submerged, floating and emerged. Water parameters like temperature, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand, alkalinity, total dissolved solids, total hardness and electrical conductivity were determined and macro benthic invertebrates were identified in the area. To determine the relation, correlation coefficient was determined between the two factors, macro benthic invertebrates and 11 parameters of water.
