  • EFFECT of NALLAHS on GROUNDWATER in INDORE CITY Niharika Shivhare*, Shifa Khan, Naman Patel, Akshay Joshi, Babita Dutt * Christian Eminent College, Indore S
    ISSN: 2277-9655 [Shivhare* et al.,6(5): May, 2017] Impact Factor: 4.116 IC™ Value: 3.00 CODEN: IJESS7 IJESRT INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING SCIENCES & RESEARCH TECHNOLOGY EFFECT OF NALLAHS ON GROUNDWATER IN INDORE CITY Niharika Shivhare*, Shifa Khan, Naman Patel, Akshay Joshi, Babita Dutt * Christian Eminent College, Indore S. N. College, Khandwa Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel College, Mandleshwar DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.573531 ABSTRACT It is generally assumed that ground water is safe (free from pathogens) and does not contain harmful constituents. But this belief is not true under all circumstances. The unscientific disposal of human and animal wastes is found to be the main anthropogenic activity that has lead to the contamination of ground water with micro-organisms, nitrates, etc. To check the level of contamination in Indore city by the seepage of the existing nallahs, a monitoring of ground water quality was carried out for one month January 2017 to February 2017 from eighteen groundwater sources in Indore city. Analysis was carried out for assessment of 21 parameters including mineral, demand, nutrient, bacteriological and metal analysis. The analysis data reveals that the quality of groundwater in Indore city has deteriorated to a large extent making it unfit for drinking and irrigation purpose. The chemical composition of groundwater from basaltic aquifer has severely altered due to the percolation of industrial effluents in the past decades and sewage from existing nallahs into the groundwater. KEYWORDS:Physico - chemical parameters, ground water quality, nallahs, total coliforms etc. INTRODUCTION Water pollution is a major problem in the global context [1, 2].

  • Understanding Climate Change in Indore District: an Empirical Investigation of Trends and Shifts
    AJECO Volume 2 Issue 1 2017 Amity Journal of Economics 2(1), (64-78) ©2017 ADMAA Understanding Climate Change in Indore District: An Empirical Investigation of Trends and Shifts Ganesh Kawadia & Era Tiwari Devi Ahilya University, Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India Abstract The study tries to analyse the phenomenon of climate-change with respect to Indore district.It attempts to empirically investigate whether the district has actually experiencedclimate change over the time period of a century (1901-2002) A.D. Eight climate variables namely temperature, precipitation, vapour-pressure, wet day frequency, diurnal temperature range, cloud-cover, reference crop evapotranspiration and potential evapotranspiration have been identified in the paper to study climate change. Linear and Quadratic regression models have been used to study the variation of chosen climate indicators with respect to passage of time. Seven year moving average method has been used to smoothen the trend of time-series fluctuations. The results have also been supported with graphical analysis. Use of dummy variable has been made to study whether there is a change in the trend of variation of various climate indicators with reference to a point in time; the year 1940. The findings clearly reveal a significant change in Indore district in terms of chosen indicators over the time-period of a century. As Indore is the representative district of the Chambal basin, the climatic variability and the study of its resultant effects on biodiversity, health, crop-distribution and associated yield is bound to have significant policy implications for the whole region. Study thus serves as a base for understanding the climate profile of the region as a whole.

  • ABO Blood Groups and Sickle-Cell Trait Investigations in Madhya Pradesh Indore District (Central India)
    Anthropological Survey of India, Govt, of India, Indian Museum, Calcutta ABO Blood Groups and Sickle-cell Trait Investigations in Madhya Pradesh Indore District (Central India) Narendra Kumar From May to July 1963, the Author conducted field investigations on ABO blood groups and sickle-cell trait distributions in Indore district of Madhya Pradesh. Five hundred individuals belonging to four castes, the Kulmi, the Khati, the Mali and the Balai or Balahis, and a tribe, the Bhil, were tested. Ninety-five blood samples col­ lected from a number of other castes were also tested. The Kulmi or Kulambi caste is distributed throughout Central India. This caste is known as the Patidar in Gujerat and Kunbi in Maharashtra. In Indore division of Madhya Pradesh, the Kulmi are subdivided into a number of subsections such as the Kadve, the Leve, the Khade and the Moria Kulmi. The present study was re­ stricted to the Kadve subsection only. The Mali are also divided into a number of subcastes and the present study has been conducted among the Rami Mali subcaste. The Khati are generally known to be artisans as in Sitamau of Mandsaur district. But the Khati investigated in the present study are actually agriculturists living in Rangwasa and Tihi, the two villages situated on the outskirts of Indore and Mhow towns respectively. The Balai is a scheduled caste of weavers and watchmen (Russel, 1916) and occupy a low social status in caste hierarchy. Their caste structure, social life and material culture have been studied by Fuchs (1950). The Bhil, a scheduled tribe of central and west India has also been investigated.
