A Gap Analysis of Protected Areas of Andhra Pradesh and Suggestion For Journal of American Science 2010;6(11) Gap Analysis for Protected Areas of Andhra Pradesh, India for conserving biodiversity C. Sudhakar Reddy Forestry and Ecology Division, National Remote Sensing Centre, Indian Space Research Organisation, Balanagar, Hyderabad -500 625, India [email protected] Abstract: A gap analysis was carried out to assess the Protected Area (PA) network system in Andhra Pradesh, India. The decisive factors of vegetation type distribution, elevation and endemism was used to determine the representativeness of PA system. In Andhra Pradesh, vegetation cover occupies 23.03% of geographical area and distributed in Coastal Plains, Deccan Plateau and Eastern Ghats. There are 27 PAs for conservation in Andhra Pradesh. The total area protected for biodiversity is about 12,555 km2 or 4.56% of geographical area of Andhra Pradesh. Of the three physiographic regions, Eastern Ghats represents very high area under PAs which was estimated as 7811.38 km2 followed by Deccan plateau of 3526.89 km2. Three main forest types (semi evergreen forests, thorn forests and dry evergreen forests) missing in the existing PA network were identified. Moist deciduous forests of Eastern Ghats of northern Andhra Pradesh were under-represented in PAs. The land area in an elevation range of 900m-1527m was not included in PA network. Of the 103 species of endemics, 64 species were not included in PA system. Many PAs are experiencing threat from invasive species, forest fires, grazing pressure etc. There is a need to consider for possible ways for effective conservation and to extend the present PA network system in India.

Introduction India is one of the mega-diversity nations in the International treaties call for the world. India has 590 PAs (ca. 500 wildlife conservation of biodiversity in all its manifestations sanctuaries and 90 national parks. PAs of India cover including ecosystem level diversity. Conservation 156,700 km², roughly 4.95% of the total geographical biology is concerned with developing the scientific area (http://en.wikipedia.org.2010). There is a support for conservation policy and management pressing requirement to identify gap areas of high decisions. Conservation efforts have focused on biological richness to declare new Protected Areas in maintaining biodiversity through establishment of India. Spatially explicit inventories of vegetation networks of protected areas. Protected areas (PAs) types and land cover permit comparisons between are the priority centers of biodiversity and wildlife particular vegetation distributions and distributions of conservation. The criteria of biodiversity inventory, land cover, land-cover change, expected changes and vegetation type distribution, topographic variability, issues of protected areas. With the current trend of climatic gradient and biotic pressure are basic stuff in increasing rate of deforestation and loss of habitats in conservation planning. These surrogates can be densely populated developing countries, there is a effective at representing other aspects of biodiversity, urgent need to generate database which is available such as ecological uniqueness, species distributions, for planning, decision making and further objective species diversity and contiguous intact natural oriented requirements. Satellite remote sensing along habitats (Kirkpatrick and Brown, 1994, Wessels et al. with Geographic Information System (GIS) provides 1999). Conservation planning exercises also call for a cost and time effective solution to collect, process data on the distribution of PAs. But many PA and integrate database in an effective manner. systems across the world were chosen based on In the present study, an attempt was made to identify socio-economic and aesthetic criteria (Oldfield et al. ‘gap areas’ in PA network of Andhra Pradesh, India 2004).

Rogers Myron Weiner a ........ .................. ..... .......... C/77-5 INTERNAL MIGRATION POLICIES IN AN INDIAN STATE: A CASE STUDY OF THE MULKI RULES IN HYDERABAD AND ANDHRA K.V. Narayana Rao Migration and Development Study Group Center for International Studies Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 August 1977 Preface by Myron Weiner This study by Dr. K.V. Narayana Rao, a political scientist and Deputy Director of the National Institute of Community Development in Hyderabad who has specialized in the study of Andhra Pradesh politics, examines one of the earliest and most enduring attempts by a state government in India to influence the patterns of internal migration. The policy of intervention began in 1868 when the traditional ruler of Hyderabad State initiated steps to ensure that local people (or as they are called in Urdu, mulkis) would be given preferences in employment in the administrative services, a policy that continues, in a more complex form, to the present day. A high rate of population growth for the past two decades, a rapid expansion in education, and a low rate of industrial growth have combined to create a major problem of scarce employment opportunities in Andhra Pradesh as in most of India and, indeed, in many countries in the third world. It is not surprising therefore that there should be political pressures for controlling the labor market by those social classes in the urban areas that are best equipped to exercise political power.

    The Crafts and Textiles of Hyderabad and Telangana 11 Days/10 Nights Activities Overnight Day 1 Fly U.S. to Hyderabad. Upon arrival, you will be transferred to Hyderabad your hotel by private car. Day 2 The city of Hyderabad was constructed in 1591 by King Hyderabad Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah of the Qutb Shahi dynasty, which ruled this region of the Deccan plateau from 1507 to 1687. During this time, the Sultanate faced numerous incursions by the Mughals and the Hindu Marathas. In 1724, the Mughal governor of the Deccan arrived to govern the city. His official title was the Nizam- ul-Muluk, or Administrator of the Realm. After the death of Emperor Aurangzeb, he declared his independence and established the Asaf Jahi dynasty of Nizams. The Nizams of Hyderabad were known for their tremendous wealth, which came from precious gems mined in nearby Golconda (see Day 3), the area's natural resources, a vibrant pearl trade, agricultural taxes and friendly cooperation with the British. Much of the architecture still existing in Hyderabad thus dates from the reigns of the Qutb Shahi Sultans or the Nizams. European influences were introduced by the British in the 19th and 20th centuries. At the center of old Hyderabad sits the Charminar, or "four towers," which dates to 1591 and is surrounded by a lively bazaar and numerous mosques and palaces. This morning we will enjoy a leisurely walk through the area. We will stop to admire the colorful tile mosaics found inside the Badshahi Ashurkhana. This Royal House of Mourning was built in 1595 as a congregation hall for Shia Muslims during Muharram.

  • Polavaram: a Disaster in the Making and a Coastal Andhra Sin
    Polavaram: A Disaster in the Making and a Coastal Andhra Sin By Gautam Pingle - HYDERABAD Published: 10th February 2014 09:36 AM http://www.newindianexpress.com/states/andhra_pradesh/Polavaram-A-Disaster- in-the-Making--a-Coastal-Andhra- Sin/2014/02/10/article2048570.ece#.UvhTJfuHPgE THE AP State Reorganisation Bill2013, as approved by the Union cabinet on February 7, has given the Polavaram irrigation project an orange (not green) light. It gives 397 inundation villages in Bhadrachalam and Palvancha divisions in Khammam district to Seemandhra. It also says the future Telangana government is “deemed to consent” to Polavaram _ a measure the Supreme Court will strike down. Polavaram is supposed to irrigate huge acreage, stabilise the Godavari Delta for the second and third crops and divert Godavari water to further stabilise the Krishna Delta for three crops. It also hopes to provide drinking and irrigation water to north coastal Andhra. The reservoir will inundate 397 tribal villages and flood thousands of acres of valuable forest land. Nearly 2.5 lakh tribal people will be displaced from their homes in Bhadrachalam alone. It will create a problem five times bigger than the Narmada Sagar dam where only 60,000 tribal people were displaced. Chhattisgarh and Odisha have moved the Supreme Court against the project and tribal displacement. The Union ministry of environment and forests, on February 8, 2011, directed the state not to start construction and to reduce the dam’s height to minimise inundation. But the Seemandhra’s contention is that reducing the height of the dam will prevent diversion of Godavari water to the Krishna Delta.

  • Pattern of Development in India - a Study of Andhra Pradesh
    Pattern of Development in India - A Study of Andhra Pradesh SER Division Planning Commission Government of India Main Findings of the Study Andhra Pradesh was formed on 1st November 1956. It comprises of Coastal Andhra, Rayalaseema and Telangana regions. Each region has its own distinct characteristics. It is the fifth largest state in terms of the area in our country. There is significant improvement in literacy level of the rural population during 1990's. But the employment opportunities have not improved. As a result, there is huge stock of educated unemployed constituting both male and female in rural areas of Andhra Pradesh. Although, the state has achieved remarkable progress in establishing schools, Junior Colleges and Degree colleges during 1980-81 and 2000-01, most of them were in private sector. The number of high schools increased from 4106 to 10,359, Junior Colleges 398 to 2449, Degree Colleges 450 to 1157 during the same time. There is marketisation of education in Andhra Pradesh in recent years. Only the elite class children could reap the benefits of private education. 113 The economy of the state is basically agrarian in character. The percentage of irrigated area is very low i.e., below 40 percent. The plan allocations by the state Government for irrigation had been declining from plan to plan. Though the state is well endowed with natural resources and minerals, it is lagging behind other states in the country with regard to per capital income, literacy level and other parameters. There is no significant improvement in the number of hospitals/ dispensaries available in the state during 1980-81 and 2000-01.

The main pomegranate producing areas are distributed between 300 and 950 m above mean sea level in hot arid and semi-arid regions having tropical and subtropical climate. Interestingly, the major production of pomegranate in India is from Deccan Plateau, especially from Maharashtra followed by Karnataka. The agro-climatic condition of Deccan Plateau is congenial for staggering of pomegranate production throughout the year. Maharashtra contributes about 84% in area and 75% in production of pomegranate in Deccan Plateau. Mainly three flowering seasons viz. winter (January-February flowering), rainy season (June-July flowering) and autumn season (September-October flowering) are promoted for fruit production in this plateau. In the present paper, information pertaining to Deccan Plateau and its climatic and soil conditions and existing cultivation practices of pomegranate has been envisaged. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Keywords: climatic conditions of Deccan

  • A Study of Electrocardiography and Kidney Function Test in Newlydiagnosed Hypertensive Patients in Coastal Andhra Pradesh
    Jebmh.com Original Research Article A STUDY OF ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHY AND KIDNEY FUNCTION TEST IN NEWLY- DIAGNOSED HYPERTENSIVE PATIENTS IN COASTAL ANDHRA PRADESH Ramswaroop Jawaharlal 1, Sneha K2 1Associate Professor, Department of General Medicine, Konaseema Institute of Medical Sciences, Andhra Pradesh. 2Postgraduate Student, Department of General Medicine, Konaseema Institute of Medical Sciences, Andhra Pradesh. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND As per the fact sheet published by World Health Organisation, South East Asia, nearly one billion people have high blood pressure and are one of the most common causes of premature death worldwide. About one third of the adult population in the South East Asia region is having hypertension. In our country, the number of people with hypertension are undiagnosed and untreated, so early detection and treatment of hypertension will decrease the complication of hypertension and premature death due to it. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a prospective study conducted in the Department of General Medicine, Konaseema Institute of Medical Sciences, Amalapuram, from May 2015 to August 2017.
