At the same time mass tourism in this region is a major contributor to sewage and solid waste pollution, deforestation, coastal erosion and sedimentation from construction activities. Beach degradation from tourism depends on the number of tourists inflow, the rate of growth of the tourism industry, improper planning and lack of control. Tourism-related physical changes are also widespread for expanding tourism infrastructure projects. The present study is an effort to examine the role of Coastal tourism in Odisha, especially in Puri, Konark, Gopalpur and Chandipur which affect the socio-economic life of the local communities and environmental degradation of the quality of beaches. In the study area, development was based on a rapid growth of tourist demand and chaotic development of tourist facilities. Erosion is very common in Odisha coast. Solutions like sand re-nourishment have not stopped the erosion process. The rising number of tourists exerts a strong pressure on these beaches. Key objective of this paper is to find out how to maintain balance between positive and negative impacts of beach tourism to get optimum benefits and maintain sustainability by protecting it from the environmental catastrophe, manmade hazards followed by beach degradation.

  • A Case Study on “Beach-Tourism Potential of Odisha
    Journal of Kashmir for Tourism and Catering Technology Vol. 1, No. 2, December 2014 ISSN 2348 1986 A Case Study On “Beach-Tourism Potential Of Odisha Debasis Sahoo Assistant Professor, (SOTTHM) Central University of Himachal Pradesh Dharamshala, HP-176215 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Beaches have always been the key to the development since time ages and its varied potential has always given birth to various industries whether at its vicinity or at a distant place. The tourism industry is no way different and has utilised this potential many folds in substantial ways across the globe. Beach tourism tends to generate and cater to the tourist traffic that looks for avenues which will give a completely new experience to the tourists (SIT-Special Interest Tourism). Perpetually washed by the blue waters of the Bay of Bengal, Odisha lies on the eastern coast of India & endowed with exquisite & relatively virgin unexplored beaches each having a unique feature of its own. Identifying the major sea beaches across the state & analysing the statistical data in order to find out the potential of beach tourism in Odisha was the primary objective of the research. As the majority of the tourist (75%) travel for the purpose of business or holidaying & the higher duration of stay during the lean season by the foreigners clearly indicates the state’s Beach tourism potential. Hence the tourist infrastructure has to be revamped in the identified beach destinations to witness a higher foreign as well as domestic tourist inflow in the coming years. Finally the implication of the six 'S' in Odisha tourism policy that has been implemented successfully by Kerala would certainly rejuvenate the potential of Beach Tourism in Odisha.

    ADALYA JOURNAL ISSN NO: 1301-2746 Confronting and Coping with Resilient Environment by Fishermen Community of Penthakata, Puri during Fani Er. Sagarika Panda, Dr. Siba Prasad Mishra Civil Engineering Department, Centurion University of Technology and Management Abstract: This paper explores the challenges and opportunities for confirming and coping of the nomadic but now settled as domicile, the fishermen Telugu community at Penthakata, Puri Town by the cyclone FANI. The extreme severe cyclonic storm, Fani shattered the coastal fishing trade/craft/gears where it slammed Puri coast on 3rd May with gusting wind speed of 185-213 Km/hr, central eye pressure drop of 50hPa. The cyclone has devastated the Penthakata, a fishermen village (Ward No 26 &32 of Puri Municipality), on land fall, which is prone to cyclones, surge inundation, erosion on high waves and tides. The present focused area is coping with the physically, psychologically and economically devastations made to the developing fishermen community domiciled at Coastal areas of northern flange of Puri Municipality as migrant settlers. Field survey was conducted in these areas of Puri town as case studies of pre and post Fani losses. According to local people, the ignorance about the knowledge of safe building code for cyclone resilient structures, community infrastructural facilities, issuing authentic land holding (Patta) and poverty alleviation programs are the main causes of their sufferings. This paper presents details of data collection and modifications after the disaster Fani and disaster Impact analysis. The lessons learnt are need for Disaster- risk Management Programs based upon community participation, institutions for disaster management creation and strengthening, emergency response/rehabilitation cyclone centers, awareness initiatives and emergency operation centers on short-term/ long-term plans.

The World Tourism Organization defines tourists as people ‘travelling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for a period of not less than 24 hours and not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business and other purposes’. Tourism requires necessary infrastructure and services for tourists. It is a conglomeration of several activities and has the potential to stimulate employment generation in related fields like Hotels, Transport, Shopping, Food, Entertainment, Guiding etc. It is the tourism and hospitality sector which binds together a lot of other employment generating sectors through backward and forward linkages. Over the past decades, tourism has experienced continued growth and diversification to evolve as one of the fastest growing economic sectors in the world. Today, the business volume of tourism equals or even surpasses that of oil exports, food products and automobiles.

  • Odisha Diary
    1 ODISHA DIARY Anil K Rajvanshi Email: [email protected] (1) I was invited to give 2 lectures in late January 2012 at National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST), Berhampur, Orissa. This gave me an opportunity to see Orissa after 30 years. (2) NIST is run by a dynamic IIT Kanpur alumnus Sangram Mudali. He is trying to set up a first class Institute of Technology in Orissa almost modeled on IITs. I gave a lecture on social entrepreneurship to his MBA/engineering students. (3) NIST also conducts a program (funded by DST) called Inspire. In this program the toppers of Orissa schools (CBSE, ICSE and Odisha board) are invited for a 4-5 days camp at NIST campus to be inspired to join S&T stream for higher studies. I was the chief guest of this program this time. It was a wonderful experience to interact with nearly 400 bright students of class XI/XII and to respond to their sharp questions. This was the third time that “Inspire” camp is being conducted at NIST. (4) Orissa of 2012 is very changed from that of 1981! After all the country has changed so why should Orissa be different? In 1981 Bhubaneshwar was a 2 sleepy town which could be easily explored by riding a cycle rickshaw. Today it is a sprawling, noisy and congested city. (5) In 1981 I and my wife Nandini had visited Orissa in late December. The occasion was the honeymoon trip of my brother Alok. We had visited Puri, Konarak, Chilika lake Nandan-Kanan and Bhubaneshwar.
