Against this backdrop, the Mayurakshi Irrigation Project was initiated in 1948 with Mayurakshi as principal river and its four main tributaries namely Brahmani, Dwarka, Bakreswar and Kopai. This project aimed to supply water for irrigation to the agricultural field of the command area at the time of requirement and assured irrigation was the main agenda of this project’s commencement. In this paper the author has tried to find out the current status of the timely irrigation water supply which was the main purpose of initiation of this project. Keywords: Irrigation Projects, Regulatory Measures, Command Area, Assured Irrigation. Introduction In the post-independence period, India has shown accelerating trend in growth of irrigation projects. Following USA and other advanced economies of the time, independent India encouraged irrigation projects to ensure assured irrigation, flood control, generation of hydroelectricity. Then Prime Minister Jawhar Lal Neheru entitled the dams as temples of modern India. Mayurakshi Irrigation Project (MIP) was one of them and was Pramila Nandi launched in 1948 to serve water to the thirsty agricultural lands of one of Research Scholar, the driest district of West Bengal i.e.

Corresponding Author: Chanchal Kumar Mukherjee Abstract: Water, food, energy and the environment have got intertwined in a spiral of decline and degradation .The challenge is to slow the spin and reverse the direction. The world’s thirst for water is likely to become one of the most pressing issues of the 21st century. Rapid pace of industrialization, concurrent growth of urbanization, need and change of life style of ever expanding population have the potential to damage the environment and degrade the available surface water sources. Since there has been growing concern about pollution in Talcher area due to industrial, mining and other anthropogenic activities, Central Pollution Control Board and Ministry of Environment & Forests have identified this zone as one of the hot spots in respect of pollution hazards. The present investigation deals with a comparative study of physico-chemical characteristics of water samples taken from four different sampling locations situated near the industrial zone of Talcher near Brahmani basin. The parameters were constantly monitored like pH, conductivity, hardness, DO, BOD, COD, TDS, TSS, Phosphate, Sulphate, Nitrate, Chloride etc.

Bramha2, A.K. Mohanty2, T.K. Bastia1, D. Behera1 & P. Rath1* 1 *School of Applied Sciences, Department of Chemistry, KIIT University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha. 2Radiological Safety and Environmental Group, Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR), Department of Atomic Energy, Govt. of India, Kalpakkam-603 102, Tamil Nadu, India. *[E-Mail: [email protected]; [email protected]] Received 04 July 2014; revised 11 September 2014 Dynamics of heavy metals such as Fe, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cr, Pb and Cd in surface water of Brahmani river-estuarine system were studied taking 25 samples from different sampling locations along the complete stretch. Irrespective of season, Fe was most abundant in both river (avg. 260.15 µg / l ) and estuarine (avg. 119.9µg / l) samples, whereas Cd (avg. 1.59 µg / l) and Co (avg.1.55µg / l) were the lowest in the river and estuarine samples respectively. The average concentrations of all the dissolved metals were much higher than the world river average. The average concentrations Cr and Cd for the river were above the criteria of maximum concentration (CMC) as prescribed by US Environmental Protection Agency. Results of factor analyses revealed that anthropogenic contributions were the source for the increase in dissolved metal concentrations. Canonical discriminate function indicated that it was moderately successful in discriminating the groups as predicted. River Brahmani with an annual discharge of 18.58 x 10 m carries 6.907 x 10 tons of total heavy metals into Bay of Bengal and the calculated rate of erosion in the basin is 176.582 kg km year.
