Monitoring of groundwater level and chemical quality furnish valuable information on the ground water regime characteristics of the different hydrogeological units moreover, analysis of these valuable data collected from existing observation wells during May, August, November and January in each ground water year (June to May) indicate the pattern of ground water movement, changes in recharge-discharge relationship, behavior of water level and qualitative & quantitative changes of ground water regime in time and space. It also helps in identifying and delineating areas prone to decline of water table and piezometric surface due to large scale withdrawal of ground water for industrial, agricultural and urban water supply requirement. Further water logging prone areas can also be identified with historical water level data analysis. This year book contains the data and analysis of ground water regime monitoring for the year 2018-19. -
Physico Chemical Characterization of Ground Water of Anand District, Gujarat, India

Environmental Science and Engineering, Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra, Ranchi, Jharkhand, INDIA 2 Dept. Environmental Science and Technology, ISTAR, Vallabh Vidyanagar, Anand, Gujarat-388120, INDIA Available online at: www.isca.in Received 23 rd July 2012, revised 28 th July 2012, accepted 30 th July 2012 Abstract A report of physico-chemical study of the water samples taken from the Anand district of central Gujarat is presented here. Water samples from 42 sites have been subjected to physico- chemical analysis including parameters viz. pH, TDS, conductivity, hardness, dissolved oxygen, chloride, nitrate, phosphate, fluoride, iron and boron. Observations indicated pH, nitrate and phosphate values to be within permissible limit, TDS showed variable results while conductivity was high total hardness was slightly higher in some sampling locations, otherwise within the limits. Fe and boron was significantly high in all the locations. Fluoride was also absent in all the locations except Borsad. Chloride was considerably high only in Khambhat. The results were used to calculate the water quality index to draw conclusion about the suitability of the water for drinking and other domestic applications. Keywords: Ground water, physico-chemical analysis, water quality index. Introduction north east to the south west 11 . Along with these facts, as per the demographic trends, the population in the district is anticipated to Groundwater is the most important source of drinking water in India. -
Groundwater and Well-Water Quality in Alluvial Aquifer of Central Gujarat
Groundwater and well-water quality in Alluvial aquifer of Central Gujarat Sunderrajan Krishnan1, Sanjiv Kumar2, Doeke Kampman3 and Suresh Nagar4 1 International Water Management Institute(IWMI), Elecon campus, Anand, Gujarat - 388120 2 Xavier Institute of Development and Studies, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh (Intern in IWMI) 3 Trent University, Netherlands (Intern in IWMI) 4 Central Groundwater Board, Ahmedabad Division ABSTRACT Contamination of aquifers is an increasing problem in several parts of India. This, along with scarcity of groundwater resources due to increase in water demand and also by reduction in recharge of groundwater from changing landuse, combine to further compound the problem. In Gujarat state of Western India, a variety of groundwater pollution problems have emerged in the past two decades. High Salinity, Fluoride, Nitrate and pollution from industrial effluents have caused contamination of aquifers in different parts of the state. The Mahi right Bank command (MRBC) aquifer is the Southern tip of the Alluvial North Gujarat aquifer. The drinking water requirement of Anand and Kheda districts that overlay this aquifer is dependant mainly on groundwater. The rural areas are mostly dependant on the Village Panchayat managed water supply system and a combination of private and government handpumps apart from regional piped water supply in some areas. The general lack of awareness of water quality allows the spread of water-borne diseases, especially during the monsoon season. A combination of organizations –IWMI, FES and some medical organizations - came together to assess the extant of biological contamination of well-water after heavy floods in July 2006 and create awareness among the users to follow proper treatment procedures. -

ISSN 2454-8596 www.MyVedant.com An International Multidisciplinary Research E-Journal A Comparative Study Of Literacy Rate Among The Districts Of The Gujarat State Bharatkumar Naran Chhanga Assistant Professor Government arts and commerce college, Rapar, Kachchh Special Issue - International Online Conference V o l u m e – 5 , I s s u e – 5, May 2020 Page 1 ISSN 2454-8596 www.MyVedant.com An International Multidisciplinary Research E-Journal Abstract Literacy and education are important indicators in a society and play a central role in human development that impacts overall social-economic development milieu. Higher levels of literacy and education lead to better attainment of health and nutritional status, economic growth, population control, empowerment of the weaker sections and community as a whole. Also, higher literacy rates improve development indicators consistently. In this study trying to compare the literacy rate between different districts of Gujarat state. Introduction: “Educate one man, you educate one person, but educate a woman and you educate a Whole civilization” – Mahatma Gandhi Literacy level and educational attainment are vital indicators of development in a society. Literacy rate and educational development are considered to be key variables are acting demographic indicators like fertility, mortality (especially infant mortality) rate and migration. It greatly contributes in improving quality of life, particularly with regard to life expectancy, infant mortality, learning levels and nutritional levels of children. Higher level of literacy and educational development lead to greater awareness on the one hand and help people in acquiring new skills on the other. Literacy and education are important indicators in a society and play a central role in human development that impacts overall social-economic development milieu. -

PPAC's Snapshot of India's Oil & Gas Data
PPAC's Snapshot of India’s Oil & Gas data Abridged Ready Reckoner July, 2021 Petroleum Planning & Analysis Cell (Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas) As on 19.08.2021 Petroleum Planning & Analysis Cell (PPAC), an attached office of the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas (MoPNG), Government of India, collects and analyses data on the Oil and Gas sector. It disseminates many reports on the Oil & Gas sector to the various stakeholders. The data is obtained from the Public Sector companies, Government agencies as well as the Private companies. Given the ever-increasing demand for energy and transition of energy demand to renewables and Biofuels, Policy makers and Analysts need to be well informed about the updated trends in the Oil & Gas industry. The PPAC’s Snapshot of India’s Oil & Gas data (Abridged Ready Reckoner) provides a comprehensive compilation of the latest data/information in a single volume for the latest month and historical time series. The Snapshot of India’s Oil & Gas data is also published on PPAC’s website (www.ppac.gov.in) and is accessible on mobile app-PPACE. This publication is a concerted effort by all divisions of PPAC. The cooperation of the oil and gas industry is acknowledged for their timely inputs.
