Multipurpose Project # 1. Damodar Valley Project:
Prototype of USA’s Tennessee Valley Authority, DVC project was one of the very few composite projects, consisting of irrigation, flood protection measures, hydel power projects etc. Since its inception in 1948, this project was more or less responsible for economic revival of the area.
Multipurpose Project # 2. Bhakra-Nangal Project:
The most ambitious project to convert large barren semi-arid tracts of North West India into lush green fertile agricultural field, Bhakra-Nangal project was one of the largest multipurpose Indian projects, constructed over the river Sutlej.
Broadly, the entire project may be divided into two separate divisions:
The Bhakra Dam:
This project has the capacity to store more than 10,000 million m3water. This lake is popularly known as Govind-Sagar.
The Nangal Dam:
Constructed 13 km. downstream of Bhakra. Any irregularities caused by Bhakra dam is rectified here and stability of channel in maintained. The combined length of Bhakra-Nangal Canal exceeds 1,000 kms. Apart from the two main Dams storage, this project comprises of several other hydel projects at places of Ganguwal, Kotla with total installed capacity of over 1500 M.W. number of irrigation canals like the Bhakra Canal, Nangal Canal, Bist Doab Canal, Narvana Canal etc. Nearly almost all of Punjab, large areas of Haryana and Rajasthan are benefited directly by the Bhakra-Nangal multipurpose project.
Multipurpose Project # 3. The Hirakud Project:
Mahanadi is the lifeline of Orissa. It enters Orissa from the highland of Naraj. This rapid fall from considerable height provoked planners to erect this monumental dam at Hirakud.
Multipurpose Project # 4. The Tungabhadra Project:
To facilitate power and irrigation to the extensive tract of Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, Tungabhadra project was launched.
Multipurpose Project # 5. The Kosi Project:
Kosi, the most unpredictable river in Bihar, was responsible for permanent recurrence of annual flood in middle Ganga plain. This feeble, apparently small river, debouches from Nepal Himalaya, increasing in vigour and intensity rapidly during the rainy season. The principal object of this project was to control the annual flood, followed, by power generation and irrigation to the neglected Saharsa and Purnea districts.
Multipurpose Project # 6. The Rihand Project:
First of its kind in upper Ganga-Yamuna plain. In Mirzapur, a large reservoir, popularly known as Gobind Ballav Pant Sagar, was constructed. The Rihand project is one of the few costly and ambitious multi-purpose projects constructed after Independence.
Multipurpose Project # 7. The Chambal Project:
This is essentially a multi-state venture. The project site is located within Madhya Pradesh.The other beneficiary state is Rajasthan.
Multipurpose Project # 8. The Gandak Project:
The river Gandak, after debouching from Nepal Himalaya, has been tapped at Champaran in Bihar in its left bank and Gorakhpur in Uttar Pradesh in its right bank. This is also a joint venture comprising Nepal and India.
Multipurpose Project # 9. The Nagarjun Sagar Project:
This is the biggest river project in Andhra Pradesh. A dam was constructed near Nandikonda village. This project was made to ensure irrigation water in Khammam, Guntur and Kurnool districts.
Multipurpose Project # 10. The Beas Project:
This project was constructed as the extension of earlier projects like Bhakra-Nangal project. The growing need of irrigation and consequent increasing demand of electricity compelled the planners to select Beas as a potential source of water for another multipurpose project.
