The capital of the state of Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad is the fifth largest city in
India with an ancient civilization and culture. Attached to the city is its twin ,
Secunderbad, which is part of Hyderabad. The twin cities of Hyderabad and
Secunderbad are separated by the Husain Sagar, an artificial lake constr- ucted
during the time of Ibrahim Quli Qutb Shah Wali in 1562 A.D.
The city is nearly 400 years old and is noted for its natural beauty, mosques and
minarets, bazaars and bridges, hills and lakes. It is perched on the top of the
Deccan Plateau, 1776ft., above sea level, and sprawls over an area of 100 Sq.
miles. A multitude of influences have shaped the character of the city. Its palaces
and buildings, houses and tenements, gardens and streets have a history and an
architectural individuality of their own, which makes Hyderabad a city of
enchantment.
Hyderabad was founded on the River Musi five miles east of Golconda, in 1591-92
by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah. In the 16th century the city grew spontaneously to
accommodate the surplus population of Golconda, which was the capital of the
Qutb Shahi rulers. Many buildings sprang up along the River Musi. Gradually the
city grew.

The Qutb Shahi dynasty founded the Kingdom of Golconda, one of the five
kingdoms that emerged after the break up of the Bahamani Kingdom. The Qutb
Shahis ruled the Deccan for almost 171 years. All the seven rulers were patrons of
learning and were great builders. They contributed to the growth and development
of Indo-Persian and Indo-Islamic literature and culture in Hyderabad.
During the Qutb Shahi reign Golconda became one of the leading markets in the
world of diamonds, pearls, steel for arms, and also printed fabric. Asif Jah I
continued to maintain Aruangabad, which had been founded by the Mughal rulers
as the capital of his new state. In 1769, Nizam Ali Khan Asif Jah II, shifted the
capital to Hyderabad.
The seven Nizam's of the Asif Jahi dynasty ruled the Deccan for nearly 224 years,
right up to 1948.During the Asif Jahi period, Persian, Urdu, Telgu and Marathi
developed simultaneously. The highest official positions were given to deserving
persons irrespective of their religion. Persian was the official language up to 1893
and then Urdu up to 1948.
The glory of the Golconda kingdom ended in 1687, after a valiant struggle.

Aurangzeb, the last great Mughal ruler, captured Golconda after a siege that lasted
eight months. Abul Hasan Tana Shah, the last king of Golconda, was imprisoned at
Daulatabad, where he died after twelve years in captivity.With the conquest of the
Deccan and the South, Aurangzeb succeeded in expanding the Mughal Empire to
cover the entire sub-continent. However, after his death in 1707, the Empire rapidly
declined.
At that time , the Deccan was administered by a Subedar or viceroy of the Mughal
Emperor. Mir Quamaruddin, the Governor of the Deccan, who bore the title of
Nizam-ul-Mulk Feroze Jung Asif Jah, declared his independence from Mughal rule
in 1724. He thus became the first Nizam and the founder of the Asif Jahi dynasty.
When the British and the French spread their hold over the country, the Nizam soon
won their friendship without bequeathing his power. The title "Faithful. Ally of the
British Government" was bestowed on Nizam VII. The British stationed a Resident
at Hyderabad, but the state continued to be ruled by the Nizam.
The rule of the seven Nizam's saw the growth of Hyderabad both culturally and
economically. Huge reservoirs, like the Nizam Sagar, Tungabadra, Osman Sagar,
Himayath Sagar, and others were built. Survey work on Nagarjuna Sagar had also

begun during this time.
Hyderabad, under the Nizam's, was the largest princely state in India. Area wise it
was as big as England and Scotland put together. The State had its own currency,
mint, railways, and postal system. There was no income tax.
Soon after India gained independence, Hyderabad State merged with the Union of
India. On November 1, 1956 the map of India was redrawn into linguistic states,
and Hyderabad became the capital of Andhra Pradesh.

Shopping
Hyderabad has been a major trading centre for centuries. It has been influenced by
cultures from all directions - largely because both of India's coastlines were
controlled by its former rulers. The city offers just about anything you are looking for
- antiques, jewellery, handicrafts, dresses - traditional and modern - leather goods,
pearls and semi precious stones, and a dizzying array of perfumes.
The main commercial areas are open Monday through Saturday except in the
Charminar area, where some shops remain closed on Fridays. Street-side bazaar
are open on Sundays as well. The Abids Road becomes a paradise or book lovers
on Sundays. The lucky shopper may find a rare old book or a collector's issue of a
magazine selling on the street at a throwaway price. Bargaining is a must on the
street - a safe margin to ask for is 10-15% off the stated price.
Commerce in Hyderabad begins relatively late; some shops open only at 1030 or
1100 hrs and close again for a two-hour lunch break. You must check each item
you buy, for it is difficult to return or exchange merchandise except in the large
stores. In any case, take care to ask for a receipt.

Cuisine
Andhra cuisines has much to write home about. While
Hyderabadi is totally distinct from that available anywhere
else, traditional Andhra meals involve a lot of Chillies,
pickles and like to keep the taste buds literally tingling. The
Biryanis and Kebabs of Hyderabad find no match anywhere
else for their taste while the Avakai and Gongoora Pickles
of Coastal Andhra is notable for its tangy hot taste.
For those who relish non-vegetarian dishes, Andhra
cuisines serves up tongue tingling recipes like the tabgy
"Chapala Pulusu" (Sour and Hot Fish Stew), Flavourful
"Mutton Pulao", delectable prawn and crab "Iguru" perked
with lots of spices. Hyderabadi cuisines offers the
unparalled Dubble Ka Meetha, Qubbani Ka Meetha. Sheer
Khorma, Firni, Shahi Tukre, Gil-e-Firdaus, and a tempting
choice of sweet delicacies to finish your meals, which can
be rich or light as your plate desires.

About SPG
Menu
There had been a growing realisation amongst the geophysical
community that the exchange of technical ideas and practical
experience though important was lacking. With these thoughts in
the background, a group of geophysicists met at the residence of
Mr. M.R.Rao (First President of SPG) and resolved to form a
Geophysical Society with its headquarters at Dehradun.
As a result, the Society of Petroleum Geophysicists, India was born on August 15,
1992, when about 30 Geophysicists met and resolved to form an association, for
improved interaction and technical exchange. The Society was registered with the
Registrar of Societies as a non profit organisation on January 4, 1993.
A competition to design a LOGO for SPG was held on August 15, 1993. The design
finally accepted for the logo depicts an oil drop engraved with SPG. Seven waves
below the drop signify seven sisters of Petroleum Exploration- Geophysics,
Geology, Petrophysics, Geochemistry, Bio-Stratigraphy, Reservoir Engineering, and
Drilling Engineering.

The committee organised a number of short courses, lectures and workshops
which were well received by the geophysical community.
In July 1994, a General Body Meeting of the Society was held when the new
executive headed by A.G.Pramanik took over. Sh B.C.Bora, CMD, ONGC became
the Chief Patron of the Society. A training programme on Seismic Data Processing
by K.G.Gupta et.al. was organised from September 22-25, 1994. The birth of the
regional chapters for Chennai, Jorhat, Mumbai, Ahmedabad and Baroda also took
place in the same year.

About SPG
Menu
As a result of active association of the President A.G.Pramanik and his untiring
efforts, SPG became an affiliate society of SEG, USA in 1995. Subsequently it also
bagged affiliation from EAGE. His vision provoked the Executive to take up a
challenge and organise an International Conference which could bring together
Geoscientists, Policy makers, Academia and Industry.
The First Conference and Exposition on Petroleum Geophysics was held at Hotel
Ashoka, New Delhi from Feb 9-11, 1996. The Executive also decided to hold
International Conference on Petroleum Geophysics bi-annually. Subsequently two
International Conferences were held in Chennai in 1998 and New Delhi in 2000.
The Executive committee of the Society decided upon to have a technical journal of
the society. Sh Roop Chand, Member, Executive Committee proposed the name Geohorizons which was unanimously accepted. Mr Satinder Chopra also an
Executive Member of the Society was nominated as the editor of Geohorizons, the
first issue of which was published in April 1996. Currently Geohorizons is being
published quarterly.

……….. And Robert M.Pirsig said:
"…. Laws of nature are human inventions, like ghosts. Laws of logic are also human inventions, like
ghosts. The whole blessed thing is a human invention, including the idea that it isn't a human invention. The
world has no existence whatsoever outside the human imagination. It's all a ghost, and in antiquity was so
recognised as a ghost, the whole blessed world we live in. It's run by ghosts. We see what we see because
these ghosts show it to us, ghosts of Moses and Christ and the Buddha, and Plato, and Descartes, and
Rousseau and Jefferson and Lincoln, on and on and on. Isaac Newton is a very good ghost. One of the best.
Your common sense is nothing more than the voice of thousands and thousands of these ghosts from the past.
Ghosts and more ghosts. Ghosts trying to find their place among the living. ……."

“............If the purpose of scientific method is to select from among a multitude of hypotheses, and if the number of
hypotheses grows faster than experimental method can handle, then it is clear that all hypotheses can never be tested. If
all hypotheses can't be tested, then the results of any experiment are inconclusive and the entire scientific method falls
short of its goal of establishing proven knowledge. ………"
"…….. What shortens the life span of the existing truth is the volume of hypotheses offered to replace it; the more the
hypotheses shorter the life span of the truth. And what seems to be causing the number of hypotheses to grow in recent
decades seems to be nothing more than scientific method itself. The more you look, the more you see. Instead of selecting
one truth from the multitude you are increasing the multitude. What this means logically is that as you try to move towards
unchanging truth through the application of scientific method, you do not move towards it at all. You move away from it! It is
your application of scientific method that is causing it to change! …….."

Despite the illusion we enjoy that the pace of discovery in accelerating, it is important that , in same
fields of science, many goals appear to be attainable only slowly and by huge collective
efforts……… After a century of seismology, only now are measurements and analytical techniques
sensitive enough to promise that we shall soon have a picture of the interior of the planet on which
we live, one that shows the rising convention plumes of mantle rock that drive the tectonic plates
across the surface of the Earth.
