Answer:

There are several hurdles to the implementation of waterways projects including

•very high siltation in the river, causing shallow water that hinders the movement of boat.

•Desiltation is a mommoth project and requires a lot of capital

•Less population density in the vicinity of the river basin causing it a time taking exercise and costly for the mainlanders or the ppl residing in city

•Lack of coordination between the state govts and apathy toward these projects

• Sanctity of the river might be at sack according to religious ppl, as it will limit the religious activities in river and its basin..

Hope to got the multidimensional aspects which is hindering the inland waterways projects
