  • Planning and Sustainable Development in Indian Context 105
    Unit III The word ‘planning’ is not new to you as it is a part of everyday usage. You must have used Chapter 9 it with reference to preparation for your examination or visit to a hill station. It involves the process of thinking, formulation of a scheme or programme and implementation of a set of actions to achieve some goal. Though it is a very broad term, in this chapter, it has been used with reference to the process of economic development. It is, thus different from the traditional hit-and-miss methods by PLANNING AND On 1 January 2015, the NITI Aayog was formed. India adopted centralised planning SUSTAINABLE after Independence, but subsequently, it graduated into decentralised multi-level DEVELOPMENT IN planning. The responsibility of plan formulation was with the Planning Comminssion at the INDIAN CONTEXT Centre, State and district levels. But on 1 January 2015, the Planning Commision was replaced by the NITI Aayog. NITI Aayog has been set up with the objective of involving the states in economic policy making for India for providing strategic and technical advice to the Central and State governments. which reforms and reconstruction are often undertaken. Generally, there are two approaches to planning, i.e., sectoral planning and regional planning. Sectoral planning means formulation and implementation of the sets of schemes or programmes aimed at development of various sectors of the economy, such as agriculture, irrigation, manufacturing, power, construction, transport, communication, social infrastructure and services. There is no uniform economic development over space in any country. Some areas are more developed and some lag behind.

  • Evaluation of Heavy Metal Contamination in Indira Gandhi Canal Water, Sri-Ganganagar, India
    SRJIS/BIMONTHLY/DR. RACHNA MIDHA (5023-5035) EVALUATION OF HEAVY METAL CONTAMINATION IN INDIRA GANDHI CANAL WATER, SRI-GANGANAGAR, INDIA Rachna Midha, Ph. D. Sri Ganganagar (Rajasthan) Abstract The Indira Gandhi canal is the lifeline of Rajasthan which carries drinking and irrigation water from Harike barrage in Punjab to Rajasthan, it supplies water to 15 districts of Rajasthan. This paper discuss an integrated approach of heavy metal pollution discharged from various industries and municipal authorities. the water quality of the wetland has been studied with reference to various toxic metals. The metals analyzed include lead (Pb), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni) and Arsenic (As). The quality of water has drastically deteriorated due to the mixing of the heavy metals. Most of the metal ions were in higher concentration compared to the international standards. It has been observed that the quality of water is not safe for various aquatic and even unfit for human drinking and irrigation purposes, therefore, necessary conservation and management measures should be taken to improve the deteriorating water quality of this globally recognized wetland. Scholarly Research Journal's is licensed Based on a work at www.srjis.com Inroduction: A Canal is defined as a large artificial stream of water emptying into its fed areas. Canal and streams drain water that falls in down-land areas. Moving water, dilutes and decomposes pollutants more rapidly than standing water, but many rivers, streams and canals are significantly polluted all around the world (Bailey 2002). A primary reason for this is that all three major sources of pollution (industry, agriculture and domestic) are concentrated along the running water streams.

  • Indira Gandhi Canal Project Environment and Changing Scenario of Western Rajasthan: a Case Study
    International Journal of Academic Research and Development International Journal of Academic Research and Development ISSN: 2455-4197 Impact Factor: RJIF 5.22 www.academicsjournal.com Volume 3; Issue 4; July 2018; Page No. 15-19 Indira Gandhi canal project environment and changing scenario of western Rajasthan: A case Study Ajaz Hussain, Mohammad Tayyab, Asif* Department of Geography, Jamia Millia Islamia, Jamia Nagar, New Delhi, India Abstract In the Western part of Rajasthan state lies the extensive Thar Desert, which is covered in rolling dunes for almost its whole expense. The annual precipitation on an average in between 200 -300 mm. The Indira Gandhi Canal Project (IGCP) has been constructed in the North-Western part of the state of Rajasthan covering a part of Thar Desert districts i.e. Ganganagar, Churu, Hanaumangarh, Bikaner, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer and Barmer. It is a multidisciplinary irrigation cum area development project aiming to do desertify and transform desert waste land into agriculturally production area. The project objectives include drought proofing, providing drinking water, improvement in environment, afforestation, generating employment, rehabilitation, development and protection of animal wealth, greenification, increase of tillable land, road construction etc. The Indira Gandhi Canal has been transforming the Western part of Rajasthan lither to, covered with vast sand dunes into a land of grainary and greenery. Crops of wheat. Mustard, paddy, groundnuts, sugarcane and cotton etc. flourish with available canal irrigation where nothing but sand rules the root for the year. The main aim of the present work is to highlight how Indira Gandhi Canal Project become the boon for Western Rajasthan.

Publishing Rights @ MANU—ICMANU and ESSENCE—IJERC. A B S T R A C T The Indira Gandhi Nahar Project (IGNP) is a multi-purpose project which was built to provide fresh water to semi-arid regions of Western Rajasthan and to rejuvenate the Thar region, and it has many positive socioeconomic impacts. IGNP irrigation project has been a boon for economic upliftment of the people in the area and has turned drought affected area into a green bowl. However, the environmental impacts of this new canal water supply have mainly been negative. The economic boon gave rise to many environmental implications such as water logging, deterioration in quality, soil salinity, siltation of canal by sand, water born diseases. The xeric biodiversity of the region is also under threat, to the point of extinction of some species. Occurrence of water logging conditions in command areas and emerging scenario of ground water drought conditions in other parts, calls for judicious management of available water resources.
