ISBN: 978-93-84659-29-5 Proceedings of National Seminar on Biodiversity Conservation and Role of Student Youth iii Mr. K. Devender Babu Head, Dept. of Botany Girraj Govt. College (A), Nizamabad FOREWARD OF THE CONVENER I feel myself justified in selecting the title “Biodiversity Conservation – Role of Student Youth” for this Seminar. The aggrieved nature and its expression in the form of disturbances in the seasonal cycles, increased earth’s temperature, sudden calamities etc., are because of its excess expliotation. Nature continuously interacts with its living component, exchange energy via (Bio-geo) Natural cycles. Living variability of the Biosphere is Biodiversity. Living forms and their surroundings uninterruptedly interact and exchange energy, through cyclic paths and mechanism because of excess interference of human kind is disturbed. Excess interference is harming natures balance and functions, altering the energy flow. Population explosion is compelling the society for indiscriminate exploitation to fulfill the needs. Result is rapid urbanization, industrialization with effluent release and deforestation. All these are causing harm to Bio-diversity and changing its functions. The imbalance in nature’s structure and Ecosystems are altering the energy flow directions. Debates and discussions to conserve nature and its biodiversity at international level are already started (Earth summit, Reo conference, Hyderabad convention and recent Paris summit). A positive step in this direction is the recent cop of Paris where in the resolution to reduce Earth’s temperature by 2o was passed. We hope and look forward for its implementation. The present seminar is endeavoring to switch on a debate at local level, create awareness and sensitize educated youth and to carry the message rural to society. Though laws are made to protect nature, they are to be implemented and monitored. I express my sincere and honest gratitude to beloved Chief Minister of Telangana State, Sri. K. Chandra Shekar Rao garu for proposing and implementing ‘Haritha Haaram’. My sincere thanks are to UGC (SERO) for funding to organize this seminar. My sincere thanks to Dr. V. Rajendra Prasad garu, Principal of the College, also to the advisory Committee and my Colleagues and all the persons who have directly or indirectly helped for successful organization of the event. I also extend my thanks to Dr. A. A. Haleem Khan and Mrs. T. Umakiran for their herculean task of shaping the souvenir.

  • Review Article Remote Sensing and Active Tectonics of South India
    International Journal of Remote Sensing Vol. 27, No. 20, 20 October 2006, 4397–4431 Review Article Remote sensing and active tectonics of South India S. M. RAMASAMY* Centre for Remote Sensing, School of Geosciences, Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli – 620023, Tamil Nadu, India (Received 30 June 2004; in final form 29 November 2005 ) The Indian Peninsula in general and its southern part in particular has been thought to be a stable shield area and hence inert to younger earth movements and seismicities. However, in addition to fast relapsing seismicities, the studies carried out by earlier workers during the past three decades indicate possible pulsatory tectonism, at least since the Jurassics. The present study is a newer attempt to identify, analyse, and spatially amalgamate a large number of anomalies visibly displayed by the tectonic, fluvial, coastal, and hydrological systems in remote sensing and ground based datasets/observations, and to finally paint a fair picture on the active tectonic scenario of South India. The study reveals that the phenomena, viz. extensive soil erosion, reservoir siltation, sediment dump into the ocean, preferential migration of rivers, restricted marine regression, shrinkage of back waters, withdrawal of creeks, fall of groundwater table, etc., indicate two E– W trending ongoing tectonic (Cymatogenic) archings along Mangalore–Chennai in the north and Cochin–Ramanathapuram in the south. Intervening these two arches, a cymatogenic deep along Ponnani–Palghat–Manamelkudi exhibiting phenomena opposite to the above is observed. In addition, the characteristic tectonic, geomorphic, and hydrological anomalies observed in 1B satellite FCC data, as well as in the field, indicate N–S trending extensional, NE–SW sinistral, and NW–SE dextral strike slip faults.

    Indian Journal of Traditional Knowledge Vol. 8(4), October 2009, pp 592-597 Ethnomedicinal studies of the woody species of Kalrayan & Shervarayan Hills, Eastern Ghats, Tamil Nadu K Kadavul* & AK Dixit Department of Plant Science, KM Centre for Postgraduate Studies, Lawspet, Puducherry 605 008 E-mail: [email protected] Received 26 June 2007; revised 3 November 2008 Some ethnobotanical observations have been made amongst the aboriginals of the Shervarayan & Kalrayan hills of Eastern Ghats in Tamil Nadu. The paper describes ethnomedicinal importance of 60 woody species belonging to 51 genera and 34 families. Data are based on extensive survey, observations and discussions with tribal and rural people of this region. In forests of both Shervarayan & Kalrayan hills, locals have converted a substantial portion of forests into cultivated lands. The importance of recording the usage of plants in this region is imperative because of rapid loss of forest wealth and tradi- tional wisdom. Intensive action plan need to be immediately implemented for sustainable use of forest resources together with the ethnobotanical knowledge base of the forest dwellers. In view of the various resources use, habitat uniqueness and anthropological pressure on the forest resources, the need for conservation is stressed.

Prem Nazeer Ph.D. Research Scholar, Post Graduate and Research Department of History Aringar Anna Government Arts College, Musiri -621 211, Tamil Nadu The tribal population is identified as the aboriginal inhabitants of our country. For centuries, they have been living a simple life based on the natural environment and have developed cultural patterns congenial to their physical and social environment. References to of such tribal groups are found even in the literature on the ancient period, right from the Ramayana and the Mahabharata periods. According to L.P.Vithyarthi tribe is a social group with definite territory, common name, common descent, common culture, behaviour of an endogamous group, common taboos, and existence of distinctive social and political system, full faith in leaders and self-sufficiency in their district economy. There are approximately two hundred million tribal people in the entire globe, which means, about 4%of the global population. They are found in many regions of the world and majority of them are the poorest amongst poor. According to India’s most recent census in 2011 Schedule Tribes comprise 8.6% of the total population. The distribution of ST populations varies widely across India’s state and territories. In Mizoram and Lakshadweep, STs represent close to 95% of the population whereas in Kerala and Tamil Nadu STs represent only 1% of the population. Among the total ST population in India, the highest populations are found in Madhya Pradesh (14.5%) , Maharashtra (10.2%), and Orissa (9.7%).
