Path to Trilokinath. Tempera on Canvas. Nicholas Roerich Museum, New York, USA.’ November 2016 Material from this publication can be used, with acknowledgment to the source. Introduction The lifelines of Himalayas A massive collision between two tectonic plates of the Indian and Eurasian land masses about 50 to 70 million years ago led to the formation of the youngest and tallest mountain ranges, the Himalayas. Once the Himalayas started to rise, a southward drainage developed which subsequently controlled the climate of the newly formed continent, and there started the season of monsoon as well. The river systems of the Himalayas thus developed because of rains and melting snow. The newly formed rivers were like sheets of water flowing towards the fore-deep carrying whatever came in their way. Once the rivers reached the plains their gradients became lesser, their hydraulics changed and they started to deposit their sediment (Priyadarshi, 2016). The river is a defining feature of a mountain eco-system. And if that ecosystem is the Himalayas then this makes the rivers originating here special for several reasons. Their origin and source to start with, which includes glaciers and snow bound peaks; their length and size, and the area they cover is larger than most peninsular rivers; their rapid, high velocity, meandering flow which is constantly shaping the young and malleable Himalayan valleys; their propensity to carry silt and form rich plains to facilitate a fertile agriculture downstream is another unique feature.

  • Integrated Operation of the Beas-Sutlej System
    Siidhan~, Vol. 8, Part 2, March 1985, pp. 207-221 © Printed in India. Integrated operation of the Beas-Sutlej system P S RAO* and S RAMASESHANt *Indian Institute of Management, Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore 560076, India )'Civil Engineering Department, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur 208 016, India Abstract. The study deals with the integrated operation of the Beas and Sutlej link, a complex system. It utilizes the methodology developed in an earlier paper for reservoir operation. The results show the definite advantages of conjunctive use and carry over storage. The results also show that it is advantageous to divert as much water from the Beas to the Sutlej as possible. Keywords. Integrated reservoir operation; conjunctive use. 1. Introduction To study the conventional operation of a reservoir system in a multiobjective framework in order to evaluate the trade-offs between irrigation and power implied by past decisions, a case study of the Bhakra reservoir was undertaken. This study demonstrates the methodology and procedures of multi-objective analysis in an integrated framework. 2. System description 2.1 The Beas-Sutlej system The Beas river originates in the lower ranges of the Shiwaliks. The catchment area of the river upstream of Pong, where a storage dam has just been completed is 12,561 km 2. The average rainfall in the catchment is 1,778 mm. For a mean year the discharge at the Mahdi plain varies from 152cumecs in the dry season to 1,830cumecs during the monsoon, with an annual average run-off of 16,763 m cum. For a dependable year, the run-off is 12,835 mcum.

Hydro power development is the key engine to the economic growth of the State of Himachal Pradesh. The State of Himachal Pradesh has an estimated Hydro Potential of 27,436 MW out of which 24,000 MW has been assessed as harness able while the Government of Himachal Pradesh has decided to forgo balance potential in lieu of safe guarding the environment and to maintain ecological as well as protect various social concerns. Out of the total harness able potential of about 24,000 MW, a potential to the tune of 20,912 MW already stands allotted under various sectors. The State has been accelerating the pace of Hydropower development through the active involvement of both the public and private sectors. A potential of about 10,596.27 MW has already been harnessed so far under various sectors. Though the private sector participation in terms of investments in this sector has been encouraging but the smaller projects has been reserved for investors from Himachal Pradesh only (up to 2 MW) and preference will be given for projects up to 5 MW. Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojna (DDUGJY) The Ministry of Power, Government of India launched Deendayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojna (DDUGJY) on 3rd December, 2014 for the electrification of rural households, separation of agriculture and non-agriculture feeders, strengthening and augmentation of Sub-Transmission and Distribution (ST & D) infrastructure in rural areas, including metering at distribution transformers, feeders and consumers end.

  • Himachal Pradesh
    Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Context Watershed protection and development have gained tremendous importance and relevance in India over the past few years. This has been due to the increasing realization of the alarming state of India’s natural resources – land, water and forest, which have witnessed rapid degradation as a result of the immense pressures that have been put on them by the country’s growing human and livestock population. Dry lands, for instance, which account for almost two-thirds of India’s total cultivated land, are among the most environmentally fragile lands. These supports a large number of India’s poor and contribute a significant proportion of the country’s agricultural output (Ninan and Lakshmikanthamma, 1994). Owing to the intensification of agriculture, extension of cultivation to marginal lands, perverse incentives that encourage the over-exploitation of natural resources, rapid degradation of forest resources, overgrazing and diminishing common lands, much of these lands are in various stages of degradation. According to an estimate made by the National Commission on Agriculture, 175 million hectares of land in India is under some form of degradation or the other (Planning Commission, 2002). This is easily visible in the form of increased soil erosion, declining groundwater tables, decrease in drinking water viability, desertification, etc. in different parts across the country (Ninan & Lakshmikanthamma, 1994). Furthermore, frequent occurrences of either floods or droughts are evidence of improper land use in the catchments, and of the inadequate conservation of forests (MoA, 2002). Since more than two-third's of India’s one billion-strong population depends heavily on the primary sector – agriculture and forestry – to meet their daily survival needs, this degradation of the natural resource base has thus seriously impacted the well being and development of the majority of the country’s population, especially the poor, who depend on these resources the most.
