Department of Zoology, Osmania University, Hyderabad, Telangana, India. ABSTRACT Zooplanktons are cosmopolitan in nature and they are found to inhabit all freshwater tropical wetlands. The present investigation deals with the study of monthly changes of diversity and density of Zooplankton in three lakes named Saroornagar Lake, Noor Mohammed Kunta (Katedhan Lake) and Mir Alam tank of Hyderabad City. The work was carried out for a period of two years from June 2014 to May 2016. The samples were analyzed on the same day for different physico-chemical factors like Water -2 - - ++ ++ -2 -3 3- temp, pH, CO3 , HCO3 , Cl , O.M, T.H, Ca , Mg , T.S, TDS, SO4 , PO4 , NO , SiO2, DO, BOD following the standard methods (APHA, 1995). The population status of Zooplankton categorized into four major groups, viz, Rotifera > Cladocerans > Cyclopoid-Copepods> Ostracods. Rotifera were the dominant group of Zooplankton recorded with respect to diversity and population density status in all the three lakes. KEYWORDS Zooplankton, diversity, physicochemical, Saroornagar Lake, Noor Mohammed Kunta (Katedhan Lake),Mir Alam Tank, Hyderabad City INTRODUCTION Freshwater ecosystem is under expanding dangers and weights all through the world (Dudgeon et al., 2005; Pattnaik, 2007). This has been overstrained and harmed in different ways like mechanical squanders, sewage, horticultural overflow with chemical squanders and abundance supplements. Releases of poisons debase the nature of water, just as influencing the soundness of sea-going ecosystems. Freshwater of the world is on the whole encountering quickening rates of subjective and quantitative corruption (Wetzel, 1992). As per Dudgeon et al. (2005) dangers to worldwide freshwater biodiversity under five classifications JETIR1906616 Journal of Emerging Technologies and Innovative Research (JETIR) www.jetir.org 219 © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) like over misuse, water pollution, stream adjustment, annihilation and debasement of living space and intrusion of extraordinary species. These consolidated and associating impacts have brought about the populace decay and range decrease of freshwater biodiversity around the world. Freshwater condition has much faunal diversity, among them zooplankton plays a huge job in interlinking sustenance web and vitality move. All things considered, numerous examinations prescribe that the network size of chosen real zooplankton as biological markers for evaluating the trophic status and water quality (Ferdous and Muktadir, 2009; Haberman and Haldna, 2014). Thus, eutrophication is one of the most pervasive environmental issues in charge of water quality corruption around the world. There are numerous examinations showing the impact of eutrophication on changes in the bounty and structure of zooplankton (Gliwicz, 1969; Patalas, 1972; Maier, 1998). The present examination means to survey the trophic status of a water system tank through zooplankton species piece, diversity alongside couple of physicochemical components. Study area Hyderabad is the capital of southern India's Telangana state. A noteworthy community for the innovation business, its home to numerous upscale restaurents and shops. Its memorable destinations incorporate Golconda Fort, a previous precious stone exchanging focus that was before the Qutb Shahi dynastic capital. Important facts Area: 650 km² Elevation: 505 m Weather: 36°C, Wind W at 5 km/h, 78% Humidity Population: 2.637 million (3001) (UNdata). Description of Stations selected for study in Hyderabad Station I: Saroornagar Lake: Saroornagar Lake is a lake in Hyderabad, India. From the year of its creation in 1626, the lake remained largely clean until 1956 when Hyderabad expanded. Spread over 99 acres (40 ha), the lake was restored by the Hyderabad Urban Development Authority in 2003–04 at a cost of ₹200 million (US$2.9 million). After the restoration of the lake, migratory birds returned to the lake in big numbers a few years later. JETIR1906616 Journal of Emerging Technologies and Innovative Research (JETIR) www.jetir.org 220 © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Station II: Lake Noor Mohammed Kunta (Katedhan Lake): Lake Noor Mohammed Kunta (Lake NMK) is a small surface water body located in Kattedan Industrial Estate (KIE) of Rajendranagar Municipality in Shivrampally Village of Rangareddy district in the southern suburbs of Hyderabad City has water spread of 27 acres and an independent catchment area of 175 hectares. It flows down to Shivarampally lake then to Voora cheruvu and ultimately to Mir Alam tank. Station III: Mir Alam Tank: Mir Alam Tank is a reservoir in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. It is located to the south of Musi river. It was the primary source of drinking water to Hyderabad before Osman Sagar and Himayat Sagar were built. It is connected to National Highway7 near Palm Valley (Tadbun). The tank is named after Mir Alam Bahadur, then Prime Minister of Hyderabad State (1804 - 1808), during the reign of Asaf Jah III, the third Nizam of Hyderabad state. Mir Alam laid the foundation for the tank on 20 July 1804 and it was completed in about two years on 8 June 1806. Nehru Zoological Park lies adjacent to the tank and Telangana Tourism operates boats on the lake, for which one has to enter through the zoo. Materials and Methods The water samples from the surface were collected from the three sampling stations every month in polythene cans for a period of 2 years from June 2014 to May 2016. The samples were analyzed on the same -2 - - ++ ++ day for different physico-chemical factors like Water temp, pH, CO3 , HCO3 , Cl , O.M, T.H, Ca , Mg , -2 -3 3- T.S, TDS, SO4 , PO4 , NO , SiO2, DO, BOD following the standard methods (APHA, 1995). Collection of water samples for estimation at different Zooplankton groups: For the analysis Zooplankton groups like Rotifers, Cladocerans, Copepods (Calanoids, Cyclopoids and Harpacticoids) and Ostracods, samples were collected from the lakes. The zooplankton net was made by the bolting nylon silk (mesh size 50nm) was used for collection of zooplankton. This net was conical shape and reducing cone with the bottle at its end. For quantitative analysis collection of zooplankton, the net is towed horizontally and obliquely in surface water of the study area. For quantitative analysis, ten bucket full of water (one bucket = 10 liters) samples were collected from each sampling sites and filtered out through the net. After transferring the sample in air tight plastic bottles, it was kept carefully with labeling and preserved immediately using 4% formaldehyde. After returning to the laboratory 1 ml from this concentrated zooplankton sample from each sampling sites, were observed under the microscope (40X) (Olympus Cx21).

  • Hyderabad's Musi River
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Hyderabad’s Musi River: Why Do Technocratic Solutions Fail in Safeguarding Urban Waterbodies? VIKAS SEHRA Vikas Sehra ([email protected]) is with the Centre for the Study of Regional Development, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. Vol. 55, Issue No. 10, 07 Mar, 2020 In complete contrast to its past glory, the Musi river which traverses through Hyderabad city, is degraded by indiscriminate disposal of waste and massive encroachments. The Telangana government had announced plans in 2017 to revitalise the river through a large- scale riverfront development project. By revisiting similar initiatives taken up earlier to resuscitate the Musi, the article argues that these techno-managerial solutions completely disregard notions of commons, only to normalise their exploitation. On 28 September 1908, water levels in Musi river rose to 16 feet and completely flooded Hyderabad, leaving behind a trail of death and destruction. Encroached and concretised, the river has shrunk into a drain ever since. Today, it crawls through the city carrying a deadly mix of drain water interspersed with patches of cattle grass, solid wastes, and poisonous fumes. To revitalise the river, the Telangana government announced the Musi Riverfront Development Project in 2017. The degrading condition of such ecological commons (such as waterbodies, air, wetlands, etc) in cities brings focus back to Hardin’s "The Tragedy of the Commons" (1968). According to Hardin, in the absence of well-defined ownership, individuals maximise their self- interests, which eventually results in the overexploitation of commons. But Hardin’s conceptualisation was eventually criticised, and many scholars over time pointed out its ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 limitations.

  • Current Scenario on Urban Solid Waste with Respect to Hyderabad City
    International Journal of Research Studies in Science, Engineering and Technology Volume 3, Issue 12, December 2016, PP 10-13 ISSN 2349-4751 (Print) & ISSN 2349-476X (Online) Current Scenario on Urban Solid Waste with Respect to Hyderabad City Srinivas Jampala1, Ashok Gellu2, Dr.D.Seshi Kala3 Department of Environmental Science, Osmania University, Hyderabad Abstract: Municipal solid waste management is one of the major environmental problems of world. Improper management of municipal solid waste causes hazards to pubic and environment. Various studies reveal that about 90% of MSW is due to improper management of open dumps and landfills, creating problems to public health and the environment. In Hyderabad more amount of solid waste is generating mostly due to the rapid population and industrialization and mainly due to unawareness of solid waste among the public and masses. In the present day, an attempt has been made to provide a comprehensive review of the characteristics, generation, collection and transportation, disposal and treatment technologies of MSW practiced in Hyderabad. The day pertaining to has been carried out to evaluate the current status and identify the major problems. Various adopted treatment technologies for MSW are critically reviewed, along with their advantages and limitations. Keywords: Waste, Municipal solid waste, Urban, Environment, 1. INTRODUCTION Solid waste is a broad term, which encompasses all kinds of waste such as Municipal Solid Waste, Industrial Waste, Hazardous Waste, Bio-Medical Waste and Electronic waste depending on their source and composition. Solid wastes are those organic and inorganic waste materials produced by various activities of the society. (Wolsink 2010) Solid waste management is becoming a major public health and environmental concern in urban areas of many developing countries.
