INTRODUCTION Preliminary survey and assessment: The Planning Commission had suggested in February, 1968 that the States may undertake a review of economic development and the success of various programmes from 1950-51 onwards so that such an assessment would pro­ vide a basis for determining the objectives and priorities for the Fourth Five-Year Plan. The State Government had taken up such a review in September, 1967 itself and as a result a survey of the economic development of Andhra Pradesh from 1951 to 1968 was published in February, 1968. 2. With regard to a detailed appraisal of the various schemes that had been undertaken under the Plans in the past, it was felt that it would be useful to have the views of the Zilla Development Boards regarding the utility of these schemes based on their performance at the field level. The Zilla Development Boards were, therefore, requested in March, 1968 to undertake a review of the per­ formance of different programmes taken up under the Five-Year Plans and send a report to the Government and the Head of Department concerned on the following lines: — (a) The objectives of the scheme—whether these are well-conceived and continue to be valid; (b) whether the scheme has been well designed for achieving the specified objectives; if not what the defects are; (c) whether on the basis of performance so far, the scheme should be continued during the Fourth Plan period or closed down; (d) if the scheme is to be continued what modifica­ tions if any would be suggested particularly economy in staff, subsidies, etc. 3. In order to facilitate a critical analysis of the exist­ ing conditions and the performance of past programmes, SP/301—1 the Zilla Development Boards were asked, as suggested by the Planning Commission, to prepare maps for each area depicting the existing infra-structure and the poten­ tialities based on the natural resources of the area. Working groups : 4. In June, 1968 orders were issued constituting 12 Working Groups for the different subjects indicated in the annexure. The terms of reference for the Working Groups were given as follows: (a) to make a critical review of the performance and achievement under the Plan schemes in the last three years in the sectors with which they are concerned; (b) to make an assessment of the spill-over commit­ ments for the new Fourth Five-Year Plan; (c) to revise the earlier Working Group reports re­ garding the original Fourth Plan proposals in the light of (a) and (b) above; (d) to specify the objectives and programmes in the respective sectors for the new Fourth Five-Year Plan, 1969-74 taking into account the potentialities of the State. 5. The Working Groups were also informed that as soon as an assessment of the State’s resources for financing the State’s Fourth Plan was made, the Government would take a tentative decision regarding the size of the State’s new Fourth Five-Year Plan and the sectoral allocations. The programmes to be included under each sector in the new Fourth Plan could then be worked out in greater detail. Meanwhile the Working Groups were asked to consider the fourth term of reference given above in the context of the other three terms of reference and the allo­ cations already approved under the earlier Rs. 522 crore Plan. 6. Each Working Group was also required to study and analyse the employment potential of the programmes recommended and the availability of manpower for the new Fourth Plan. The Working Groups were also asked to give special attention to the problem of employment of skilled personnel such as Engineers etc., produced by existing technical and educational institutions. Association of Zilla Development Boards with the process of Plan formulation : 7. In view of the very tight time schedule given for the various stages of the preparation of the draft Fourth Five-Year Plan, the Working Groups could not wait for reports from the various Zilla Development Boards with regard to their own assessment of the functioning of the various Plan schemes so far. The Working Groups there­ fore had to consider the first term of reference indicated in para 4 above in the light of the assessment given by the Head of Department concerned himself. However, in order to ensure that the Zilla Development Boards conti­ nue to be associated in the process of formulating the Plan while at the same time adhering to the time sche­ dules indicated by the Planning Commission, two proce­ dures have been adopted. 8. Firstly the Working Groups were requested to ensure that while finalising the proposals for each Department they indicated the schemes and the outlays which would form part of the District Plans. The Heads of Depart­ ments would then break up these outlays into district segments so that based on these the Zilla Development Boards could subsequently take up the detailed formula­ tion of Plans at the district level. 9. At the time Zilla Development Boards were consti­ tuted in November, 1967 and charged with the responsi­ bility for the economic growth of the district it was stated that their task would be to formulate and implement pro­ grammes designed to secure the economic growth of the districts and in particular programmes connected with agriculture and industrial production. In order to en­ able the Zilla Development Boards to discharge this responsibility the State Heads of Departments concerned with schemes relating to agricultural and industrial pro­ duction were asked to furnish to each District Collector within 15 days of the Budget being approved each year a list of schemes, both Plan and non-Plan, that were to be taken up in that district during the year and the provisions available for these schemes. The Zilla Development Boards have to examine the productive potentialities of each of these schemes and fix targets of production to be achieved during the year. The Collectors were also given powers of the Head of the Department for reappropriat- ing the Budgetary provisions under the same head. The intention, therefore, is that just as the Zilla Develop­ ment Boards formulate district plans each year based on the district segments of the Budget communicated by the various Heads of Departments, they should also formu­ late the Fourth Five-Year Plan for the district based on the allocations available under different sectors in the Fourth Five-Year Plan as indicated by the Heads of Departments and an assessment of the local resources. The powers given to the Boards to reappropriate alloca­ tions would give them the necessary initiative for pre­ paring a District Plan based on local resources and potentialities. 10. The other steps that has been taken is to ensure that the Working Groups that deal with schemes having a bearing on planning at the district level keep in view the varying levels of development of different regions of the State and in respect of such sectors certain district- wise indicators of the level of development have been worked out and intimated to the Working Groups con­ cerned. The Working Groups have been asked to take into consideration the existing level of development of the different areas in the State and see how far the allo­ cations could be made with a view to reducing the regio­ nal imbalances. For instance, in the case of irrigation the percentage of gross area irrigated to gross area sown was worked out for each district and the attention of the Working Group was drawn to the fact that the percen­ tage in respect of certain regions was less than the State average. The Working Group was informed that one of the aims of the Fourth Five-Year Plan, as mentioned in the Approach Paper approved by the National Develop­ ment Council, was to minimise differences in the levels of development between different regions within the State also and that as such one of the considerations while preparing a Plan for irrigation, would have to be to see how the percentage of irrigation could be increased in these areas where it was at present far "below the State average.

  • Geology of Eastern Ghats in Andhra Pradesh
    GEOLOGY OF EASTERN GHATS IN ANDHRA PRADESH BY A. SRIRAaMADAS (Geology Departrael;t, Andhra UMversity, Waltair) Received October 2, 1967 (Communicated by Prof. C. S. Pi¢lmmuthu,t.A.sc.) ABSTRACT The lithology, structure, metamorphism and stratigraphy of the granite gneisses, charnoekite series, khondalite series and .granites occur- ring in the Eastern Ghats of Andhra Pradesh are described. The granite gneisses consist of the garnetiferous granite gneiss, the grey granite gneiss and porphyritic granite gneiss. The charnockite series consists of granite, diorite, gabbro, norite, amphibolite and pyroxenite. The khondalite series comprises gneisses, schists, quattzites, and granulites, metamorphosed from argillaceous, arenaceous and calcareous sediments. The granites include the pink granites and pegmatites. The formations are highly folded with thrusts and strike slip faults. The granite gneisses, charnockite series and khondalite series are metamorphosed to the gra. nulite facies, with a few members in the amphibolite facies and occasional members in the eclogite facies. Some granite gneisses are the oldest rocks present, and others contempolaneous with charnockite selies, which are themselves older than or contemporaneous with the khondalite series. The pink granites and pegmatites are the youngest rocks of the region. LOCATION TttE Eastern Ghats in Andhra Pradesh are situated between Latitudes 16° and 19 °, and Longitudes 80 ° and 85 ° , and stretch for about 350 miles from Srikakulam District in the north, through Visakhapatnam, Godavari and Krishna Districts, to Guntur District in the south. They include Kurupam, Madugula, Anantagiri, Gudem, Chodavaram, Papikonda, Kondapalli and Kondavidu hill ranges. GEOLOGICAL FORMATIONS Fermor ~1936) included the Eastern Ghsts in the garnetiferous type (manganese ore) marble provine belonging to the charnockite region.

  • Inter State Agreements
    ORISSA STATE WATER PLAN 2 0 0 4 INTER STATE AGGREMENTS Orissa State Water Plan 9 INTER STATE AGREEMENTS Orissa State has inter state agreements with neighboring states of West Bengal, Jharkhand ( formerly Bihar),Chattisgarh (Formerly Madhya Pradesh) and Andhra Pradesh on Planning & Execution of Irrigation Projects. The Basin wise details of such Projects are briefly discussed below:- (i) Mahanadi Basin: Hirakud Dam Project: Hirakud Dam was completed in the year 1957 by Government of India and there was no bipartite agreement between Government of Orissa and Government of M.P. at that point of time. However the issues concerning the interest of both the states are discussed in various meetings:- Minutes of the meeting of Madhya Pradesh and ORISSA officers of Irrigation & Electricity Departments held at Pachmarhi on 15.6.73. IBB DIVERSION SCHEME: 3. Secretary, Irrigation & Power, Orissa pointed out that Madhya Pradesh is constructing a diversion weir on Ib river. This river is a source of water supply to the Orient Paper Mill at Brajrajnagar as well as to Sundergarh, a District town in Orissa State. Government of Orissa apprehends that the summer flows in Ib river will get reduced at the above two places due to diversion in Madhya Pradesh. Madhya Pradesh Officers explained that this work was taken up as a scarcity work in 1966- 77 and it is tapping a catchment of 174 Sq. miles only in Madhya Pradesh. There is no live storage and Orissa should have no apprehensions as regards the availability of flows at the aforesaid two places. It was decided that the flow data as maintained by Madhya Pradesh at the Ib weir site and by Orissa at Brajrajnagar and Sundergarh should be exchanged and studied.

  • Legal Instruments on Rivers in India Vol II
    FOR OFFICE USE ONLY AWARDS OF INTER-STATE WATER DISPUTES TRIBUNALS CENTRAL WATER COMMISSION INTER STATE MATTERS DIRECTORATE-1 NEW DELHI JANUARY, 2018 PREFACE India has been endowed with considerable water resources through numerous small and large rivers. Some of the larger Indian Rivers like the Indus or the Ganga- Brahmaputra-Meghna are international rivers. These and most of the other rivers are the inter-State rivers. Of the total geographical area of India, approximately 95% of the area is under international or inter-State rivers. The water resources development of these rivers takes place within the legal framework of development of the inter-State rivers. A sufficient familiarity with this legal framework (that is both its generalities and the specifics of a particular problem) is therefore, an essential pre-requisite for anyone interested in Planning, Development, Operation and Management of water resources of these rivers. The basic legal instruments which need to be referred to in this context can be classified as:- 1. The Constitutional provisions relevant to inter-State rivers. 2. Treaties or agreements between India and other countries in regard to development of international rivers/ basins. 3. The Laws enacted by the Parliament in connection with the development, use and regulation of inter-State rivers. 4. The awards and the proceedings of the inter-State water disputes tribunals set up by the Central Government. 5. Notifications, Resolutions, Orders etc. issued by the Central Government in pursuance of the Laws or Tribunal awards, setting up agencies, machineries or procedures to deal with inter-State rivers, from time to time.

  • 1. Salient Features of East Godavari District
    District Survey Report - 2018 1. Salient Features of East Godavari District East Godavari District which is one of the largest and the most populous district in the state of Andhra Pradesh, was successively ruled by Mauryas, Sathavahanas, Vishnu Kundins, Eastern Chalukyas, Cholas, Kakatiyas, Musunuri Chieftains, Kondaveeti Reddy Kings, Gajapathis, Kutubshahis and then by the British. It was under the Raj. On April 15, 1925, East Godavari District was formed as per G.O.No.502. East Godavari is the richest district of the state, in terms of GDP. It is both the cultural and tourist hub of the state. East Godavari is a district in Coastal Andhra region of Andhra Pradesh, India. Its district headquarters is at Kakinada. As of Census 2011, it became the most populous district of the state. Rajahmundry and Kakinada are the two large cities in the Godavari districts in terms of population. The district of Rajahmundry (present name Rajamahendravaram) was reorganised in 1859 into two districts of Godavari and Krishna. Godavari District was further bifurcated into East and West Godavari districts in 1925. After Nov 1956, Andhra Pradesh was formed by combining parts of Naizam, Ceded and Circars. In 1959, the Bhadrachalam revenue division, consisting of Bhadrachalam and Naguru Taluqs (2 Taluqas in 1959 but later subdivided into Wajedu, Venkatapruram, Charla, Dummugudem, Bhadrachalam, Nellipaka, Chinturu, Kunavaram, and Vara Rama Chandra Puram mandals) of East Godavari district were merged into the Khammam district. After June 2014's reorganisation and division of Andhra Pradesh, the Mandals of Bhadrachalam (with the exception of Bhadrachalam Temple), Nellipaka, Chinturu, Kunavaram and Vara Rama Chandra Puram were re-added to East Godavari District.
