INTRODUCTION The Annual Report is a document giving details of the annual Programme, Progress and important events that have taken place during the year, in the Water Resources Department. GEOGRAPHICAL AREA The geographical area of Karnataka is 1,91,791 Sq. Km., accounting for 5.83% of the total area of the country. The cultivable command area of the State is 1, 40,598 sq. Km. The net sown area is 1,07,000 sq. Km and the ultimate Irrigation Potential from Major and Medium Irrigation Projects has been estimated as 35,000 sq. Km or 35.00 Lakh Ha. PROGRESS IN BRIEF Presently, the Irrigation Department is known as the Water Resources Department. There are 133 Major and Medium Irrigation Projects in the State, out of which 47 projects are completed, 76 are ongoing. The Water Resources Department has established three special purpose vehicles, namely, Krishna Bhagya Jala Nigama Limited (KBJNL), Karnataka Neeravari Nigama Limited (KNNL) and Cauvery Neeravari Nigam Limited (CNNL), under the companies Act of 1956, to mobilize financial resources for speedy completion of major and medium irrigation projects with-in the targeted period. KRISHNA BHAGYA JALA NIGAM LIMITED (KBJNL): “Krishna Bhagya Jala Nigam Limited” was formed vide G.O. No. ID/25/WBM/95, dated: 6-5- 94, to expedite the works of Upper Krishna Project (UKP). This Nigam is functioning since 19th August 1994. KARNATAKA NEERAVARI NIGAMLIMITED (KNNL): ”Karnataka Neeravari Nigam Limited” was formed vide G.O. No. ID: 201: KBN: 98, dated: 26-11-98, to expedite the works in Krishna Basin, except UKP. This Nigam is functioning since 9th December 1998. CAUVERY NEERAVARI NIGAM LIMITED (CNNL): ”Cauvery Neeravari Nigam Limited” was formed vide G.O. No. WRD: 32: KBN: 2003, Dated: 12.05.2003, to expedite the works in Cauvery Basin. This Nigam is functioning since 3rd June 2003. INDEX 5 1.

ACHIEVEMENTS OF WATER RESOURCES DEPARTMENT DURING 2008-09 During 2008-09, 7 Major & medium irrigation projects are completed and irrigation potential of 47201 ha. Is created. The ultimate irrigation potential is 35 lakh Ha from Major & medium irrigation projects. Upto end of March 2009, cumulative irrigation potential of 24.28 lakh ha has been created. Out of the targetted irrigation potential of 6.22 Lakh Ha under Upper Krishna Project, an irrigation potential of 5.88 lakh Ha has been created so for. The balance works of Jewargi Branch Canal, Narayanapur Right Bank Canal, Mulwad Lift Irrigation Scheme, Almatti Right Bank Canal and Almatti Left Bank Canal of Upper Krishna Project are nearing completion. To utilize Krishna waters under Upper Krishna Project, Ramthal (Marol) Lift Irrigation Scheme, Teggi- Siddapura Lift Irrigation Scheme, Thimmapura Lift Irrigation Scheme, Sonna Lift Irrigation Scheme and Rolli-Mannikeri Lift Irrigation Scheme are taken up in the backwaters of Almatti Reservoir and are in progress. During 2008-09, Central Assistance under A.I.B.P. to the tune of Rs. 214.94 Crores for 6 Major & medium irrigation projects has been availed and an expenditure of Rs. 418.87 Crores has been incurred. 17 Major & Medium irrigation projects in six selected districts are posed for assistance under the Hon‟ble Prime Minister‟s Special Rehabilitation Package out of which, 8 projects are dropped. Planning Commission clearance in respect of three projects of Belgaum District is awaited. Up to end of March 2009 a sum of Rs.278.77 Crores is released for 4 projects and total expenditure incurred on all 17 projects is Rs.1074.68 Crores and an irrigation potential of 59,815 Ha is created.

It is distinguished from congeners by a combination of characters including a slen- der body, 21–24 pored lateral-line scales and a striking colour pattern consisting of 11 bars and a mosaic of black and red pigmentation on the side of the body including the end of caudal peduncle, and the absence of cleithral, opercular, or cau- dal-peduncle blotches, or an ocellus on the caudal-fin base.

K. Puram, New Delhi-110066 FOREWORD Salinity is a significant challenge and poses risks to sustainable development of Coastal regions of India. If left unmanaged, salinity has serious implications for water quality, biodiversity, agricultural productivity, supply of water for critical human needs and industry and the longevity of infrastructure. The Coastal Salinity has become a persistent problem due to ingress of the sea water inland. This is the most significant environmental and economical challenge and needs immediate attention. The coastal areas are more susceptible as these are pockets of development in the country. Most of the trade happens in the coastal areas which lead to extensive migration in the coastal areas. This led to the depletion of the coastal fresh water resources. Digging more and more deeper wells has led to the ingress of sea water into the fresh water aquifers turning them saline. The rainfall patterns, water resources, geology/hydro-geology vary from region to region along the coastal belt.

    KALASA-BANDURI PROJECT (States) a Day After the Centre's

    KALASA‐BANDURI PROJECT (States) A day after the Centre’s notification of the Mahadayi inter‐State water dispute tribunal award, Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa said on Friday that the State government would expedite the Kalasa‐Banduri nala drinking water and hydro power projects in the region. Kalasa‐Banduri project was planned in 1989; Goa raised an objection to it. Kalasa‐Banduri Nala Project is undertaken by the Government of Karnataka to improve drinking water supply to the three districts of Belagavi, Dharwad, and Gadag. It involves building across Kalasa and Banduri, two tributaries of the Mahadayi river to divert water to the Malaprabha river (a tributary of Krishna river). Malaprabha river supplies the drinking water to Dharwad, Belgaum, and Gadag districts. The cost of the Kalasa‐Banduri Nala project on the Mahadayi basin has risen from about ` 94 crores (2000) to `1,677.30 crores (2020) due to the ongoing inter‐State river water dispute. Mahadayi or Mhadei, the west‐flowing river, originates in Bhimgad Wildlife Sanctuary (Western Ghats), Belagavi district of Karnataka. It is essentially a rain‐fed river also called Mandovi in Goa. It is joined by a number of streams to form the Mandovi which is one of two major rivers (the other one is Zuari river) that flows through Goa. The river travels 35 km in Karnataka; 82 km in Goa before joining the Arabian Sea. The Mahadayi Water Disputes Tribunal was set up in 2010. Goa, Karnataka and Maharashtra are parties to the tribunal. MISSION PURVODAYA (States) Purvodaya in steel sector is aimed at driving accelerated development of Eastern India through establishment of integrated steel hub.

    Assessment of Water Quality Changes in Krishna River of Andhrap Radesh Through Geoinformatics

    International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering (IJRTE) ISSN: 2277-3878, Volume-7, Issue-6C2, April 2019 Assessment of Water Quality Changes in Krishna River of Andhrap radesh Through Geoinformatics Lakshman Kumar.C.H, D. Satish Chandra, S.S.Asadi Abstract--- Pancha Boothas are Life and Death for the are permissible in river water but exceed their level its Environment. In that any one is Disrupted that can be Escort to causes several diseases for users and Toxic elements, excess the danger of environment. Water is the one of the Pancha nutrients create vadose zones in river courses [5]. Most of Boothas. Quality of the water is very crucial in the present and the assured irrigation in India is surface water of rivers. It is future users. Natural issues and manmade activities are depending on the water quality. The ratio of transportation of essential to monitor and assess the water quality in the fresh water in liquid form to covert useless form is 70%. The Krishna river course. ratio of sedimentation is also one of the parameter of the water quality, if changes are happen in sedimentation the quality of the Notations: water also changes. The causes of water pollution source are GDSQ: Gauge Discharge Sediment and Water Quality many, of which sewage discharge, industrial effluents, agricultural effluents and several man made activities are play a GDQ : Gauge Discharge Water Quality key role on water quality. The total percentage of water in the pH : Potential of Hydrogen world is 97% in Oceans and reaming 3% of water in form of EC : Electric Conductivity glaciers, in which the consumption of water quantity is in form of CO3 : Carbonate surface and subsurface water bodies.
