From Director General’s Desk

I am placing the quarterly issue of “Jal

Vikas- July 2020” of NWDA with pleasure as the magazine was prepared amidst lot of challenges especially due to Covid-19 outbreak. The reporting

period of the issue was from 01st April to 30th June 2020. The in-house bulletin gives a recap of the

functions of NWDA and accomplished tasks particularly with respect to Interlinking of Rivers (ILR) Programme, Department of Water

Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation (DoWR,RD&GR), Ministry of Jal

Shakti (MoJS), Government of India. As you know that the key functions of NWDA are to carry out scientific studies and field

investigations and surveys to establish the feasibility of the ILR proposals coming under the Water Resources Development Components of National Perspective Plan (NPP) under

Peninsular and Himalayan Regions and Intra-State Link Projects as suggested by State Governments for optimum conservation and utilization of water resources on sustainable basis and addressing water security of our country. Hence, concerted efforts were made by

NWDA in conducting review meetings for preparation and scrutinization of Detailed Project Reports (DPRs), Feasibility Reports (FRs) and Pre-Feasibility Reports (PFRs) of the ILR

proposals and Revision of Water Balance Studies of River Basins/Sub-Basins.

While looking at the prevailing difficult situation on account of the Covid-19 pandemic, emphasized was given on inducting and using the e-Governance tools such as e-Office; eHRMS; conducting meetings through Video Conferencing (VC); and switching over to Public

Financial Management System (PFMS) and Treasury Single Account (TSA) in NWDA to improve the overall efficiency and transparency in working. As a matter fact, we could

organize many meetings through VC especially on the issues on Clearance of Kosi-Mechi(K-M) Intra- State Link Project, Integration of Parbati-Kalisindh-Chambal (P-K-C) Link Project with Eastern Rajasthan Canal (ERC) Project, holding the meeting of sub-committee for system

studies for identification of most appropriate alternate plan, review inception report on system studies of Mahandi-Godavari link prepared by NIH, prepatory meeting on

implementation of PFMS and TSA in NWDA, Reviewing the Programme and Progress of the works targeted for the year 2020-21 etc.

When flip through the inner pages of the magazine, you will find the technical articles on “Ecological and Environmental Concerns of Connecting Flows” and “Damanganga-

Sabarmati-Chorwad Intra-State Link Project”. In addition to this, you could also view Technical Digest, Water Resources in Media, Glimpses of NWDA, World Environmental Day 2020, and International Yoga Day 2020, Family Corner Articles contributed by NWDA

Fraternity etc. This time we could only provide a "NIL Report" on "ILR in Parliament", since the Parliament Houses of the Government of India could not conduct any sessions due to the

Covid-19 Pandemic and the control measures taken as per the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India.

I take this opportunity to appreciate the efforts putting in by the entire editorial team of Jal Vikas in arranging and assembling the informative articles and bringing the July 2020

issue to a value added one. Our efforts to further improve the Jal Vikas Issues of NWDA will continue with your encouragements and contributions.

Ecological and Environmental Concerns of Connecting Flows

* Dr. R.N. Sankhua

Abstract

Vigorously endorsed as a resplendent grandiose, National River Linking Project (NRLP) is a visible combination of motivated executive aspiration, exponible despatch and legislative response, all conceptualized under the subtle impeding epistle of the eminent

thinkers a century ago, though convoluted with inter-State water-sharing dissonance and assorted social, environmental, ecological, financial and economic concerns. Thrashing

out the problem of lack of irrigation in one region and water logging in others, damage to crops due to drought and pitiable drainage facility, could be managed in the face of depleting and decreasing status of water resources in some regions in the 21st century.

The coordinated national effort that is on in the spirit of federalism in the river interlinking project and the top-down model presumes of near-unison of some states except few

discordant voices. Additionally, there will be several environmental impacts of connecting river flows including submergence of land and forests, aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity, downstream impacts, fisheries, salinity ingress, pollution concentration, groundwater

recharge and increased methane emission from reservoirs. At the backdrop of this, the present paper is an attempt to focus ecological and environmental concerns of connecting

flows of rivers in India with a range of models that agree to use shared datasets, explore definitions of water consumption, and obstinately with proper implementation of needed environmental safeguards in a coordinated manner.

Keywords: Ecological and environmental concerns; National River Linking Project

Exordium of the Concept

Poised with rapid development, urbanization, outdated systems of managing water resources; it is the high time for India to come forward in all-out manner to transform

some essential NRLP projects into a big reality. It is prudent that the NRLP projects are region and requirement specific depending upon the hydrological, geological, topographical and environmental conditions. Successful implementation of ILR largely

looms upon timely release of water from the surplus region to the deficit region. India’s river linking project shows and promises a great concern for water conservation and

optimum use of available water resources and enable availability of water to the fields, villages, towns and industries post a comprehensive scientific assessment even while maintaining environmental purity to combat with both flood and drought simultaneously.

Transferring water would also require huge storage facilities, which have massive

environmental impacts. The interlinking project is set to affect all the ecosystems of the ecological hotspots like Western Ghats, the Gangetic plains, and the Sundarbans by altering the dynamics of water flows. The most visible manifestation of water politics

has been in inter-State river-water disputes. Water being a state subject, the ILR plan further complicates existing water sharing and management problems between the

riparian states. Some of the ILR schemes have international implications, which may create strained relationship with neighbouring countries like Bhutan, Nepal and Bangladesh. In issues of inter-basin transfers, such diversions do indeed cause the

liveliest concerns, often leading to protests and resistance in the exporting region,

sparked by the elemental importance of water for life and the economy (Verghese, 1990). More cardinally, the track record in resettling people displaced by such projects is

abysmal, with careful planning, adverse effects can be minimized or mitigated, and secondary beneficial effects enhanced.

If water transferred from water abundant rivers to water deficit areas, there would be adequate supply for everyone in every part of the country. It also appears to promote

national integration and a fair sharing of the country’s natural water wealth. India’s river linking project shows and promises a great concern for water conservation and optimum use of available water resources. It is expected that properly planned water resource

development and management could alleviate poverty, improve the quality of life, and reduce regional disparities, better law and order situation and manage the integrity of the

natural environment. Environmental Concerns

Encompassing the essential drawbacks about socioeconomic viability,

environmental impacts, displacement and rehabilitation of affected people, the challenge of resource mobilization, geo-political constraints, as well as domestic political dynamics elicit major criticisms.

Regime change of rivers, aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity, groundwater recharge

and diversion of forest areas and submergence of land leading to deforestation and soil-erosion, possible downstream impacts, salinity ingress, pollution concentration, and increased methane emission from reservoirs are some unpropitious repercussions.

Reconstruction and rehabilitation of huge people due to displacement along with submergence of large areas of forest, agriculture and non-agriculture land besides

psychological damage due to cultural alienation due to resettlement of local indigenous tribal community cannot be pulled out of.

River linking may bring consequential changes in the physical and chemical

compositions of the sediment load, river morphology and the shape of the delta formed at

the river basin. Damming India’s East Flowing Rivers to divert their water westwards will curtail downstream flooding and the sediment load may shatter fragile coastal

ecosystems and causing delta erosion. The concerns about sediment management, especially on the Himalayan system loom large. The differential sediment regime defining the flow regimes need to be plugged into the equation when transferring

water from the surplus Himalayan rivers to deficit regions of the southern region of India, which will entail changes in ecosystem structures in both parts.

Ecological Concerns

Some water professionals are doubtful that river diversion may bring significant changes in the physical and chemical compositions of the sediment load, river morphology

and the shape of the delta formed at the river basin. Inter-linking a toxic river with a non-toxic one will have a devastating impact on all our rivers, and consequently, on all human

beings, on fish migration, aquatic biodiversity and wild life.

Some environmentalists have remarked that the water flowing into the sea is not

waste, but a crucial link in the water cycle. With the link broken, the ecological balance of land and oceans, freshwater and sea water, also gets disrupted. Yet even back then,

behind the smiles, is a great trepidation that the diversion of unutilised water from the Brahmaputra (potential of 528.27 BCM) and the Ganges (potential of 526 BCM), providing 85% of the country’s fresh water flow in the dry season, may result into an ecological

setback.

Concluding Remarks

The necessity and feasibility of riverbe seen on case to case basis, with adequate emphasis on easing out federal issues to eke out solutions for the exacerbating scarcities

already existing in resource development and management would be able to alleviate

poverty, improve the quality of life, and reduce regional disparities and to maintain the integrity of the natural environment. It is essential that needed environmental safeguards such as

comprehensive EIA and SIA are properly implemented in a coordinated manner. Therefore, strengthening and expansion of

cooperative efforts among the corelationships through formation of River Basin Authority with legal provisions for implementation of NRLP related to rehabilitation and

appropriate afforestation through adaptive basin management.

Celebration of International Yoga Day 2020

Coinciding with the summer solstice, June 21 is observed as International Yoga Day

(IYD), recognising many benefits of the ancient Indian practice of yoga. The year 2020

marks the 6th IYD. The United Nations theme for this year was “Yoga for Health–Yoga at

Home”, to take into account of the social distancing measures announced by most countries.

The UN proclaimed June 21 as IYD by passing a resolution on December 11, 2014,

during the 69th Session of the General Assembly. At that Session, Hon'ble Prime Minister of

India had said, “Yoga is an invaluable gift from our ancient tradition. Yoga embodies unity

of mind and body, thought and action … a holistic approach that is valuable to our health

and our well-being. Yoga is not just about exercise; it is a way to discover the sense of

oneness with yourself, the world and the nature.” Recognizing the importance of Yoga,

NWDA Fraternity has also come forward to join and showcase that Yoga is not only a

routine exercise but also a way building up sense of oneness with yourself and nature.

4444----Covid-19 -A Repetition of the History of 1918

The Spanish flu or influenza pandemic of February 1918, the deadliest in history, infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide—about one-third of the planet’s

population—and killed an estimated 20 million to 50 million victims, including some 675,000 Americans. The 1918 flu was first observed in Europe, the United States and

parts of Asia before swiftly spreading around the world. Some believe the infected soldiers of World War-I spread the disease to other military camps and then brought it overseas. In April 1919, the flu even disrupted the Paris Peace Conference. The worst horrors were

seen in Philadelphia, where the number of deaths approached 1,000 a day at the pandemic’s peak. By April 1920, the flu pandemic came to an end, as those that

were infected either died or developed immunity. The health officials used a combination of traditional public health practices, such as

quarantine, isolation, and health information campaigns, ordering businesses to open and close on staggered shifts to avoid overcrowding on the subways to control the influenza

epidemic. Along with these measures, modifying personal behaviour was essential to halt the disease's spread. At the same time the Health Department was borrowing inspectors from other city agencies to complete block-by-block surveys for influenza cases, they

recruited laypeople and nongovernmental organizations to increase their surveillance capacity and who could help the city count in its sickness. From the above given notices

and photos, it can be seen that the caring and dress codes used were almost same as that of today's controlling measures and guidelines adopted for the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Government of India is taking all necessary steps to ensure that we are prepared well to face the challenges and threat posed by the growing pandemic of Covid-19

Corona Virus. With active support of the people of India, the Government takes all control measures to contain the spread of the Virus and the most important factor in preventing the spread locally is to empower the citizens with the right information and taking

precautions as per the advisories being issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs; Ministry of Health & Family Welfare; and concerned State Governments of India. Jancy Vijayan, Director (MDU), NWDA, New Delhi
