  • A STUDY on BALANCING the SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT and EXCAVATION of RIVERBEDS for the PURPOSE of CONSTRUCTION and DEVELOPMENT of the REGION Dr
    © 2019 JETIR May 2019, Volume 6, Issue 5 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) A STUDY ON BALANCING THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AND EXCAVATION OF RIVERBEDS FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONSTRUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE REGION Dr. Neelam Rai Assistant Professor, Jalpaiguri Law College Abstract Rivers are the source of water and life. Since the ancient period we have seen the world’s best civilizations being flourished and prospered near the rivers. Humans have been dependant on the rivers for not only fresh waters used for drinking but also for other purposes like agriculture, irrigation, washing and also for religious purposes. With the dawn of civilization not only the water from the rivers but also the riverbeds and riverbanks are used by the humans. However, with the wake of the urbanization, the landmasses of the rivers especially the sand, gravel, stones and boulders are being mined for various purposes like building homes, roads, transportation, renovation of buildings, construction of dams etc. This excavation or mining of the materials from the riverbeds is on unprecedented rise for one reason or the other as these materials are the important source for all forms of construction. Thus, the present paper is an attempt to study the balance between uses of riverbeds, its mining or excavations keeping in point of view the sustainability of the said materials so that development of the region can be done without causing any serious harm to the environment. The paper also studies the laws which are applicable to govern these issues. It also attempts at finding a way of maintaining a balance between preserving the natural resources which riverbeds provide us and its use for developing the regions.
