BRIEF NOTE on UPPER BHADRA PROJECT Upper Bhadra Project-Stage - 1 Was Accorded Environmental Clearance Vide Letter Dated 05.01.2010 BRIEF NOTE ON UPPER BHADRA PROJECT Upper Bhadra Project-Stage - 1 was accorded environmental clearance vide letter dated 05.01.2010. The Project involved lifting of water from Tunga and Bhadra rivers and convey water to the drought-prone districts of Chikmagalur and Chitradurga distrcts utilizing 21.5 TMC of water to irrigate 1,07,265 hactares through flow irrigation system. The project also involved filling up of 37 MI tanks to cater the needs of drinking water supply in the said districts. The stage-1 project neither involved submergence nor construction of new dams/weirs. However, as Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary located within 10 km from the main canal, the project was considered as ‘A’ category and completed Environmental Public Consultation in Chickmagalur and Chitradurga Districts. The project was appraised by MoEF, New Delhi in 2009-10 and accorded Environmental Clearance on 5.01.2010 (ref). Further, as per the environmental clearance conditions, six monthly compliance reports are being regularly submitted to Regional Office of MoEF, Bangalore and KSPCB regularly. Considering the availability of more water for the project and the dire need by farmers of Davanagere and Tumkur Districts, the scope of the project is increased to cover these districts. The proposed project (Stage-2) utilizes the same infrastructure (of Stage - I) for the project to irrigate additional 1,18,250 Ha of drought prone area and filling up of additional 330 MI tanks in command area, thus improving water table and providing a major source of drinking water. Further, in order to achieve water conservation, the entire command (existing 1,07,265 Ha + proposed 1,18,250 Ha) area is proposed to be brought under drip irrigation system. However, the proposed expansion will utilize existing infrastructure of the Upper Bhadra Project stage-1 including the main canals and existing Bhadra dam and only involves construction of branch canals and distributory network in Davangere and Tumkur districts. Additional land required for the construction of branch canals will be compensated as per the Land Acquisition Act, in force. The Government of Karnataka has accorded revised administrative approval to the modified scope of the project (Copy enclosed). As the project fulfills the criteria of a ‘National Project’ of the Ministry of Water Resources, Govt. of India, the Project is posed to the Central MoWR as ‘National Project’ seeking Central Assistance for implementation. As described above, the only proposed project components of stage-2 involves construction of branch canals to provide micro irrigation facility. The existing area under stage-1 will also be brought completely under micro irrigation, thus saving water resources. Upper Bhadra expansion Project is a major lift irrigation Scheme under implementation in the central region of Karnataka State. It envisages lifting upto17.40 TMC of water in first stage from Tunga river to existing Bhadra reservoir and lifting 29.90 TMC of water in second stage from Bhadra reservoir to Tunnel near Ajjampura, in Tungabhadra sub-basin of Krishna basin. After Tunnel, it is planned to irrigate an extent of 2,25,515 ha by micro irrigation in districts of Chikmagalur, Chitradurga, Tumkur and Davangere. The primary objective of the project is providing sustainable irrigation facility in khariff season and the other objective of the project is to recharge the ground water table and provide drinking water by filling 367 tanks in drought-prone taluks of the above said districts.

  • Bhadra Voluntary Relocation India
    BHADRA VOLUNTARY RELOCATION INDIA INDIA FOREWORD During my tenure as Director Project Tiger in the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Govt. of India, I had the privilege of participating in voluntary relocation of villages from Bhadra Tiger Reserve. As nearly two decades have passed, whatever is written below is from my memory only. Mr Yatish Kumar was the Field Director of Bhadra Tiger Reserve and Mr Gopalakrishne Gowda was the Collector of Chikmagalur District of Karnataka during voluntary relocation in Bhadra Tiger Reserve. This Sanctuary was notified as a Tiger Reserve in the year 1998. After the notification as tiger reserve, it was necessary to relocate the existing villages as the entire population with their cattle were dependent on the Tiger Reserve. The area which I saw in the year 1998 was very rich in flora and fauna. Excellent bamboo forests were available but it had fire hazard too because of the presence of villagers and their cattle. Tiger population was estimated by Dr. Ullas Karanth and his love for this area was due to highly rich biodiversity. Ultimately, resulted in relocation of all the villages from within the reserve. Dr Karanth, a devoted biologist was a close friend of mine and during his visit to Delhi he proposed relocation of villages. As the Director of Project Tiger, I was looking at voluntary relocation of villages for tribals only from inside Tiger Reserve by de-notifying suitable areas of forests for relocation, but in this case the villagers were to be relocated by purchasing a revenue land which was very expensive.

  • Conservation-Induced Displacement: a Comparative Study of Two Indian Protected Areas
    [Downloaded free from http://www.conservationandsociety.org on Friday, July 30, 2010, IP: 71.111.187.206] Conservation and Society 7(4): 249-267, 2009 Article Conservation-induced Displacement: A Comparative Study of Two Indian Protected Areas Asmita Kabra School of Human Ecology, Ambedkar University, Delhi, India E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Attempts at ‘preservation via displacement’ are an extreme manifestation of the ‘fortress’ or an exclusionary conservation paradigm, support for which has increased lately due to escalating conservation threats. While the policies and processes emanating from this paradigm have produced positive conservation outcomes for some Protected Areas, livelihood outcomes for the displaced people have seldom been as positive. This article examines whether the impoverishment risks arising from conservation-induced displacement tend to vary with the degree of marginalisation of the displaced community. In this light, this article examines in detail the impact on livelihood of conservation-induced displacement in two Protected Areas (PAs) of India. The article posits that understanding the dynamic livelihood context of displaced communities, especially the ecological base of their livelihoods, is critical to any assessment of their pre- and post-displacement livelihood strategies and livelihood outcomes (such as income, poverty, food security and health). A variety of livelihood parameters, including compensation received, consumption fl ows, agricultural production, monetary income, food security, headcount ratio of poverty and overall poverty indices have been studied, to understand the extent to which key livelihood risks arising out of displacement are addressed by the rehabilitation package and process in the two PAs. The Sahariya is a forest-dependent Adivasi community living in and around the Kuno Wildlife Sanctuary in the semi-arid tropical region of Madhya Pradesh.

  • District Irrigation Plan
    DISTRICT IRRIGATION PLAN CHIKKAMAGALURU Prepared by JOINT DIRECTOR OF AGRICULTURE, CHIKKAMAGALURU JULY - 2016 i | Page FOREWORD Chikkamagaluru district has been foreign exchange earner for the country for ages, through its dominating position in production, processing and trading of Coffee and other plantation products. Lately it is gaining the name of Pepper Kingdom, owing to the immense increase in earnings by this product in the district. Although per capita income is around 1.18 lakhs, disparities within the population is highly visible, mostly due to the fact that bulk of district GDP comes from Services sector like, Exports, Trade, Banking and Hospitality sector, in which larger population does not participate. The three distinctly different agro-climatic zones of the district also contribute to income disparities in the rural areas, with a sparsely populated hilly and Malnad region, that contribute income from plantations have a higher per capita earning than the plains of Central dry zone of Kadur taluk and Southern Transitional Zone of Tarikere and eastern parts of Chikkamagaluru taluk. High rainfall of Malnad region varying between 1900 mm to 3500 mm and scanty rains in Kadur and Tarikere taluks between 600 mm and 700 mm not only cause income disparities, but also challenges in distribution of water for agriculture and domestic use purposes, so much so some of the villages in high rainfall zone and scanty rainfall regions face drinking water issues in summer. The district has seized the Prime Minister’s Krishi Sinchayee Yojana as an opportunity to plan for better use of rain water for agriculture, domestic, livestock, industrial and other uses.
