摘要：Summary The increasing population and large scale growth with the development of modern science and technology has indicated very high stress on water sector in Rajasthan in India. Availability of water and uniformity of rainfall distribution is changing day by day due to shifting of monsoon in Rajasthan. The spatial and temporal variations in the rainfall in different river basins in Rajasthan are drastic due to which flood situation arises in the tributaries of Chambal river basin every year. Simultaneously on the other hand drought situation arises in the other different places in the most of the river basins which are also under dark zone. In totality natural water resources are also limited in Rajasthan so there is an urgent need for its proper planning, development and management of the available water duly taking care of environmental, ecological, socio-economic aspects and their inter-relationships. Annual surplus water of about 1437 MCM in the river Chambal is going waste and ultimately reaches to sea after creating flood situations in various places in India including Rajasthan, while on the other hand 1077 MCM water is a requirement in the four other basins in Rajasthan i.e. Banas, Banganga, Gambhir and Parbati at 75% dependability. Interlinking and water transfer from Chambal to these four river basins is the prime solution for which 372km link channel including 9km tunnel of design capacity of 300cumec with 64m lift is required.
