Introduction 1.1 Geographical setting of the district:- Faridabad was the twelfth district created out of the state of Haryana on 2nd August, 1979. On 04th April, 2005, Hathin tehsil from Faridabad was merged into the newly created district of Mewat (Nuh) and further on 13th August, 2008, Palwal was crafted out of Faridabad as a new district. Faridabad is situated between 28O 25’ 16” N latitude and 77O 18’ 28” E longitude. It is surrounded by Delhi in the North, Gurgaon in the West, Uttar Pradesh in the East and Palwal in the South. 1.2 Administrative setup of the district.

Drainage System 2.1 Drainage System:- Faridabad has a wide network of canals and link drains. Prominent amongst them are the Gaunchhi Main Drain, the Buriyah Nallah System, the Gurgaon canal the Ujjina Diversion Drain. These major drains cater to the need of different zones of the district which is listed and explained as under:- 1. Gaunchhi Main Drain 2. Faridabad City Eastern and Western Zone along Area Gurgaon Canal 3. Buriya Nallah System 1. Gaunchhi Main Drain. Gaunchhi Main drain starts just upstream of R.D. No. 9844 of Gurgaon Canal and traverses a length of 70 K.M. It caters for catchment of 259 Sq miles before out falling in river Yamuna in Tehsil Palwal. There are a number of link drains which outfall into Gaunchi Main drain, but very few of such link drains can function when the main drain runs with full capacity. The remaining link drains start functioning only when there is a reduction in the full supply level in Gaunchi Main drain. In addition to these link drains, there are about 31 direct inlets draining into Gaunchi Main drain catering for local pockets, and these inlets too do not function till the level in Gaunchi Main Drain starts falling. The problem is further aggravated by excessive silting and sloughing in the Gaunchi Main Drain. During the period of rains, inlets of these link drains and direct inlets give a back flow and upstream start getting flooded and certain village Abadies are also badly effected. It takes about one months to clear the water so collected after the inlets are opened. A number of Village abadies falling in its catchment areas have been provided with ring bunds & it is hoped that the flooding problem in this area will ease to a great extent. However there is still need to keep a close watch in this area during the rainy season. 2. Faridabad City Eastern and Western Zone along Area Gurgaon Canal: Faridabad city zone consists of the area of old city zone of Faridabad, 21 villages namely Lakkarpur, Anangpur, Sarai Khawaja, Basantpur Mawai, Wazirpur,Budena, Baselva, Daultabad, Ajronda,Ismailpur, Agwanpur, Sehatpur, Palla & Atmadpur, Mewla Maharajpur, Ankhir and Badkhal, having population and three inhabited (Bechirage) villages namely Salarpur, Asalatpur and Bandepur, besides, five sector No. 15,15- A,16,16-A and 18-A of Urban Estates have also been made over to this Zone for maintenance. In the East, river Yamuna flows along the boundary of village Basantpur. Due to floods in the river Yamuna, the areas of villages Basantpur, Ismailpur and Agwanpur are inundated frequently.Two canals namely, Gurgaon canal and Agra canal also pass through this zone dividing this zone in two parts villages Palla, Sahatpur, Agwanpur, Ismailpur, Basantpur Mawai, Wazirpur and Budena on the eastern side and the remaining on the western side of these canals. 7 Out of these villages, Basantpur, Ismailpur and Agwanpur are dangerously exposed areas and village Sehatpur is moderately exposed area. In the western area of this Zone,Buria Nallah passing through village Agwanpur, Sarai Khawaja and Etmadpur also outfalls in River Yamuna. Besides, there is one Ankhir Nallah carrying water from hills of Badkhal and Ankhir passing through Barapulla bridge affects the areas of old Faridabad particularly the locality of Raja Garden, Gopi Colony, Baba Nagar, Shiv Colony and effects the area of village Daualtabad, Sector 16, 16-A, 17, 14 and 19.

  • 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).

  • E-Flow) in River Yamuna
    Environmental flow (E-Flow) in river Yamuna Context: The Hon’ble NGT in its judgment dated 13 January 2015 and through subsequent directions in OA No 6 of 2012 and 300 of 2013 given directions for the maintenance of requisite environmental flow in river Yamuna downstream of the barrage at Hathnikund in Haryana and at Okhla in Delhi so that there is enough fresh water flowing in the river till Agra for restoration of the river’s ecological functions. The Hon’ble Supreme Court had in W.P. ( C ) 537 of 1992 directed on 14 May 1999, that “a minimum flow of 10 cumecs (353 cusec) must be allowed to flow throughout the river Yamuna”. The report of the three member committee of MoWR, RD and GR on Assessment of Environmental Flows (E-Flows) has in March 2015 determined scientifically that E Flows as % of 90% dependable virgin flow at downstream Pashulok Barrage, Rishikesh on river Ganga should be 65.80%. It may be noted that the situation of river Yamuna at the Hathnikund barrage in Haryana is comparable to the situation at Rishikesh on river Ganga. In addition river Ganga at Rishikesh carries far more virgin flow in it as compared to leaner river Yamuna at Hathnikund. E – Flow in river Yamuna In view of the above it has been estimated that the E Flow in river Yamuna downstream of the barrage at Hathnikund should be no less than 2500 cusec (around 70% of the average minimum virgin flow of 3500 cusec reported at Hathnikund barrage during the leanest month of January).

  • PPT on Yamuna
    PPT ON REJUVENATION OF RIVER YAMUNA THE IMPACT OF THE YAMUNA ON LIFE AND LIVING IN DELHI The Yamuna is the most important tributary of the Ganga and its source is the Yamunotri glacier. Important pilgrimage centers like Yamunotri, Paonta Sahib, Mathura, Vrindavan, Bateshwar & Allahabad ( now Prayagraj) are located on the banks of the river. In Indian mythology Yamuna is referred as the daughter of the Sun and sister of Yama. The baby Krishna is believed to have been born on the bank of this river and is said to have freed Yamuna from “Kalia Nag.” The Yamuna’s basin is one of the most fertile and high grain yielding river basins in the country and a boon for agriculture. Apart from the Capital city Delhi, many large urban hubs and cities like Yamuna Nagar,Panipat, Sonepat, Gautam Budh Nagar, Faridabad, Mathura, Agra and Etawah are situated on the river’s banks.The challenge lies in harnessing the river to boost environmentally safe and sustainable activities. RIVER YAMUNA’S IMPORTANCE FOR LIFE AND LIVELIHOODS ➢ Yamuna as a Life Line The river water is used for drinking and agriculture by the basin states of Uttarakhand,* Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi & Rajasthan. The share of each state has been decided by a Memorandum of Understanding signed by all the states in 1994 and is being regulated by the Upper River Yamuna Board (MoWR, RD&GR.) ➢ Ground water recharge: The river helps replenish the water table by recharging it with flood water and performing important ecological functions. It sustains aquatic biodiversity and brings with it nutrient rich alluvial sedimentation full of minerals and organic matter, during the monsoon months.
