The purpose of industrial visit for students is to provide technical knowledge with the technological development in the industry and to understand the gap between the theoretical and practical knowledge that could be passed in future. This experience can help students to provided information regarding functioning of various industries and associated problems and limitations. Interfacing with the industry also provide a chance to build networks and hone their communication skills. Moreover, the participating organizations also gain by getting refined students from the respective institute which could also help in improving their economy. 1. HISTORY The plan for harnessing the river for irrigation and power generation in the Narmada basin was initiated in 1946. Seven projects including the Bharuch project were identified during the initial Survey and 4 projects Bharuch (Gujarat), Bargi, Tawa and Punasa in Madhya Pradesh were given top priority for investigation. After the completion of investigation, the proposed dam at Gora in Gujarat with the full reservoir level (FRL) 161 ft (49.08m) was selected and the foundation stone was laid by late Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru on 5th April, 1961. However as more detailed, modernised contour sheets from the Survey of India were available thereafter, possibility of raising the height of the dam for optimum utilisation of water was considered. In 1964, to resolve the dispute about sharing of the Narmada Waters between the Governments of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh, the Government of India appointed an expert committee under the Chairmanship of late Dr. Khosla which recommended a higher dam with FRL 500 ft (152.44m) in 1965. However, Govt. of M.P. was not agreeable to development of Narmada water as per Khosla Committee report and hence the Narmada Water Dispute Tribunal (NWDT) was constituted by the Government of India in October 1969, under the Inter State River Water Disputes Act, 1956. NWDT gave its final award in December 1979. 2. BENEFITS OF PROJECT a) Irrigation The Sardar Sarovar Project will provide irrigation facilities to 18.45 lac ha. of land, covering 3112 villages of 73 talukas in 15 districts of Gujarat. It will also irrigate 2,46,000 ha. of land in the strategic desert districts of Barmer and Jallore in Rajasthan and 37,500 ha. in the tribal hilly tract of Maharashtra through lift. About 75% of the command area in Gujarat is drought prone while entire command in Rajasthan is drought prone. Assured water supply will soon make this area drought proof. b) Drinking water supply A special allocation of 0.86 MAF of water has been made to provide drinking water to 131 urban centres and 9633 villages (53% of total 18144 villages of Gujarat) within and out-side command in Gujarat for present population of 28 million and prospective population of over 40 million by the year 2021. All the villages and urban centres of arid region of Saurashtra and Kachchh and all "no source" villages and the villages affected by salinity and fluoride in North Gujarat will be benefited. Water supply requirement of several industries will also be met from the project giving a boost to all-round production c) Power There are two power houses viz. River Bed Power House and Canal Head Power House with an installed capacity of 1200 MW and 250 MW respectively. The power would be shared by three states - Madhya Pradesh - 57%, Maharashtra - 27% and Gujarat 16%. This will provide a useful peaking power to western grid of the country which has very limited hydel power production at present. A series of micro hydel power stations are also planned on the branch canals where convenient falls are available. d) Flood Protection It will also provide flood protection to riverine reaches measuring 30,000 ha. covering 210 villages and Bharuch city and a population of 4.0 lac in Gujarat. e) Wild Life Wild life sanctuaries viz. "Shoolpaneshewar wild life sanctuary" on left Bank, Wild Ass Sanctuary in little Rann of Kachchh, Black Buck National Park at Velavadar, Great Indian Bustard Sanctuary in Kachchh, Nal Sarovar Bird Sanctuary and Alia Bet at the mouth of River will be benefited. f) Additional Production SSP would generate electricity. On completion, annual additional agricultural production would be Rs. 1600 crores, power generation and water supply Rs. 175 crores, aggregating about Rs. 2175 crores every year equivalent to about Rs. 6.0 crores a day. g) Against one tribal displaced, 7 tribals would get benefits In addition, there will be benefits of fisheries development, recreational facilities, water supply for industries, agro industrial development, protection of conserved forest from grazers and secondary benefits viz employment generation, increase in vegetal cover in 3.4 M. Ham. of GCA, gains due to compensatory forest, tree plantation 100 times and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) fixation to large extent by 70 times. h) Other Benefits Marginal farmers (< 1 ha.) 28.0 Small farmers (1 to 2 ha.) 24.4% Scheduled Tribe 8.7% Scheduled Caste 9.1% 3. COMPONENTS OF PROJECT a) Sardar Sarovar Reservoir The Full Reservoir Level (FRL) of the Sardar Sarovar Dam is fixed at RL 138.68 metres (455 feet). The Maximum Water Level is 140.21 metres (460 feet.) while minimum draw down level is 110.64 metres (363 feet.). The normal tail water level is 25.91 metres (85 feet.). The gross storage capacity of the reservoir is 0.95 M. ha.m. (7.7 MAF) while live storage capacity is 0.58 M.ha.m. (4.75 MAF). The dead storage capacity below minimum draw down level is 0.37 M. ha. m. (2.97 MAF). The reservoir would occupy an area of 37,000 ha. and would have a linear stretch of 214 kilometer of water and an average width of 1.77 kilometer. The submergence at Full Reservoir LCanal Head Power Houseevel (FRL) is 37,690 ha. (86,088 acres), which comprises 11,279 ha. agricultural land, 13,542 ha. forests and 12,869 ha. river bed and waste land. In all 245 villages of the three states viz. 193 Villages of Madhya Pradesh, 33 villages of Maharashtra and 19 villages of Gujarat are affected. Only 3 villages of Gujarat are fully affected, while the remaining 16 villages are partly affected. In Madhya Pradesh, out of 193 villages, more than 10% agricultural land will be submerged only in 79 villages, in 89 villages less than 10% agricultural land or only houses will be submerged under FRL, due to back water of 1 in 100 years flood. In 25 villages, only Government waste land will be submerged. b) Sardar Sarovar Dam A concrete gravity dam, 1210 meters (3970 feet) in length and with a maximum height of 163 meters above the deepest foundation level, is under construction across river Narmada. The dam will be the third highest concrete dam (163 meters) in India, the first two being Bhakra (226 metres) in Himachal Pradesh and Lakhwar (192 meters) in Uttar Pradesh. In terms of the volume of concrete involved for gravity dams, this dam will be ranking as the second largest in the world with an aggregate volume of 6.82 million cu.m. The first is Grand Coule Dam in USA with a total volume of 8.0 million cu.m. This dam with its spillway discharging capacity of 85,000 cumecs (30.00 lac), will be the third in the world, Gazenba (1.13 lac cumecs) in China and Tucurri (1.0 lac cumecs) in Brazil being the first two. For chute spillway Radial gates, 7 in number and size 60' x 60' and for service spillway, 23 Radial gates of size 60' x 55' are to be provided to negotiate the design flood. 10 number of temporary construction sluices, each of size 2.15 m x 2.75 m. are provided in the boby of the spillway at RL 18 m. Another set of 4 permanent river sluices are provided at RL 53.0 m. The lower sluices were closed in February, 1994. The design of the dam allows for a horizontal seismic coefficient of 0.125g and it also covers an additional risk due to reservoir induced seism city. Most sophisticated seismological instruments for monitoring and evaluation of the stresses in the body of the dam as well as the effect on the periphery of the reservoir are under installation. c) Hydro Power I. River Bed Power House The RBPH is an under ground power house stationed on the right bank of the river located about 165 meters downstream of the dam. It has six number of Francis type reversible turbine generators each of 200 MW installed capacity.

  • A Case Study of Gujarat State, India Dr
    The role of water technology in development: a case study of Gujarat State, India Dr. Rajiv Kumar Gupta, IAS, Government of Gujarat, Republic of India Type of tool: technology Location: Gujarat State, India Introduction This article traces the historical water problem in Gujarat both for drinking and irrigation that affected the development of the State, caused regional imbalances and increased incidence of rural poverty. Technological initiatives like the State Wide Water Grid, Micro Water Harvesting, Inter-Basin Transfer of Water and Power Sector Reforms have changed the entire water scenario in the State. There has been a great deal of emphasis on peoples’ participation in water governance as well. Water challenges in Gujarat Gujarat has just 2.28% of India’s water resources and 6.39% of country’s geographical area. This is again constrained by imbalances in intra-state distribution. The State has an average annual rainfall of 80 cm with a high coefficient of variance over time and space and as a result droughts have been frequent. Out of 185 rivers, the State has only eight perennial rivers and all of them are located in southern part. Around 80% of the State’s surface water resources are concentrated in central and southern Gujarat, whereas the remaining three-quarters of the State has only 20%. On average, three years in a cycle of 10 years have been drought years. Since Indian independence in 1947, the drought years of Gujarat have been as follows: 1951, 1952, 1955, 1956, 1957, 1962, 1963, 1965, 1968, 1969, 1972, 1974, 1980, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1991, 1999, 2000 and 2003 (Gupta, 2004).

During this period, the TISS developed baseline data on social, demographic, economic, cultural and environmental aspects of individuals, families and communities in 33 villages in Akkalkuwa and Akrani tehsils of Dhule (now Nandurbar) district, and tracked changes in the habitat and life conditions of people shifted from Manibeli, Dhankhedi, and Chimalkhedi villages to Parveta (one of the earliest resettlement sites in Gujarat). While TISS moved out of its monitoring and evaluation role in 1994, it continued to track the progress made on various aspects of the SSP. Dam height has been steadily increasing and reached 121.92 m in October 2006; the final and pending phase of installing radial gates will take the dam height to 138.68 m.

  • 1 India's Sardar Sarovar Project
    India’s Sardar Sarovar Project (SSP) (Unpublished 2003 T.Scudder Manuscript) Introduction During the 1980s, my major river basin fieldwork aside from Kariba concerned India’s Sardar Sarovar (SSP) and China’s Three Gorges Projects. Along with the binational Lesotho Highlands Water Project where I began annual visits in 1989, and the Accelerated Mahaweli Project, these projects are among the largest undergoing construction during the initial years of the 21st century. As with the Aswan High Dam, my assessment will emphasize resettlement aspects, but with one major difference. In the High Dam case, a credible and relatively successful resettlement process was completed. In the Sardar Sarovar case, the refusal of the project authorities at the central and state levels to plan and execute even a minimal resettlement program has become the main constraint to project implementation as well as the focal point at the national and international levels for a globally relevant dialogue on opposing development paradigms. As initially planned the key feature of SSP was to be a 138 meter high dam across the Narmada River in eastern Gujarat that is to provide irrigation water for 1.8 million hectares and have hydropower installed capacity of 1,450 megawatts. How what the Indians refer to as Resettlement and Rehabilitation 1 was to be carried out was stipulated by the 1979 report of the Narmada Water Disputes Tribunal (the Tribunal). Because the project authorities have ignored the Tribunal’s provisions from the start, opposition began to build up in the early and mid 1980s. Several NGOs were involved. Initially their main concern was to improve the resettlement process according to the Tribunal and the guidelines of the World Bank.

Anklesaria Aiyar and Neeraj Kaushal NBER Working Paper No. 24423 March 2018 JEL No. H1,H13,H75,I0 ABSTRACT The Sardar Sarovar Dam in Gujarat is arguably the most controversial dam ever built in India, with over a 100,000 displaced people. Most ousted families in Gujarat were resettled in the late 1980s and early 1990s. All oustees were tribals—a term used in India to cover a list of tribes viewed as so backward and historically oppressed that the Indian Constitution in 1950 reserved a quota of seats in education, government jobs, and Parliamentary seats for them.

  • The Sardar Sarovar Dam Project: Selected Documents Level
    Chapter 1 The Sardar Sarovar Dam Project: An Overview Philippe Cullet The Sardar Sarovar Project (SSP) is part of a gigantic scheme seeking to build more than 3,000 dams, including 30 big dams, on the river Narmada, a 1,312 km river flowing westwards from Amarkantak in Madhya Pradesh, touching Maharashtra and ending its course in Gujarat. The SSP is a multi-purpose dam and canal system whose primary rationale is to provide irrigation and drinking water. Power generation is another expected benefit. It is the second biggest of the proposed dams on the Narmada, and its canal network is projected to be the largest in the world. The dam is situated in the state of Gujarat, which will derive most of the benefits of the project, but the submergence – 37,533 hectares in total – is primarily affecting the state of MP (55 per cent) and to a much lesser extent the state of Maharashtra. The SSP has been one of the most debated development projects of the past several decades in India and at the international level. It is only one of many similar big projects in the Narmada valley and in India generally but it has acquired a symbolic status in development debates. This is due in part to the complexity of such multi-purpose projects and the multiple positive and negative impacts associated with big dams. This is also due to the specificities of this project, which was first proposed nearly 60 years ago. Firstly, the fact that this project involves four states – Gujarat, MP, Maharashtra and Rajasthan – with the state of Gujarat receiving most of the benefits of the project has repeatedly led to disagreements among the concerned states.
