Answers
Answer:
The Narmada River, also called the Rewa and previously also known as Nerbudda,[2] is a river in central India after the Godavari, and the Krishna. It is also known as "Life Line of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh" for its huge contribution to the state of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh in many ways. Narmada rises from Amarkantak Plateau near Anuppur district. It forms the traditional boundary between North Indiaand South India and flows westwards over a length of 1,312 km (815.2 mi) before draining through the Gulf of Kbhat into the Arabian Sea, 30 km (18.6 mi) west of Bharuch city of Gujarat
Answer:
Narmada is the fifth largest river in India and largest West flowing river of the Indian Peninsula. Its annual flow approximates to the combined flow of the rivers of Sutlej, Beas and Ravi. Originating from the Maikala ranges at Amarkantak in Madhya Pradesh, it flows Westwards over a length of about 1312 km, before draining into the Gulf of Cambay, 50 km. West of Bharuch City. The first 1077 km. Stretch is in Madhya Pradesh and the next 35 km. Stretch forms the boundary between the States of Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. Again, the next 39 km. Forms the boundary between Maharashtra and Gujarat and the last stretch of 161 km. lies in Gujarat.
The Basin area of this river is about 1 lac sq. km. The utilisation of this river basin, however, is hardly about 4%. Most of the water of this peninsula river goes into sea. Inspite of the huge potential, there was hardly any development of the Narmada water resources prior to independence.
In 1946, the then Government of Central Provinces and Berar and the then Government of Bombay requested the Central Waterways, Irrigation and Navigation Commission (CWINC) to take up investigations on the Narmada river system from basin wise development of the river with flood control, irrigation, power and extension of navigation as the objectives in view. The study commenced in 1947 and most of the sites were inspected by engineers and geologists who recommended detailed investigation for seven projects. Thereafter in 1948, the Central Ministry of Works, Mines & Power appointed an Ad-hoc Committee headed by Shri A N Khosla, Chairman, CWINC to study the projects and to recommend the priorities. This Ad-hoc Committee recommended as an initial step detailed investigations for the following projects keeping in view the availability of men, materials and resources:
