selling and charcoal manufacturing become alternative sources of income Owing to frequent crop failure and

absence of other sources of livelihood the income levels recorded in the villages is quite low In Melaselvanur

village the average annual income is Rs 36000 while in other villages it ranged between Rs 25000-30000 As

selling and charcoal manufacturing become alternative sources of income Owing to frequent crop failure and

absence of other sources of livelihood the income levels recorded in the villages is quite low In Melaselvanur

village the average annual income is Rs 36000 while in other villages it ranged between Rs 25000-30000 As

selling and charcoal manufacturing become alternative sources of income Owing to frequent crop failure and

absence of other sources of livelihood the income levels recorded in the villages is quite low In Melaselvanur

village the average annual income is Rs 36000 while in other villages it ranged between Rs 25000-30000 As

AND WHEREAS Melaselvanoor Keelaselvanoor and Orivayal the three villages surrounding the

notified area have population of men 2817 and 3038 women respectively with the total of 5855 Most of the

people depend upon Rain fed agriculture while the rest earn their livelihood as daily wage labourers The

villagers belong to Pallan Agamudiyar Yathaver Asari Vannan and Muslim communities The ethnic

identity is thus varied tradition and customs are also varying accordingly There is no major rift between

communities and they mostly live in harmony with existing socio-political scenario

AND WHEREAS agriculture and allied activities such as live stock rearing poultry are the major

sources of economy for the people living in the proposed Eco sensitive zone Brick making and charcoal

making also contribute to their livelihood Though the primary source of income in villages around the

sanctuary is agriculture due to lack of rain often the crops fail As a result cattle rearing firewood cutting and

selling and charcoal manufacturing become alternative sources of income Owing to frequent crop failure and

absence of other sources of livelihood the income levels recorded in the villages is quite low In Melaselvanur

village the average annual income is Rs 36000 while in other villages it ranged between Rs 25000-30000 As

a consequence majority of the villagers are below poverty line

Now Therefore in exercise of the power conferred by sub-section(1) and clauses (v) and (xiv) of sub-

section (2) and sub-section (3) of section 3 of the Environment (Protection) Act 1986 (29 of 1986) read with

the sanctuary for bird watching is November-January when bird population and species diversity is at the

highest

AND WHEREAS the sanctuary is basically an irrigation tank that is used for storing water for

agriculture recharged by the northeast monsoons from October till January The tank remains completely dry

from March to August As the sanctuary is basically an irrigation tank there is no natural forest within the

sanctuary Babul (Acacia nilotica) plantations were raised by the Forest Department The sanctuary being a

AND WHEREAS Melaselvanoor Keelaselvanoor and Orivayal the three villages surrounding the

notified area have population of men 2817 and 3038 women respectively with the total of 5855 Most of the

people depend upon Rain fed agriculture while the rest earn their livelihood as daily wage labourers The

villagers belong to Pallan Agamudiyar Yathaver Asari Vannan and Muslim communities The ethnic

identity is thus varied tradition and customs are also varying accordingly There is no major rift between

communities and they mostly live in harmony with existing socio-political scenario

AND WHEREAS agriculture and allied activities such as live stock rearing poultry are the major

sources of economy for the people living in the proposed Eco sensitive zone Brick making and charcoal

making also contribute to their livelihood Though the primary source of income in villages around the

sanctuary is agriculture due to lack of rain often the crops fail As a result cattle rearing firewood cutting and

selling and charcoal manufacturing become alternative sources of income Owing to frequent crop failure and

absence of other sources of livelihood the income levels recorded in the villages is quite low In Melaselvanur

village the average annual income is Rs 36000 while in other villages it ranged between Rs 25000-30000 As

a consequence majority of the villagers are below poverty line

Now Therefore in exercise of the power conferred by sub-section(1) and clauses (v) and (xiv) of sub-

AND WHEREAS rare and threatened species has been recorded in the sanctuary Examples of rare

species are Great Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) Purple Heron (Ardea cinerea) Yellow Bittern

(Lxobrychus sinensis) Chestnut Bittrem (Lxobrychus cinnamomeus) Black Bittern (Dupetor flavicollis)

Comb Duck (Sarkidiornis melanotos) Northern Shoveller (Anas clypeata) Common Teal (Abas crecca)

AND WHEREAS Melaselvanoor Keelaselvanoor and Orivayal the three villages surrounding the

notified area have population of men 2817 and 3038 women respectively with the total of 5855 Most of the

people depend upon Rain fed agriculture while the rest earn their livelihood as daily wage labourers The

villagers belong to Pallan Agamudiyar Yathaver Asari Vannan and Muslim communities The ethnic

identity is thus varied tradition and customs are also varying accordingly There is no major rift between

communities and they mostly live in harmony with existing socio-political scenario

AND WHEREAS agriculture and allied activities such as live stock rearing poultry are the major

sources of economy for the people living in the proposed Eco sensitive zone Brick making and charcoal

making also contribute to their livelihood Though the primary source of income in villages around the

sanctuary is agriculture due to lack of rain often the crops fail As a result cattle rearing firewood cutting and

selling and charcoal manufacturing become alternative sources of income Owing to frequent crop failure and

absence of other sources of livelihood the income levels recorded in the villages is quite low In Melaselvanur

village the average annual income is Rs 36000 while in other villages it ranged between Rs 25000-30000 As

a consequence majority of the villagers are below poverty line

Now Therefore in exercise of the power conferred by sub-section(1) and clauses (v) and (xiv) of sub-

section (2) and sub-section (3) of section 3 of the Environment (Protection) Act 1986 (29 of 1986) read with

Envisaging successful management measures will attract more breeding species and wintering species to

enhance the diversity which in turn will attract more tourists birdwatchers and students The best time to visit

the sanctuary for bird watching is November-January when bird population and species diversity is at the

highest

AND WHEREAS the sanctuary is basically an irrigation tank that is used for storing water for

agriculture recharged by the northeast monsoons from October till January The tank remains completely dry

sanctuary Babul (Acacia nilotica) plantations were raised by the Forest Department The sanctuary being a

irrigation tank has very less faunal species (except Avifauna) which include Indian Grey Mongoose

people depend upon Rain fed agriculture while the rest earn their livelihood as daily wage labourers The

villagers belong to Pallan Agamudiyar Yathaver Asari Vannan and Muslim communities The ethnic

identity is thus varied tradition and customs are also varying accordingly There is no major rift between

communities and they mostly live in harmony with existing socio-political scenario

AND WHEREAS agriculture and allied activities such as live stock rearing poultry are the major

sources of economy for the people living in the proposed Eco sensitive zone Brick making and charcoal

making also contribute to their livelihood Though the primary source of income in villages around the

sanctuary is agriculture due to lack of rain often the crops fail As a result cattle rearing firewood cutting and

selling and charcoal manufacturing become alternative sources of income Owing to frequent crop failure and

absence of other sources of livelihood the income levels recorded in the villages is quite low In Melaselvanur
