Title: Analysing the Impacts of Rural Tourism on Architectural and Cultural Heritage in the Indian Context. Authors: Shermin, Farha Shermin Abstract: Tourism in India is growing at a very fast rate. The World Travel and Tourism Council forecasts Indian tourism sector to grow at annual average growth rate of 7 per cent over the next ten years. It is indeed conceived as a powerful means of attracting the foreign exchange and is an easy resource of boosting the national economy. Tourism brings in investments, creates jobs, and promotes sales of crafts, local arts etc. Due to this it has been observed that the architectural and cultural heritage, including the natural resources have all been exploited in promoting tourism. Such an approach reduces the architectural and cultural heritage to a mere economic commodity, which minimizes or sometimes completely ignores its social, cultural, historic, environmental as well as architectural values. The research paper attempts to understand the impacts of rural tourism on the architectural and cultural aspects of the rural Indian communities as it is practiced tourism. This has been achieved through documentation, analysis and thorough research of two cases from the North East of India: Sualkuchi, which is a historic weavers settlement in Assam, well known for the production of Assam silk and the second is Mawlynnong in Meghalaya, which has recently been designated as the cleanest village in Asia, both being recent favorites of national and international tourists.

Title: River Restoration: A Study of River Musi and Analysis on Influence of Urbanisation Authors: Manusanipalli, Priyanka Abstract: Water is a very essential element in formation of any livelihood. When we take a close look at the source of water in the present scenario, most of the rivers bear sewage water and thousands of water bodies have already extinguished. One such example is The River Musi, which is a tributary of Krishna River in the Deccan city, Hyderabad and divides old city from new city. In 16th century (Kakatiya Dynasty) the city expanded along the banks of the river, but over a period of time due to urbanisation the city started expanding towards North because the land usage was restricted by the Cantonment area towards West and also found more potential when Hussain Sagar (Manmade Lake) was built as a perennial catchment area. lics of the river and the course of the bank responded differently at every part of the stream at various levels. When we look at the form of the channel and stream, it is quite evident how a 33 km stretch with in the city limits changes its dynamics at every stage. Human habitat and and surroundings. The disposal of industrial waste and sewage has a large impact on polluting the river. For example a coconut tree growing next to a healthy water body would yield a better quality of coconuts because of the good quality of water table. Whereas a coconut tree growing next to polluted water body would yield coconut water with high levels of Lead quantity because of an unhealthy water table. healthy drinking river water transform into a carrier of sewage waste and how it could be restored with the help of strategical design techniques and proposal of policies to uplift the present condition of the river.
