Posted by EXAMS CORNER in Current Affairs, General Knowledge, TNPSC, UPSC.

India’s “high power” communication satellite GSAT-30, aimed at providing high-quality television, telecommunications and broadcasting services, was successfully launched onboard European Ariane 5 rocket from French Guiana (an overseas French region in South America) today 17, January 2020. GSAT-30 will serve as a replacement for INSAT-4A

The high-throughput 3,357-kg satellite will provide telecommunication services to remote areas and the islands in India. It will service Direct-To-Home (DTH), television uplink, Digital Satellite News Gathering (DSNG) and cellular connectivity. The payload design has been improved to maximise the number of transponders on the satellite body. This will provide improved coverage and will enable Indian broadcasters to air content in the Middle East, Australia and other parts of Asia.

The satellite was launched along with the European Space Company’s telecommunication satellite – Eutelsat Konnect.

The Northern Great Plains of India

 The Northern Great Plains

The great plains lie between the mountains of the north and the peninsular plateau of the south. It extends over a length of 2400 km. It has a width of 2400 km in Bihar to 500 km in Punjab.

 The Great Plains is a flat low lying land made up of Alluvium – the fine silt brought down by the rivers. The plain in the past was a huge depression where the rivers have deposited layers of alluvial sediments. The three big rivers draining this region are Indus, Ganga and Brahmaputra. They collect their water from Himalayan glaciers. The rivers cross the lofty Himalayan range through narrow deep gorges or deep canyons and enter the plains. Geologists consider that these three rivers were older than the Himalayas that as the Himalayas lifted themselves up, the rivers have eroded their valleys. The northern plains are the youngest as they are made up of sediments laid down by the denudation of the Himalayas. The surface relief of Great Plains are classified into four types based on the structure of soil.

  • The Bhabar lies all along the foot hills of siwalik. It is a pebble – studded zone of porous beds. It is a narrow belt with 8 to 16 kms.
  • The Terai belt is marked by excessive dampness with the growth of thick forest and a variety of wild life.
  • The Bhangar is the older alluvium of the plain.
  • The Khadar is the new alluvium of the plain. They form a continuous belt of alluvium. These plains may be subdivided into the following basins. i) The Indus basin ii) The Ganga basin iii) The Brahmaputra basin iv) The Ganga – Brahmaputra Delta.
