I. BACKGROUND

NGT Case No. 673/2018: Hon’ble National Green Tribunal Central Zonal Bench New Delhi, in the matter of Original Application No. 673/2018 (News item published in ‘THE HINDU’ Authored by Shri. Jacob Koshy Titled “More river stretches are now critically polluted: CPCB”) passed an order on 20/09/2018.

The para 48, 49 and 50.3 of this order are relevant to comply. The para 48 states that, “it is absolutely necessary that Action Plans are prepared to restore the polluted river stretches to the prescribed standards". Para 49 states that “Model Action Plan for Hindon River, already prepared by the CPCB, may also be taken into account.”

Further in para 50 (I, ii, iii) Hon’ble National Green Tribunal has issued following directions:- i) All States and Union Territories are directed to prepare action plans within two months for bringing all the polluted river stretches to be fit at least for bathing purposes (i.e BOD ˂ 3 mg/L and FC ˂ 500 MPN/100 ml) within six months from the date of finalisation of the action plans. ii) The action plans may be prepared by four-member Committee comprising, Director, Environment, Director, Urban Development, Director, Industries. Member Secretary, State Pollution Control Board of concerned State. This Committee will also be the Monitoring Committee for execution of the action plan. The Committee may be called ‘’River Rejuvenation Committee’’ (RRC). The RRC will function under the overall supervision and coordination of Principal Secretary, Environment of the concerned State/Union Territory. iii) The action plan will include components like identification of polluting sources including functioning/ status of STPs/ETPs/CETP and solid waste management and processing facilities, quantification and characterisation of solid waste, trade and sewage generated in the catchment area of polluted river stretch. The action plan will address issues relating to; ground water extraction, adopting good irrigation practices, protection and management of Flood Plain Zones (FPZ), rain water harvesting, ground water charging, maintaining minimum environmental flow of river and plantation on both sides of the river. Setting up of biodiversity parks on flood plains by removing encroachment shall also be considered as an important component for river rejuvenation. The action plan should focus on proper interception and diversion of sewage carrying drains to the Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) and emphasis should be on utilization of treated sewage so as to minimize extraction of ground or surface water. The action plan should have speedy, definite or specific timelines for execution of steps. Provision may be made to pool the resources, utilizing funds from State budgets, local bodies, State Pollution Control Board/ Committee and out of Central Schemes.

In para 47 of the above order dated 20/09/2018, the polluted stretch of River Betwa to be considered for rejuvenation extends from Mandideep to Vidisha. In compliance to the above directions of Hon’ble NGT, the present report with proposed action plan is hereby submitted for consideration. 4 ACTION PLAN FOR REJUVENATION OF RIVER BETWA

II. INTRODUCTION- BETWA STRETCH – MANDIDEEP TO VIDISHA

The Betwa or Betravati is a river in Northern India, and a tributary of the Yamuna. Also known as the Vetravati. The river originates at Jhirri Village (District Sehore) near Bhopal and flows north-east through Madhya Pradesh and Orchha and joins Yamuna River near Hamirpur at Ghatampur. During its travel from origin to the destination traverses a long distance of about 654 Kms out of which a stretch of about 232 kilometres lies in Madhya Pradesh and the rest in Uttar Pradesh. The river benefits both the States in terms of irrigation and potable water. The flow in Madhya Pradesh from origin up to Bhojpur is very meagre except for the monsoon season. Between Bhojpur and Vidisha again the river flow is non- contiguous in non-monsoon season. The river demonstrates the perennial characteristics only beyond Vidisha after confluence of small tributaries.

Betwa stretch being monitored by the Bhopal Regional Office of MPPCB

River Betwa originates from village Jhirri (District Sehore) about 20 Km from the Capital. The river travels a distance of about 30 Km before it enters the Mandideep Industrial Area region. In this patch the river flow in non-monsoon period is very low and river is observed to be broken into small patches. On down-stream of the Mandideep also the flow is observed to be non-contiguous during non-monsoon period; however considerable flow is observed in river Betwa after Bhojpur due to confluence of River Kaliasot near Bhojpur and a couple of small tributaries flowing into the Betwa from eastern part. From Bhojpur the R. Betwa travels towards Raisen but pass by without touching the Raisen habitation. The river enters Vidisha via Pagneshwar at Village Rangai. River Baise joins the river Betwa on the down-stream of Vidisha near Charanteerth.

River stretch extending from the origin point at village Jhirri up to Vidisha measures about 100 Km.

III. Sources of contamination in Betwa

During its travel from origin the river caters the water need of Mandideep, Bhojpuri, Vidisha, and at the same time it drains the waste-water of these areas. The waste water generated from north-eastern part of Bhopal city travels through patra nalla (joining river Halali) and collects in the Halali dam. Over flow of Halali Dam joins River Betwa on the down-stream of Vidisha. Similarly, the waste-water from the central and southern part of Bhopal city is drained into River Kaliasot which joins River Betwa before Bhojpur. Thus, the major waste- water streams / possible source of contamination mixing in the river are as follows:

Major drains / source of contamination in River Betwa

1. Nallah from Patel Nagar Madideep near Railway bridge 2. Nallah from AKVN WTP back-wash and Maderi Village before Nayapura Road bridge 3. Nayapura Nallah under the Road bridge 4. Nallah from Rahul Nagar behind Satlapur Industrial Area 5. River Kaliasot before Bhojpur (carrying waste-water from part of Bhopal City) 6. Pilia Nallah Vidisha. Only during monsoon period, rest of the time the nallah is dry. 7. Sewage Nallah of Vidisha city at downstream of Vidisha near Charanteerth.

Point wise brief of the major polluting drains is as follows:

1. Patel Nagar Domestic Sewage :- This drain runs through a distance of around 2.81 Km from its origin point. The maximum flow in this drain is around 0.4 MLD.

IV. RIVER QUALITY IN THE STRETCH:

Sampling is being carried out in the entire stretch of the river from its origin point at Village Jhirri (District – Sehore) up to downstream of Vidisha (District – Vidisha) periodically. The interpretation of the analysis results predicts A, B & C quality at various points of river in this stretch. Current analyses report of river Betwa is enclosed.

The interpretation of the analysis reports obtained from the analysis of samples when compared with the standards laid down in IS 2296 revealed that:

 The water quality at the origin point of the river at Village Jhirri may be classified as ‘A’, that is, water here does not require any treatment before use. The flow at this point is however very meagre as apparent from the picture no. 1.  Water quality at all other points in the entire stretch of river Betwa can be classified as ‘B’ and ‘C’ during lean season when the flow in the river is not contiguous.  The river is draining sewage of part of Bhopal City (through River Kaliasot), Villages and settlements in and around Mandideep, Vidisha City. The river also carries agriculture run-offs from its catchments during the monsoons. Owing to above the river is exposed to biological contamination, which bring down the class of the river to some extent.

Conclusion: During post monsoon when there is flow in the river the average quality of the river is observed to be “B”. Later from November on wards the flow in the river is non-contiguous and at some points when there is no flow in the river the water quality of the stagnant water in patches may go down to class ‘C’. Consistent & better quality of river is expected in the entire stretch after completion of the following proposed / under implementation plans -

 Installation of the STPs on the sewage nallah in catchment of River Kaliasot and River Betwa in Mandideep & Bhopal Region.  Channelization & installation of the STPs’ on the sewage nallahs draining Vidisha.  Augmentation of water in river so as to maintain e-flow in river.

V. SEWAGE TREATMENT & DISPOSAL STATUS

Vidisha Region:

Currently, Vidisha city sewage is being drained through two major nallahs namely Chorghat nalla and Jatrapura nalla. Nagar Palika Vidisha has diverted these nallas and the other small drains and the sewage from the entire drains is collected and treated through ‘Karnal Technology’ having a capacity of 7.02 MLD. Beside above the storm-water of the city is drained through Pillia Nalla.

Proposed Plan for Vidisha City sewage:

Nagar Palika Vidisha has prepared an integrated sewerage treatment system for the entire Vidisha city. The details for the same are as follows:

 Proposed STP: 03 Nos. Capacities: 7.75 MLD, 7.75 MLD & 6.75 MLD  Under the plan the entire waste-water drains including Chorghat nalla, Pillia nalla and Jatrapura nalla are covered.  After completion of the above work no untreated or semi-treated waste-water from Vidisha city shall mix into the River Betwa.  It is reported that the work is in progress and expected date of completion is April 2019.

Mandideep Region:

Mandideep Nagar Palika Parishad has reported that the proposal pertaining installation of integrated sewage treatment and disposal for the entire Mandideep region has been forwarded to ED, MPUDC for approval. Entire scheme has been included in ADB. The approval on the same is expected from MPUDC after elections.

M/s HEG Ltd, Mandideep has constructed a stop-dam on river Betwa before Bhojpur (near the confluence point of River Kaliasot). The industry has made an agreement with WRD (M.P. Govt) for lifting water (2500 KLD) from the river for use in captive power production. At this point major quantum of water from R. Kaliasot is being lifted & utilized by the industry. Thus during non-monsoon period effectively no water from Kaliasot find its way beyond Bhojpur as the same is being lifted by the industry. Overflow from the HEG stop-dam is observed only during monsoon.
