    International Journal of Research ISSN NO:2236-6124 Prominent Muslim Jamaaths in Kanyakumari District A. SHAHILA BANU Ph.D. Research Scholar (Reg. No.11842) Department of History, Women’s Christian College, Nagercoil – 629 001. Affiliated to Manonmaniam Sundaranar University, Abishekapatti, Tirunelveli – 627 012, Tamil Nadu, India. Abstract Islam in Kanyakumari District has been enriched by Fakirs and saintly savants of Islam. Due to their selfless service, Islam has thrived in this part of the country. The spread and growth of Islam is conspicuous by the presence of 52 Jamaaths in this district. These Jamaaths speak of their antiquity and they contain a lot of information regarding their life style and culture. In Kanyakumari District there are 52 Jamaaths. Among them six Muslim Jamaaths are considered very large and prominent. They are, Thengapattanam Muslim Jamaath, Colachel Muslim Jamaath, Thiruvithancode Muslim Jamaath, Thuckalay Muslim Jamaath, Elankadai Muslim Jamaath at Kottar, Malik Dinar faithulmal Muslim Jamaath, Kottar, Thittuvilai Muslim Jamaath. Some other Jamaaths are steadily growing in strength, stature and popularity. Keywords: Muslim Jamaath, Kanyakumari District, Life style, culture Introduction Jamaath means a Sangam, Federation or group based on some Islamic Principles. So it is said that a life without Jamaath is meaningless. If a Muslim keeps himself away from the Jamaath it means that he excommunicates himself from Islam. The Muslims form a Jamaath where they live and solve the problems that may arise out of marriage, divorce and other disputes. The solution to the problems would be based on the tenets of Holy Quran and the Hathees. Kanyakumari District Muslim Jamaath Federation was founded in 1982 at Thiruvithancode.

  • Lithological Studies and Types of Soils Along Coastal Area of Kanyakumari to Colachel Coastal Belt, South Tamil Nadu, India
    Nature Environment and Pollution Technology Vol. 7 No. 4 pp. 00-00 2008 An International Quarterly Scientific Journal Original Research Paper Lithological Studies and Types of Soils Along Coastal Area of Kanyakumari to Colachel Coastal Belt, South Tamil Nadu, India S. Bhagavathi Perumal and P. Thamarai* Department of Civil Engineering, National College of Engineering, Tirunelveli-627 151, T.N. *Department of Civil Engineering, Government College of Engineering, Tirunelveli-627 007, T.N. ABSTRACT Key Words: Lithological studies Soil types of an area are more important, since soil is the main criteria in agricultural Coastal area production and in recharge of groundwater. Different types of soils are derived Kanyakumari from a wide range of geological formations. Knowledge about type of soils, its Colachel coastal belt extent and occurrence is of primary importance for agricultural planning to maximize production and for groundwater recharge. The soils of the district from Kanyakumari to Colachel coastal belt can be classified into red loams, red lateritic soil and pale reddish. They are derived from lateralization of gneisses. The soils derived from gneisses are mostly brownish. Thickness of soils in mountains is almost negligible, whereas in the valleys they are around 2m thick. The lateritic type of soil occurs in blocks of Rajakkamangalam. The mixed type of red and alluvial soil occurs in Agastheeswaram block. The coastal sand occurs in the western side of the district. The coastal alluvium sand is of high fertility. Generally, the soils are highly acidic in the coastal area. This is mainly due to heavy rainfall and heavy leaching of basic rock in hilly areas.
