3. Introduction
Educational tour is a short trip or outgoing to some place,
usually for a special purpose and with the intention of a
prompt return. It's a learning experience outside the class
room. These tour supplement classroom learning by
providing students with an opportunity to see the actual
places, artifacts, flora and fauna or phenomena that are
describe in text book and lectures. Education tour provide
valuable educational opportunities away from the class
room, without using textbooks and other tools use in a
normal class room setting. If the educational tour
destination has staff members who do hands-on teaching
with visiting students, such as at a science center or
research institute the students will be excited to Learn
from some new.

4. Area Of Choice
This year I choose Hyderabad and nearby areas for my educational
tour. Hyderabad is the capital of Andhra Pradesh. Hyderabad is the
city which is famous for pearls. It is a metropolitan city in terms
of infrastructure, diversity and economy. From 1956 to 2014
Hyderabad was the capital of Andhra Pradesh state, but, with the
creation of Telangana from Andhra Pradesh in 2014, it was
redesignated as the capital of both states. Hyderabad is the largest
city and capital of the southern Indian state Telangana. Hyderabad
is located on the banks of the Musi River around artificial lakes. In
2014, the estimated population of Hyderabad is 8.7 million in
2014, which makes it the 4th most populous city in India.
Hyderabad also has many surface water bodies such as lakes
(Hussan Sagar lake etc.),pound, rivers (Musi river etc.) etc. But
most of it is polluted and no further useful in current stage.
Hyderabad is located on the Musi River in the heart of
the Telangana Plateau, a major upland region of
the Deccan (peninsular India). The city site is relatively level to
the gently rolling terrain, at an elevation of about 1,600 feet (500
metres). The climate is warm to hot and monsoonal (i.e., marked
by wet and dry periods), with moderate annual precipitation. Most
rain falls during the wet monsoon months of June to October.
Hyderabad has become a hub of trade and commerce and an
international centre for information technology (IT).
Pharmaceuticals, cigarettes, and textiles are among the items
manufactured there. Service activities have expanded dramatically,
especially those associated with IT, so that they have come
to constitute the lion’s share of the city’s economy. Tourism has
grown in significance.

9. Climatic Condition
 Hyderabad has a tropical wet and dry climate bordering on a
hot semi-arid climate. The annual mean temperature is 26.6 °C
(79.9 °F); monthly mean temperatures are 21–33 °C (70–91 °F).
Summers (March–June) are hot and humid; with average highs in
the mid-to-high 30s Celsius maximum temperatures often exceed
40 °C (104 °F) between April and June. The coolest temperatures
occur in December and January, when the lowest temperature
occasionally dips to 10 °C (50 °F).May is the hottest month,
when daily temperatures range from 26 to 39 °C (79–102 °F);
December, the coldest, has temperatures varying from 14.5 to
28 °C (57–82 °F).
 Heavy rain from the south-west summer monsoon falls between
June and September, supplying Hyderabad with most of its mean
annual rainfall. Since records began in November 1891, the
heaviest rainfall recorded in a 24-hour period was 241.5 mm
(10 in) on 24 August 2000. The highest temperature ever
recorded was 45.5 °C (114 °F) on 2 June 1966, and the lowest
was 6.1 °C (43 °F) on 8 January 1946.The city receives
2,731 hours of sunshine per year; maximum daily sunlight
exposure occurs in February

10. Geography
 Situated in the southern part of Telangana in southeastern India,
Hyderabad is 1,566 kilometres (973 mi) south of Delhi, 699
kilometres (434 mi) southeast of Mumbai, and 570 kilometres
(350 mi) north of Bangalore by road. It lies on the banks of
the Musi River, in the northern part of the Deccan Plateau.
Greater Hyderabad covers 650 km2(250 sq mi), making it one of
the largest metropolitan areas in India. With an average altitude
of 542 metres (1,778 ft), Hyderabad lies on predominantly
sloping terrain of grey and pink granite, dotted with small hills,
the highest being Banjara Hills at 672 metres (2,205 ft).The city
has numerous lakes referred to as sagar, meaning "sea".
Examples include artificial lakes created by dams on the Musi,
such as Hussain Sagar (built in 1562 near the city
centre), Osman Sagar and Himayat Sagar. As of 1996, the city
had 140 lakes and 834 water tanks (ponds)
 Hyderabad city which is spread over an area of 260km2 is
located in Deccan Plateau rises 536 meters above the sea level
at latitude of 17.366' N and a longitude of 78.476' E. The city
boasts of a unique landscape of rock formations that are almost
2.500 years old. The city has red sandy type of soil and falls in
the seismic zone-I which makes the land least exposed to
earthquakes. The highest point in Hyderabad is Banjara Hills
and the contour level gradually falls from west to east which
leads to the creation of a trough near the Musi River that runs
through the city. This feature has facilitated sufficient water
supply to the city.

11. Jhawar Nagar Solid Waste or
Garbage dumping Site
The Jawahar nagar dump yard has turned into an island amid black oily water.
Rainwater seeps into the garbage and collects in pools around the dump yard.
While as per officials the water has been treated and “normalized”, it also may
be contaminating the groundwater. There are three lakes within four km radius
of the dump yard – Dammaiguda Cheruvu, Nachan Cheruvu and Malkaram
Cheruvu – and due to this dumping site all begun turning black. The residents
of Dammaiguda village are forced to rely solely on tap water. The 5,000 tonnes
of waste that the 100-acre dump yard receives every day is largely made up of
garbage that cannot be segregated. This includes food waste in polythene bags
and mixtures of dry and wet waste.
When such waste begins to decompose, the organic content releases fluid,
which after remaining in contact with metals and plastics for a prolonged period
turns into a toxic leachate. An official of the Ramky Group, which is
responsible for the management of the dump yard, said that the release of
leachate is a major concern. It is more difficult to handle than the landfill itself
because it is a cocktail of heavy metals and chemicals. Mr David , an official
from Ramky, saids “It is toxic and it cannot be released into the environment.
However, we treat whatever we can through reverse osmosis and 50 per cent of
the leachate is sent to solar evaporation ponds located adjacent to the site. Toxic
solid chemicals that are left behind is put into a landfill.’’The dumpsite is
surrounded by a number of colonies including Jawaharnagar Gruha, a society
for low-income households which houses over 5000 families. Mr. Mohammad
Gazi, a resident of this society, says, “We see waste burn all day, and we have
to inhale this muck. When it rains, the black water reaches our homes. I regret
buying a home here, but I cannot afford to move now.” GHMC (Greater
Hyderabad Municipal Corporation) recently built a canal to divert water
between lakes located upstream and downstream without passing through
Jawaharnagar.

The Telangana Pollution Control Board is a body of the
Department of Health and Family Welfare, Government of
the State of Telangana, India The board is charged with
enforcing laws related to environmental protection. TSPCB
was constituted under Sec.4 of Water (Prevention & Control
of Pollution) Act,1974 and Section 5 of Air (Prevention &
Control of Pollution) Act,1981, on 07-07-2014. The Board
has the responsibility of implementing a series of
Environmental Acts and Rules:
 Air Act
 Environment Protection Act
 Hazardous Waste Rules
 Bio Medical Waste Rules
 Municipal Solid Waste

14. Environment Protection Training
and Research Institute,
Gachibowli, Hyderabad
 Environment Protection Training and Research Institute (EPTRI)
was set up in 1992 as an independent registered society by the State
Government with assistance from the Government of India. The
State also provided bilateral assistance for technical collaboration
between EPTRI and the Swedish International Development Co-
operation Agency (Sida).
 EPTRI – a state of the art organization is abreast of wide-ranging
concerns regarding environmental conservation and protection from
ozone depletion, climate change, integrated environmental strategies
to clean development mechanisms. It endeavors to create awareness
among communities, civil societies, Government Organizations,
NGOs and other stakeholders. It strives to achieve poverty
alleviation through employment generation, human development
and sustainable environment management.
 EPTRI as a concomitant of environment protection undertakes
various activities covering environmental issues related to
industries, protected areas, biodiversity, urban agglomeration,
environmental awareness, human resource development, capacity
building and research. It serves as a premier agency in advising the
Pollution Control Boards and related organizations in fixing
environmental standards for the industries, in creating awareness
and sensitivity and in the cause of its advocacy. An important
function is sustainability in development and to preserve the
traditions of communities, the flora and fauna of the region and to
document ethno-knowledge and biodiversity.

16. Conclusion
 The State Government of Andhra Pradesh is working
very hard to fight these circumstances but the
Government is lagging in giving awareness, education
and educating the importance of Environment and
resources to the people not only Andhra Pradesh
government but also the Government of India is
failing in same area of providing education and
awareness towards environment. GOVERNMENT OF
INDIA has made many laws and polices, rules and
regulations but it is easy to make laws but in India like
developing countries it is tough to implementation of
that laws.
 So finally a mass participation is required to protect
our natural environment and resources by educating
people about its effects and causes establishment of
strict laws and must be strictly followed to minimize
effect of pollution otherwise the situations may
become uncontrollable.
