In Madhya Pradesh, out of 313 blocks, 23 blocks extended to over exploited category, 09 blocks are in critical stage and 57 blocks are in semi critical stage (MP Dynamic Ground Water Assessment, 2015). As per rules of CGWB, the areas where the water level could not recuperated upto 3m depth after the monsoon K e yw or ds season, will essential artificial recharge. The solution lies in harvesting rainwater in farmers‟ field which are kept or left fallow for one reason or another. Though, all Groundwater these fields may not be good enough to recharge groundwater like percolation tanks recharge, Kharif but transfer water well below at least @4 mm/day even in clayey soils. So, to decide fallow, Priority which area is to be taken first in present study a method of identification of priority is Article Info proposed. Four basic criteria to decide the priority namely, amount of annual rainfall, the soil type, stage of ground water development stage and extent of kharif fallow.

The physical and chemical parameters were analyzed as per APHA, revealed that there were fewer variations in the physicochemical parameters and results received through the entire one year of study showed that the status of water quality is quite normal and within the permissible limit as mentioned with ISI.Moreover, according to the findings of this research and their comparison with the national and international water quality guidelines/standards, it could be said that the water quality of Punasa dam during the study period was acceptable. However, due to the changes occurred in nitrate and phosphorus and extensive development of eutrophication problem, accurate and continuous evaluation of water quality in this reservoir is deemed necessary.

Indira Sagar dam (major irrigation project) which is also commonly known as Gosi Khurd dam is constructed on Wainganga River, a major tributary of Godavari River near Pauni in Bhandara district in the state of Maharashtra in India. The fish fauna of Indira Sagar dam is yet not been documented. The present work was undertaken to study fish biodiversity and to present a comprehensive report on the diversity and threats to the fish fauna of the Indira Sagar dam. The survey and documentation was carried out during January, 2013 to March, 2015. A total of, 54 fish species under 10 orders, 20 families and 42 genera were recorded from the Indira Sagar dam. The family Cyprinidae has the highest number of fish species (24) followed by Channidae (4), Bagridae (3), Siluridae, Schilbeidae, Ambassidae and Mastacembelidae were represented by two species each and 13 other families with one fish species each. The present study revealed that, as per IUCN Red List criteria, out of the 54 fish species, 04 species belong to the Near Threatened (NT), 01 to the Vulnerable (VU), 01 to the Endangered (EN) category, 04 species under Data Deficient category (DD), one species Not Evaluated (NE) and 33 species under Least Concerned (LC) category.
