  • Erai & Zarpat River Action Plan
    ERAI & ZARPAT RIVER ACTION PLAN INTRODUCTION: Erai River is a main tributary of Wardha River in Chandrapur District and Zarpat River is a tributary of Erai River. Total length of Erai River from origin to meeting point at Wardha River is 25 km approx. and length of Zarpat River from its origin to confluence point with Erai River is 15 km approx. Zarpat river flows between the dense populations of Chandrapur City that includes slum area. Zarpat River originated from the natural spring near Lohara village and meets into Erai River near Mana village. Erai River supplies water to Chandrapur city and M/s CSTPS, Chandrapur from Erai Dam and 30 % water supply of Chandrapur City is drawn from Erai River, Datala Road, intake belt. Chandrapur City lifts about 54 MLD water and M/s CSTPS lifts around 304 MLD water from Erai River. In peak summer, sometimes water level at Erai Dam reaches at dead level and water intake for industrial consumption has to restrict by District Authority to ensure water supply for drinking purpose. The water quality of Erai River and Zarpat River is deteriorated due to discharging of domestic sewage from rural and urban population in the vicinity of river basin. These two river become sewer carrying drains of Chandrapur city. ERAI RIVER Origin – Near Kasarbodi / khadsangi, Tal. Chimur, Dist. Chandrapur Total Length – Approx. 78 km (from origin to Erai Dam – 45 Km approx. & from Erai dam to confluence point to Wardha River at Village Hadasti - 33 km approx.)

However, in recent years, while declining HIV trends are evident at the national level as well as in most of the States, some low prevalence and vulnerable States have shown rising trends, warranting focused prevention efforts in specific areas. The National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) is strongly evidence-based and evidence-driven. Based on evidence from ‘Triangulation of Data’ from multiple sources and giving due weightage to vulnerability, the organizational structure of NACP has been decentralized to identified districts for priority attention. The programme has been successful in creating a robust database on HIV/AIDS through the HIV Sentinel Surveillance system, monthly programme reporting data and various research studies.
