| Interlinking of Rivers |
The Supreme Court in its order dated 27.2.2012 has directed the Union of India and particularly Ministry of Water Resources to forthwith constitute a committee to be called ‘ Special Committee for Inter-linking of Rivers’.
The Supreme Court in the order mentioned that “time is a very material factor in the effective execution of the Interlinking of Rivers project. As pointed out in the Report by NCAER and by the Standing Committee, the delay has adversely affected the financial benefits that could have accrued to the concerned parties and the people at large and is in fact now putting a financial strain on all concerned”
The Certified copy of the Supreme Court order dated 27.2.2012, received in the Ministry on 20.3.2012, is under examination for appropriate action.
The initial cost of the Inter Linking projects assessed at prefeasibility stage was Rs.5.60 Lakh crore at 2002 Price Level. The Cost of individual project including the cost of land required to be acquired for project can be finalised only after completion of Detailed Project Report.
This information was given by the Minister of State for Water Resources & Minority Affairs Shri Vincent H. Pala in a written reply to a question in Rajya Sabha today.
