Visitors showing interest in the Institute's publications at 83rd Indian Science Congress, PatiaJa. The Institute has lost 3 members-Sri H.N. Boral, Senior Technical Officer, Sri P.S. Salujha, Mechanic and Sri Vishnu Kumar, Chowkidar during the year. On-going Effort's: 1996-97 The year 1996-97 will be the last year of the VIII Five Year Plan. The programmes already identified under different projects will continue. Being the last year of the VUI Plan results of most of the Programmes will be completed and finalized. The investigations on the following aspects will be persued. The biota representing early life from Madhya Pradesh and Kumool basins will be studied and the results on the palacobiological remains recorded from Kaladgi, Cudapah, Bhima and Kumool basins will be finalized. The calcareous algae from Maastrichtian-Danian sequence around Ariyalur, Tiruchirapalli District, Tamil Nadu will be studied. The study of plant fossils from Hura. Chuperbhita Jharia. Karanpura, Bokaro, Auranga, Talcher coalfields. 12
