DffiECTORATE OF INFORMATION & PUBLICITY, M. P. "FOREWORD This brochure is intended to give a bird's eye-view of the historical back­ ground of State Irrigation in the four .constituent units of the State and the general progress of the works during the· first plan . and up-to-date in the second plan. 'J;'he .State possesses ·immense

water resources. in . her rivers. How- ever, at the commencement of the .:f'irst Five-Year Plan the total quantity ·of ·water uti1ised for irrigation in the State was only about 3 miJlion acre ft., which 'is less than ·two per cent of the normal run-off. The area irrigated .. was 22 lakh acres (comprising 8.8 Jakh acres by the State works and 13.2 Iakh acres by private sources) which cons­ _tituted a mere six per cent of the State's cultivated area. As against this the areas irrigated in some of the other States were 37.1 per cent in Punjab, 35.5 per cent in Madras, and 29.8 per · cent in . State Irrigation in the districts of Madhya Pradesh dates back almost to the start of this century but there was a long hiatus in its activities from 1930 to the start of the first plan. In the districts the irrigation works were confined to the Gwalior region and were constructed mainly in the two decades preceding the second world war. Vindhya Pradesh and Bhopal had hardly any state irrigation when the first plan started. It was with this background that the First Five-Year Plan was launched in the four con­ stituent units of Madhya Pradesh. A good part of the plan period, however, had to be devoted to necessary detailed surveys and investigations before the projects could be actually taken in hand. Similar was the case with the second plan schemes whose progress was further adversely affected by the acute shortage of technical personnel and by the State's reorganisation. In spite of these major bottlenecks, Government's efforts to make agriculture independent of the vagaries of the weather made substantial progress during the eight years since the commencement of the first plan. The total irrigation potential (und,er State works) has grown from about 10 lakh acres to 11.5 lakh acres. This is expected to be increased by a further 1,30,000 acres in the next two years. The State is expected to spend about Rs. 35 crores, i.e., Rs. 15 crores on Major, Medium and Minor Irrigation Projects and Rs. 20 crores on the Chambal Scheme which amounts to about 20 per cent of the State's total outlay on the second plan. This may be compared with an expendi­ ture of Rs. 10.00 crore, inclusive of the Chambal Project, incurred on irrigation works during the first plan period. This impressive increase in the working capacity of the State in the field of Irrigation enables us to plan on a much bigger and bolder scale for the future. Madhya Pradesh is among the important granaries of the country and it has been Government's endeavour not only to maintain this Status but to fully harness the State's potentialities in order that the State may continue to make her contribution in the battle of food in ever­ increasing measure. The brochure sets out in brief the efforts being made in the sphere of irrigation. S. L. TIWARI 6 Minister for P.W.D., M.P. IRRIGATION IN MADHYA PRADESH
