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
1995-96 Children participating in a Poster Competition 011 National Science Day-February 28, 1996. Rajmahal and Gangapur beds will be continued to understand the floral change through time. The intricate details of plant fossils. seeds, cuticles_ megaspores, etc. will be studied by electron microscopic teclllliques to trace the taxonomy grouping and affinity with parent plant group. The palynostratigraphical studies and correlation of coal-bearing strata being done on sediments from Rajmahal, Domra-Panagarh, Sohagpur, Pali- Tiki-Parsora basins will be continued. The Himalayan sediments will be analysed for their palynological contents and plant megafossils. The miero- and megafloral studies on Tertiary sediments from Deccan Intertrappean, Ratnagiri, Neyveli, Eastern Coast of south India. Rajasthan and Gujarat, Assam, Meghalaya, West Bengal, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh will be continued for palynostratigraphy and biogeographical interpretations. The phytoplankton studies of marine sediments will be continued 011 Mcghalaya. East Coast and Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The Quatemary sediments from Palni Hills. eastern and Garhwal Himalayas.
