  • CHALLENGES in EFFICIENT WATER MANAGEMENT in DAMODAR RIVER VALLEY - ROLE of DVC 1 2 Dipankar Chaudhuri ; Satyabrata Banerjee
    CHALLENGES IN EFFICIENT WATER MANAGEMENT IN DAMODAR RIVER VALLEY - ROLE OF DVC 1 2 Dipankar Chaudhuri ; Satyabrata Banerjee Abstract The Damodar River Valley has an extensive history of developmental and planning activities since 1863. DVC was formed in the year 1948 by the act of Parliament to carry out the responsibilities for monitoring and developing this large watershed in an integrated manner. It is well aware that all the projects, planned originally could not be implemented till date by the DVC and the participatory states. Again, silt depositions in the existing reservoirs and channels due to erosions at the upper valley have reduced their respective storage and flowing capacities remarkably. On the other hand, demand of water has been increased many folds within the valley due to growth of industries, population etc. With passing of time, socio- economic and political condition of the valley has also changed a lot. So, considering the different constraints, DVC is trying to manage all its statutory obligations with its limitations. Performances of the operations in the different fields of activities like flood moderation, irrigation, municipal and irrigation water supply, Hydropower etc. have been studied elaborately in this article. Lots of new commendable initiatives to restore the lost-capacities and to increase the storage facilities have also been discussed. A Master Plan of the ecofriendly sustainable developmental activities of the valley in the different projected scenarios has already been prepared by DVC which has also been described in brief. Some scopes have been identified to take up a few new small Hydro schemes at different locations in the upper valley.

    ISSN (e): 2250 – 3005 || Volume, 09 || Issue, 5 || May– 2019 || International Journal of Computational Engineering Research (IJCER) Identification of River Migration Using Geospatial Data: A Case Study of The Lower Part of River Ajay Near Katwa Town Dr.TuhinRoy1 ,Sourav Misra2 1Assistant Professor, Department of Geography, Sarojini Naidu College for Women 30, Jessore Road, Dumdum, Kolkata-700028 2UGC NET & WB SET, Teacher, Shibloon ACM High School, Purba Bardhaman-713140 Corresponding Author: Dr.Tuhinroy ABSTRACT River migration is important and significant geomorphological processes that are involved with lateral movement of both sides of the river and it migrates throughout the entire floodplain. Ajay is one of the most important non-perennial rivers that involves with migration of bank especially Lower part which is very close Katwa Town. At present context, River Ajoy has drastically eroded the sideward portion and through this process river width of Ajoy is gradually increased day by day. Due to the study of River migration, the morphometrical patterns are also identified. For this study, 1927 PS Map, 1968 Topographical Sheet, 1990 Landsat TM, and 2016 Resourcesat LISS-III satellite images are used. All maps are deeply analyzed and calculated to find out the river width and the river bank erosion. Geospatial data is analyzed with the help of ArcGIS Software. By this analysis, we have found the nature of erosion which is mainly highlighted on the confluence point of the river and human activates are also affected due to the changing behavior of this river. KEYWORDS: Bankline Erosion, Channel Shifting, Confluence Point, Floodplain, Geospatial data, Thalweg point Thematic Map, Sand Mining.
