Produktbeschreibung
Kachchh is the second largest district of India with the area of; 45, 612 sq. km. It is located at the western extremes of India with the District headquarter at Bhuj, a small historical town situated most in the middle of the district and Surrounded from two sides by the hill ranges. Kachchh owns the unique saline and desolate land of no vegetation with the total area of 23,310 sq. km known as Rann. The district has 9 Talukas which covers 23.27% area of whole state of Gujarat, while it contributes only 3.03% of population of the state with just 12.5 lakh people. Kachchh is known for its exceeding cattle population of the humans for simple reason that it has a vast grass land of Banni, Coastal plains and alluvial tracts of rocky highland. Industrialization in the last decade has adversely affected the coastal topography and marine dry land ecosystem of Kachchh. Khari and Rukhmavati river basin is a river which is flowing transversely to the KHF and flowing in the hinge zone of Median high of Kachchh. By morphometric analysis of both the river basin we can conclude that the basin is tectonically controlled basin. Deep gorges in both the basin indicate Neotectonic activity.
