Abstract:
Damodar River basin is one of the most important river basins in India. The rich natural resource base of the basin in terms of coal, minerals, forests and fertile agricultural lands have supported livelihood of millions of people over centuries. The Damodar basin morphology character causes frequent flooding in the lower catchment during monsoon. Over the centuries this natural disaster severely affects the life and property of the lower catchment. Presence of coal and minerals initiated mining and industrialisation in the basin since last 150 years. Damodar Valley Corporation was formed in 1

Abstract:
In the Lower Gangetic Plain of West Bengal, the furious monsoon flood of Damodar River is a recurrent hydrometeorological phenomenon which is now intensified by the human activities. At present, the flood regulation system of Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC) is not capable of managing gigantic inflow water (which appeared as surface runoff and channel flow) coming from the wide fan-shaped upper catchment of Damodar River. As a result, the lower basin of Damodar (covering Barddhaman, Hooghly, and Howrah districts of West Bengal) annually experiences low to high magnitude of floods and overflow

Abstract:
Ajoy, Mayurakshi, Kansabati are three important river catchments of West Bengal and Jharkhand state, received very heavy rainfall during two consecutive days of flood season in the month of September 2009. The contribution of heavy rainfall & combined discharges from Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC) reservoirs during the period of heavy rainspells over these catchments enhanced flood situation in some districts of West Bengal. The synoptic features based on weather charts, cloud imageries of satellite and radar pictures have been taken to analyse. The realized areal average precipitation (

Abstract:
This paper aims to assess the weather risk exposure of Indian power sector from both generation and demand sides. The study considers two representative firms – firstly, Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC), a hydro-generator, to assess its rainfall exposure, and secondly, Calcutta Electric Supply Corporation (CESC), a retail power supplier, to assess the temperature sensitivity of power demand. The study opts for ‘Value at Risk’ approach, which combines both the sensitivity of power variables towards weather variable and the probability of weather change. The sensitivity is measured using regress

Mineralogical, chemical and morphological characteristics of fly ash collected from three thermal power stations viz. Bokaro Thermal Power Station (BTPS), Chandrapura Thermal Power Station (CTPS) and Durgapur Thermal Power Station (DTPS) of Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC), India have been well addressed in the present paper through analytical studies. The study reflects that all three samples are F type of fly ashes. According to mineralogical study quartz is the major component in all the three fly ash samples while the minor components are magnetite and hematite. Morphological study using s

Abstract:
A geomorphological instantaneous unit hydrograph (GIUH) model was developed for a watershed of Damodar valley corporation, Hazaribagh, using Nash (1959) and Itrube (1982) methods to compute peak discharge (qpeak) and time to peak (tpeak). The model was calibrated and validated for five storm events, i.e. June 24-25 (1992), October 12-13 (1993), November 2-3 (1993), June 28 (1994) and August 6 (1996) by comparing their ordinates with the ordinates of instantaneous unit hydrograph (IUH). The GIUH was tested with absolute prediction errors (APE) of the ordinate of peak discharge. On comparison, i

On 6 December 1959, the image of Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru inaugurating the Damodar Valley Corporation dam project in Bihar with a 15-year-old Adivasi girl called Budhini Manjhiyan was flashed across the national newspapers. This was an iconic moment in the national debate around development and change which was to dominate modern India on whether lands, predominately rural and tribal, were to be flooded to benefit the nation. Years later, in 2016, when the newspapers caught up with Budhini, she had returned to Jharkhand and was struggling to make ends meet for herself and her chi

Abstract:
Jharkhand was carved out of Bihar, and at the time of separation received an endowment of cheap power, sources of cheap natural resources (e.g. coal), and a large industrial customer base. However, the power sector has been treated as a source of rents through contracts rather than a source of political support, with successive unstable and short term governments following an extractive rather than developmental approach. Moreover, the industrial customer base was tied to private utilities and the Damodar Valley Corporation (a Government of Indian undertaking) and therefore was not available a
