ILR in Parliament ILR in Parliament Here, the ILR issues raised and were discussed in both the houses of Parliament during the Winter session and reporting period starting from 01st October to 31st December, 2019 and projected on the Parliament of India website (Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha) were incorporated here for information to our readers/stakeholders. A. Lok Sabha 1.1 Whether any proposals regarding ILR in Karnataka, Rajasthan, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh are pending with the Government; if so, the details and reasons; the details of work done so far to inter-link the waters of rivers and dams in the said States; and whether any hindrances are being faced in completion of the said projects and if so, the details thereof. The NPP was prepared by the then Ministry of Irrigation (now MoJS) in August 1980 for water resources development through IBWT for transferring water from water surplus basins to water-deficit basins. Under the NPP, the NWDA has identified 30 links (16 under Peninsular Component and 14 under Himalayan Component) for preparation of FRs. Under the NPP, three ILR projects namely, Krishna (Almatti)-Pennar; Bedti-Varda and Netravati-Hemavati link projects have been identified benefitting Karnataka State. Three ILR projects namely, Yamuna- Rajasthan; Rajasthan-Sabarmati and Parbati–Kalishindh – Chambal link projects have been identified benefitting Rajasthan State. Two ILR projects namely, D-P and P-T-N link projects have been identified benefitting Maharashtra State. Six ILR projects namely, K-B; Gandak – Ganga; Ghaghra (Karnali)-Yamuna; Sarda-Yamuna; Chunar-Sone Barrage and Kosi-Ghaghra (Karnali) link projects have been identified benefitting UP State. The details of the ILR projects indicating their status is given at Annexure-I. Apart from the above, NWDA has received proposals of 6, 20 and 2 Intra-State link projects respectively from the Governments of Karnataka, Maharashtra and Rajasthan. The details of the Intra-State link projects indicating their status is given at Annexure-II. The implementation of river link projects involves various steps such as preparation of PFRs/ FRs/DPRs of links, negotiation and consensus among concerned States, clearances from the Ministry of Environment and Forest & Climate Change (MoEF&CC), Ministry of Tribal Affairs (MoTA), Techno-economic clearance by Advisory Committee on Irrigation, Flood Control & Multipurpose Projects of MoJS and investment clearance. The stage of implementation of a project would be reached after its DPR is prepared and consensuses of concerned States and requisite statutory clearances are obtained. The main problems involving implementation of the ILR projects also include problem in consensus among party States, funding mechanism and international issues (when ILR projects involve other countries).

Further, the PFRs of two Intra-state links namely, Mahi – Luni link and Wakal – Sabarmati – Sei – West Banas – Kameri link was prepared by NWDA and sent to the Government of Rajasthan indicating that the Intra-State links were not found to be feasible due to technical reasons. Water resources projects are planned, funded, executed and maintained by the State Governments themselves as per their own resources and priorities. In order to supplement the efforts of the State Governments, Government of India provides technical and financial assistance to encourage sustainable development and efficient management of water resources through various schemes and programmes such as Accelerated Irrigation Benefits Programme (AIBP) etc. under Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY). During 2016-17, ninety-nine (99) on-going Major/Medium Irrigation (MMI) projects under PMKSY-AIBP having ultimate irrigation potential of 76.03 lakh hectare and balance estimated cost of Rs. 77595 crore (Central Assistance (CA) component of Rs.31342 crore) have been prioritized. Funding mechanism through NABARD has also been approved by the Government for both Central and State share. The funds are released for projects on receipt of eligible proposals from the State Government. Under PMKSY-AIBP, two prioritized projects namely, Narmada canal and Modernization of Ganga canal having combined potential of 3.16 Lakh ha have been identified benefitting Rajasthan State and the AIBP works of both the projects have been reported as completed. 1.3 Whether the special committee on ILR has in its report identified 14 links under the peninsular component and 2 links under the Himalayan component and if so, the details thereof; the time by which the projects are

    lR;eso t;rs INDIA NATION ACTION PROGRAMME TO COMBAT DESERTIFICATION In the Context of UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION TO COMBAT DESERTIFICATION (UNCCD) Volume-I Status of Desertification MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT & FORESTS GOVERNMENT OF INDIA NEW DELHI September 2001 National Action Programme to Combat Desertification FOREWORD India is endowed with a wide variety of climate, ecological regions, land and water resources. However, with barely 2.4% of the total land area of the world, our country has to be support 16.7% of the total human population and about 18% of the total livestock population of the world. This has put enormous pressure on our natural resources. Ecosystems are highly complex systems relating to a number of factors -both biotic and abiotic - governing them. Natural ecosystems by and large have a high resilience for stability and regeneration. However, continued interference and relentless pressures on utilisation of resources leads to an upset of this balance. If these issues are not effectively and adequately addressed in a holistic manner, they can lead to major environmental problems such as depletion of vegetative cover, increase in soil ero- sion, decline in water table, and loss of biodiversity all of which directly impact our very survival. Thus, measures for conservation of soil and other natural resources, watershed development and efficient water management are the key to sustainable development of the country. The socio-ecomonic aspects of human activities form an important dimension to the issue of conservation and protection of natural resources. The measures should not only include rehabilitation of degraded lands but to also ensure that the living condi- tions of the local communities are improved.

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.

  • Chapter - 1 Introduction
    Chapter - 1 Introduction 1.1 General This report contains revised feasibility studies of Par-Tapi-Narmada Link project. This Link in the western part of India is planned to transfer water from the water surplus regions of Western Ghats to the water deficit regions of Saurashtra and Kutch. The link project includes seven reservoirs proposed in north Maharashtra and south Gujarat. The water from the seven proposed reservoirs would be taken through a 395 km long canal including the 33km length of the feeder canals to take over a part of the command of the on- going Sardar Sarovar Project, while irrigating small enroute areas. This would save Sardar Sarovar water which will be used to extend irrigation in Saurashtra and Kutch region. 1.1.1 Need for planning The rainfall in the country is mostly confined to monsoon season and is unevenly distributed with respect to both space and time. As a result, some parts of the country are affected by frequent droughts, whereas other parts are affected by floods. Nearly one third of the country is drought prone. Water will become scarce resource in the near future, due to increasing thrust of population and increasing demands of water for various uses. Therefore, it needs no emphasis that water needs to be harnessed in a scientific and efficient manner for its optimum utilisation. The monsoon flood waters need to be conserved and utilised during the period of its scarcity for drinking & industrial use, irrigation, power generation etc. The water availability and requirements in the various river basins should be assessed realistically and the requirements be met appropriately.
