Centre proposes setting up new body for river-linking projects in India
-----------------------------
Highlight :
The Centre has set in motion the process of creating the National Interlinking of Rivers Authority (NIRA), an independent autonomous body for planning, investigation, financing and the
implementation of the river interlinking projects in the country.
====================
MY TAKE :
Water Wars ? [ 08 APRIL 2016 ]
Extract :
# Center will implement " River Interlinking " Project by 2025 , and for this, it will not require permission of any State
# Make " Water Conservation / Usage " , a CENTRAL SUBJECT in our Constitution . Remove it from the list of STATE SUBJECTS
* Declare all existing sources of water ( Rivers and Lakes ) , as
National Resources belonging to entire Nation and not to the
particular State where these are located
* Make it Center's responsibility to decide which State shall use how
much of each of these resource ( allocation / rationing )
* Center will also be responsible for developing of future resources
by digging lakes & ponds / building dams / interlinking rivers &
lakes etc
Use MNREGA funds for creating such assets
