The study investigated water management issues of four river basins: the Palar, the Sabarmati, and the Shekhawati in Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, and Rajasthan respectively as well as the Tinau in Nepal that joins the West Rapti in Uttar Pradesh. Water management challenges in the Noyyal and the Bhavani basins of Tamil Nadu were also investigated. In the first three basins, water scarcity is an increasingly grim reality. The organizations and their principal investigators have extensive experience in analysing water management issues in scarcity situations. The fourth river basin was selected to capture the physical diversity of a Himalayan river and to analyse the water management concerns in an area of Nepal and India that is ostensibly rich in water resources but is beginning to confront a situation of stress. Though collaborative, the study implementation did not provide scope for the kind of process envisaged in the design. As such, methodological differences are evident. While studies in India followed the social science research model, the study on the Tinau used an ethno-ecological approach. The collaborative exercise, however, did include series of meetings and sharing of research tools as well as ideas. Three major events were the April 1998 Writing Workshop in Kathmandu, the January 1999 Chennai Meeting and the May 1999 Ahmedabad Workshop where the findings of the study were reviewed, analysed and critiqued. There were regular interactions via email as well as joint field visits.

Mathur CHAPTER 8 Ways Forward 301 PREFACE PREFACE From the Ganga in the north to the Cauvery in the south, rivers of South Asia have carried the political, economic and social history of the region with them. As they flow from the highland ranges of the Himalaya, Western Ghats or the Aravallis towards the Bay of Bengal or Arabian Sea, these rivers have become intertwined with the hopes and aspirations of the people who live in their basins. Today, water systems in the region are under stress. Growing demands from agriculture, industry and urban growth stretch available supplies while pollution undermines the quality of the resource base. Addressing these problems will require a level of understanding and management far beyond that needed during the entire previous history of water In many cases, development. Building the institutions and scientific understanding essential to enable local management management represents one of the most important challenges facing the region. In seems to be many ways, this challenge is one of understanding social change and its dynamics. Approaches to it stem from concepts – either implicit or explicit – regarding the role approached as a of different groups within society and of the state and also why individuals and small-scale version groups behave the way they do. These underlying concepts, and the differing sets of of larger levels of assumptions social actors make based upon them, are rarely explicit in debates over organization. water management. The set of papers in this volume represent an initial effort to clarify key elements in debates over the role of decentralized, “local” institutions and the participatory processes necessary to initiate effective water management. “Local,” “participatory” approaches to water management are often proposed as alternatives to large scale centralized initiatives managed by the State. While centralized State initiatives draw on a long history of water resources development, relatively few data exist on the nature and limitations of more localized approaches. In addition, the terms “local” and “participatory” are vague. What “local” and “participatory” mean is unclear both in terms of physical scale and the social processes involved. In many cases, local management seems to be approached as simply a small-scale version of larger levels of organization. Local management organizations are expected to take on a similar array of functions (though scaled down and requiring less technical expertise) as their larger State cousins and are even characterized as operating through a similar analytical decision-making process. Where scale is concerned, they are intended to take responsibility for a hydrologic unit or water delivery system (aquifer, river basin, irrigation system or municipal supply facility). This “local” hydrologic unit or system is seen as a single element among an array of other similar local elements that are governed at some ultimate level by the State.

  • Integrating 1D-2D Hydrodynamic Model for Sabarmati Upper River Basin with Special Reference to Ahmedabad City Area
    1 INTEGRATING 1D-2D HYDRODYNAMIC MODEL FOR SABARMATI UPPER RIVER BASIN WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO AHMEDABAD CITY AREA. Sejal Chandel ˡ, Dr. Suvarna Shah² ˡ PG Student, Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Technology and Engineering , The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, Vadodara, Gujarat, India ²Associate Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Technology and Engineering ,The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, Vadodara, Gujarat, India [email protected] [email protected] Abstract In recent study, Gujarat has become one of the India’s most urbanized state, causing severe flash flooding. The Sabarmati river is one of the major west-flowing rivers in India and biggest river of north Gujarat. Urbanization should meet the population’s need by enlargement of paved areas, which has unusually changed the catchment’s hydrological and hydraulic characteristic. Therefore, the frequency of flash flooding in Sabarmati river has been increased. The Sabarmati river basin experienced eight times devastating flooding condition between 1972 to 2020.Among which July 2017 flooding event breakdown a 112 years old record of 1905. The Dharoi dam and Wasna barrage on Sabarmati river and surrounding district Kheda, Mehsana, Gandhinagar, Ahmedabad received a huge rainfall caused anomalous inflow to tributary which forced the dam authorities to release huge discharge in short duration. The Sabarmati riverfront of Ahmedabad had been going under water for five days due incessant rainfall in the city that leads to swelling of the Sabarmati River in 2017. In order to determine extent of Inundation, Hydrodynamic Model HEC-RAS(5.0.6) with Arc GIS was used. Various scenarios were run to study the impact of simulation on flood inundation(with & without riverfront project).The simulated flood depths have been compared with actual depths obtained at gauging station, which were collected from Government authorities.

Ans (c) Explanation: • Days are hot, and during the hot season, noon temperatures of over 100°F. are quite frequent. When night falls the clear sky which promotes intense heating during the day also causes rapid radiation in the night. Temperatures drop to well below 50°F. and night frosts are not uncommon at this time of the year. This extreme diurnal range of temperature is another characteristic feature of the Sudan type of climate. • The savanna, particularly in Africa, is the home of wild animals. It is known as the ‘big game country. • The leaf and grass-eating animals include the zebra, antelope, giraffe, deer, gazelle, elephant and okapi. • Many are well camouflaged species and their presence amongst the tall greenish-brown grass cannot be easily detected. The giraffe with such a long neck can locate its enemies a great distance away, while the elephant is so huge and strong that few animals will venture to come near it. It is well equipped will tusks and trunk for defence. • The carnivorous animals like the lion, tiger, leopard, hyaena, panther, jaguar, jackal, lynx and puma have powerful jaws and teeth for attacking other animals. 4.

  • Irrigation Projects of Tamil Nadu from 2001-2021
    IRRIGATION PROJECTS OF TAMIL NADU FROM 2001-2021 NAME – VRINDA GUPTA INSTITUTION – K.R. MANGALAM UNIVERSITY 1 ABSTRACT From the ancient times water is always most important for agriculture purpose for growing crops. Since thousand years, humans have relied on agriculture to feed their communities and they have needed irrigation to water their crops. Irrigation includes artificially applying water to the land to enhance the growing of crops. Over the years, irrigation has come in many different forms in countries all over the world. Irrigation projects involves hydraulic structures which collect, convey and deliver water to those areas on which crops are grown. Irrigation projects unit may starts from a small farm unit to those serving extensive areas of millions of hectares. Irrigation projects consist of two types first a small irrigation project and second a large irrigation project. Small irrigation project includes a low diversion or an inexpensive pumping plant along with small channels and some minor control structures. Large irrigation project includes a huge dam, a large storage reservoir, hundreds kilometers of canals, branches and distributaries, control structures and other works. In this paper we discussing about irrigation plan of Tamil Nadu from 2001-2021. INTRODUCTION Water is the important or elixir of life, a precious gift of nature to humans and millions of other species living on the earth. It is hard to find in most part of the world. 4% of India’s land area in Tamil Nadu and inhabited by 6% of India’s population but water resources in India is only 2.5%. In Tamil Nadu, water is a serious limiting factor for agriculture growth which leads to irrigation reduces risk in farming, increases crop productivity, provides higher employment opportunities to the rural areas and increases farmer income.

Gandhi. at Nayan PrintiDI Press. Ahmedabad-t. FOREWORD The Census data has always been considered as indispensable for day to day administration. It is increasingly being considered now as the foundation stone of all regional planning. The publication of this series of District Census Handbooks wherein census statistics is made available for smaller territorial units is, therefore, a significant occasion for it fills many existing _gaps in statistics at the lower levels. Many interesting details have been revealed by the Census 1961 and I hope persons engaged in the administration of the State and public in general will appreciate the value and the effort that has gone into the production of such a standard book of reference. I congratulate the Superintendent of Census Operations, Rajasthan, Shri C. S. Gupta I. A. S. and his colleagues who have done a good job with skill and perseverence. B. MEHTA JAIPUR. Chief Secretary 1st March. 1966. to the Government of Rajasthan. iii PREFACE The District Census Handbooks. to which series the present volume belongs. are the gifts of the Census of India and were fIrst introduced in 1951. The 1961 series of District Census Handbooks are more elaborate than their counter-part in 1951 and present all important census data alongwith such other basic information as is very relevant for an understanding of the district. A wide variety of information which the Census 1961 collected has already been released in several parts as mentioned elsewhere in this book.

I would like to thank WWF and all consortium partners (CARE, NTNC, and FECOFUN) for submitting the updated M&E Plan. The revised M&E Plan is consistent with the approved Annual Work Plan and the Program Description of the Cooperative Agreement (CA). This updated M&E has added/revised/updated targets to systematically align additional earthquake recovery funding added into the award through 8th modification of Hariyo Ban award to WWF to address very unexpected and burning issues, primarily in four Hariyo Ban program districts (Gorkha, Dhading, Rasuwa and Nuwakot) and partly in other districts, due to recent earthquake and associated climatic/environmental challenges. This updated M&E Plan, including its added/revised/updated indicators and targets, will have very good programmatic meaning for the program’s overall performance monitoring process in the future.
