Field evidences in Kachchh show that alkali basalts occur as flows over Mesozoic sediments. The top parts of Mesozoic Bhuj Sandstone often carry scoria and lapilli related to alkali basalt magmatism indicating that alkali magmatism and sedimentation went side by side. Tholente flows occur as blanket over both Mesozoic sediments and alkali basalt bodies.Evidences are provided to show that alkali basalt magmatism in Kachchh was not only an earlier episode than tholente emplacement, it also predates the closing of Kachchh Mesozoic basin and seems to support a protracted period of Deccan magmatism (70 - 60 Ma). The study also shows that huge concentration of alkali basalt in the western Kachchh mainland is associated to a zone of transtension related to the rifting of Kachchh basin. Alkali basalt bodies and whole of Mesozoic sequence were affected by reverse faults related to closure of Kachchh basin with development of series of hanging wall anticlinal and footwall synclinal structures.

The study is a field note to two tribal villages in Chandaka region of Odisha, namely, Bhagabatipur and Firikinali. Both the villages are devoid of adequate electricity facilities. Although there is a grid connection in both the villages, it suffers from various problems that lead to ultimate darkness. The field visit includes pre and post-pilot installation visits under a DST sponsored project. The fundamental aim of the project is to promote large scale deployment of Micro Solar Domes (MSD) for renewable energy application and social empowerment of rural SC and ST communities through integrated techno-social interventions for addressing energy-poverty holistically. The villagers of Bhagabatipur have benefitted immensely from MSD, and many villagers are interested in installing it for a better lifestyle.Keywords
