THE Ramagundam and Singareni coil
belt will be the focus of an environmental study to be carried out with the
help of IRS-1C, India's third remote sensing satellite, to draw up an eco-development programme Loi the area.
Rarnagundam is one of the hottest spots
in southern India where the mercury
soars up to 50oC in peak summer.
The thermal station and coal mines in
the region have contributed to the hot
conditions. The eco-study will be carried out by the National Remote Sensing
Agency and the 2100 MW thermal station of the National Thermal Power
Corpotation in Ramagundam. The corporation will take largescale afforestation and other eco-friendly measures to
bring down the temperature of the
region.
