A large number of rich monuments in the city untold the medieval period. The place is a great attraction not only to scholarly but in a very large measure to the tourists from all parts of the world. Thus Agra has developed in to one of the most important tourist centres of the country. The Taj Mahal is the focal point which is daily visited by several thousand people from all walks of life from the whole world. The idea of beautifying the surroundings of the Taj is under consideration from a long time. Water front is always fascinating. Hence, there has been a proposal to create a lake by constructing a low height rubber dam on river Yamuna, 1.5 km down stream of Tajmahal. Construction of Rubber dam for the creation of water front at Taj is essential to restore the beauty of Taj as it was in ancient Mughal Period. The construction of Rubber dam at 1.5Km downstream of rubber dam will not only improve the Taj Mahal area from aesthetic point of view but will also facilitate the navigation on National waterway no 110. After the construction of Rubber Dam, the environment of nearby area will improve significantly. The ground water level is also likely to go up. Due to ponding acquaintance will develop and the humidity of the atmosphere is expected to increase, which will decrease the dryness and hotness of atmosphere resulting in major improvement of Taj Trapezium area. The main object of this project is to create storage of water at all the time in Dry River upto the level of 146.00 m , Improvement of the ground water level in Agra, valued or non-valued navigation through river routes reducing the pressure on other mode of transport. 1.2 BACKGROUND The river Yamuna originates from Yamunotri Glacier in the lower Himalayas. The river with its total flow length of 1376 km, travels through number of historical, religious and big cities like Saharanpur, Delhi, Vrindavan, Mathura, Agra, Kanpur, Hamirpur and merges into river Ganga at Allahabad. The Agra city situated on the right bank of river Yamuna, is on the most important tourist and pilgrimage centre of the country and have a large number of monuments in the catchment down stream of Okhla Barrage. All the water available in Yamuna River is diverted into the canal from Hathnikund Barrage at U.P. border. From downstream of Hathnikund Barrage, water released to Okhla Barrage i.e. diverted in Agra Canal for irrigation purpose of Haryana, U.P. and for B.T.P.S/NTPC Delhi/ Faridabad and specified quantity of water release in downstream of Yamuna river for Gokul Page Irrigation and Water Resource Department, Uttar Pradesh PRE-FEASIBILITY REPORT Barrage at Mathura, which is supplied as drinking water Mathura city. Resulting is that, from downstream of Gokul Barrage to downstream of Taj Mahal, the general hydrology shows that during lean period river has low discharge as practically NIL to few thousands cusecs at different locations and in monsoon period. In monsoon water varies from 1.00 lac to 3.50 lacs cusecs, it reveals that the river carries inadequate discharge during monsoon from July to October months. Hence there has been a proposal to create a lake by constructing a low height Rubber dam for the purpose of beautification, raising of ground water level and navigation route. Honourable Chief minister, Uttar Pradesh Government has announced to construct a Rubber dam on river Yamuna at 1.5 Km Downstream of Taj Mahal on 26.10.2017. (Announcement No. YAL-18/2017 Sl. No. GH11Y000040). Since it was demanded by various Jan Pratinidhi and recommended by various committee since long time. After that a Detail Project Report has been prepared costing Rs. 413.34 crore. The Project has been approved by Departmental Chief Engineers Committee. The Proposed Length of Rubber dam is 386 m. The 6 bay and 2 navigation bay is proposed in 386 m length of Rubber dam.

  • Bird Species in Delhi-“Birdwatching” Tourism
    Conference Proceedings: 2 nd International Scientific Conference ITEMA 2018 BIRD SPECIES IN DELHI-“BIRDWATCHING” TOURISM Zeba Zarin Ansari 63 Ajay Kumar 64 Anton Vorina 65 https://doi.org/10.31410/itema.2018.161 Abstract : A great poet William Wordsworth once wrote in his poem “The world is too much with us” that we do not have time to relax in woods and to see birds chirping on trees. According to him we are becoming more materialistic and forgetting the real beauty of nature. Birds are counted one of beauties of nature and indeed they are smile giver to human being. When we get tired or bored of something we seek relax to a tranquil place to overcome the tiredness. Different birds come every morning to make our day fresh. But due to drainage system, over population, cutting down of trees and many other disturbances in the metro city like Delhi, lots of species of birds are disappearing rapidly. Thus a conservation and management system need to be required to stop migration and disappearance of birds. With the government initiative and with the help of concerned NGOs and other departments we need to settle to the construction of skyscrapers. As we know bird watching tourism is increasing rapidly in the market, to make this tourism as the fastest outdoor activity in Delhi, the place will have to focus on the conservation and protection of the wetlands and forests, management of groundwater table to make a healthy ecosystem, peaceful habitats and pollution-free environment for birds. Delhi will also have to concentrate on what birdwatchers require, including their safety, infrastructure, accessibility, quality of birdlife and proper guides.

  • Current Condition of the Yamuna River - an Overview of Flow, Pollution Load and Human Use
    Current condition of the Yamuna River - an overview of flow, pollution load and human use Deepshikha Sharma and Arun Kansal, TERI University Introduction Yamuna is the sub-basin of the Ganga river system. Out of the total catchment’s area of 861404 sq km of the Ganga basin, the Yamuna River and its catchment together contribute to a total of 345848 sq. km area which 40.14% of total Ganga River Basin (CPCB, 1980-81; CPCB, 1982-83). It is a large basin covering seven Indian states. The river water is used for both abstractive and in stream uses like irrigation, domestic water supply, industrial etc. It has been subjected to over exploitation, both in quantity and quality. Given that a large population is dependent on the river, it is of significance to preserve its water quality. The river is polluted by both point and non-point sources, where National Capital Territory (NCT) – Delhi is the major contributor, followed by Agra and Mathura. Approximately, 85% of the total pollution is from domestic source. The condition deteriorates further due to significant water abstraction which reduces the dilution capacity of the river. The stretch between Wazirabad barrage and Chambal river confluence is critically polluted and 22km of Delhi stretch is the maximum polluted amongst all. In order to restore the quality of river, the Government of India (GoI) initiated the Yamuna Action Plan (YAP) in the1993and later YAPII in the year 2004 (CPCB, 2006-07). Yamuna river basin River Yamuna (Figure 1) is the largest tributary of the River Ganga. The main stream of the river Yamuna originates from the Yamunotri glacier near Bandar Punch (38o 59' N 78o 27' E) in the Mussourie range of the lower Himalayas at an elevation of about 6320 meter above mean sea level in the district Uttarkashi (Uttranchal).
