What does ILR signify? A look at the core idea behind it, its justification,benefits and issues & problems associated with it.
The author would like to thank UNESCO-IHE for the use of a few slides.
Requirements of human are increasing tremendously with massive change along with the evolution of human and its development. This creates stress on the natural resources; such as water, lands, forest, etc. Freshwater demand is highly increased with the growing population and the change in lifestyle of people. Hence, the concept of interbasin water transfer was developed to minimize water scarcity and to distribute water as per requirements. However, this has brought lots of negative consequences that became a challenge to preserve the earth systems. The National River Linking Plan (NRLP) is developed by the Government of India to resolve water scarcity and that plan became controversial especially on the transboundary water right issues. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to highlight all the major and minor consequences that might happen due to the NRLP project with the perspective of making sustainable environmental development. The study revealed that for the sustainable development; every issue related to nature, socio-cultural and transboundary water right must be addressed and water should be distributed in such a manner that it solves the issues of spatial and temporal water availability.

S5c2 chapter 2-facts and figures related to irrigation.Shivu P
In this chapter some of the facts and figures related to rain fall, scarcity of drinking water and water for irrigation (drought), poor chemical quality of the bore well water and poor microbiological quality of the surface water due to water pollution, scarcity of electricity and the solutions for the same are mentioned.
Rwss (rural water supply and sanitation)tushar garg
This is the pdf notes about the rural water supply and sanitation. This pdf sis related to the cicil engineering. This pdf is for quick revision of this topic.
This presentation some details about the world water day 2019 leaving no one behind i have given some to motivation to improve water conservation so please share this it's our duty to save the water for future generation.
Water treatment is any process that improves the quality of water to make it appropriate for a specific end-use. The end use may be drinking, industrial water supply, irrigation, river flow maintenance, water recreation or many other uses, including being safely returned to the environment. Water treatment removes contaminants and undesirable components, or reduces their concentration so that the water becomes fit for its desired end-use. This treatment is crucial to human health and allows humans to benefit from both drinking and irrigation use.
This presentation tells us about the relation between the environment and health of humans and the various changes happening in the air - water - food that we consume due to our own day to day activity. What are the per capita requirement of air - water - food and how increase in the population multiplied by the requirements of air - water - food increase the pressure on the environment with non union and selfish ness in the minds of the population is taking mother earth to her death bed and thus towards the end of all of us. Still there is a time to save all of us if we unite and work with cooperation and coordination.
Comments on NWDA's (National Water Development Authority) methodology of ILR ...Shivu P
This is an article written and sent to one of my friend.
This article contains my personnel comments on the present plan of National Water Development Authority for Interlinking Indian Rivers. I think, the government will look in to it before it proceeds for the same.
As the population is increasing, the need for good air, water, food and others are also increasing, that has to be provided by the environment. In this process the environment is getting injuries and deteriorating gradually. Let us see how it is happening and how we can prevent this.
Breast feeding is the most important physiological process we need to maintain as is maintained by all other mammal to sustain the life with good health. The responsibility lies not only on the mother, but on all the people like the family, society, place of work, the nation. the mother and the child needs to get the support from the entire world to sustain breast feeding. In this aspect the role of every individual at different levels is mentioned here.
Breast feeding is one of the most important gift, support, bond, attachment provided between the Mother and the baby even after the delivery of the baby to maintain the normal physiology of the mother, baby, family, society and the nation. some of the aspects of breast feeding especially the importance of proper feeding techniques to initiate, sustain and make the breast feeding successful is mentioned here.
Reticular canal system where we use flat canals to the maximum extent is one of the most useful, eco friendly, simple, safe, secure, surface situated, larger surface irrigating, sustainable, synergistic present irrigation system, sufficient, thus say no to disputes, system of interlinking rivers. With this we should be able to end all the water related problems permanently and thus bring peace, prosperity, wealth, health, happiness to the mankind.
Summary of the book 'views to make this world developed'Shivu P
Deforestation, desertification, poverty, pollution, malnutrition, corruption, robberies, quarrels, destruction, war, drought, sufferings, diseases and such things are the consequences of population explosion, egoism, over ambition, un satisfactions, jealousy, un cooperation, in co ordination, results in environmental destruction, making our biosphere poisonous, we losing our earth for our living soon.
The main aim of this book is to make this ‘World’ developed and this ‘Earth’ as the lovely place for every ‘Human’, but not to criticize the present system. These are my opinions, I know efforts are taken from centuries to make this world / earth a more suitable place for life of all the living creatures including humans, but this is my concern expressed in this way and the rest is left to the discretion of the leaders and the people of this world.
Contents of this book - section chapter (Includes all the chapters)Shivu P
This presentation gives complete list of all the chapters of this book 'Views to make this ‘World’ developed and this ‘Earth’ as the lovely place for every ‘Human’.
S13c18 chapter 18-different blocks in the model village (auto cad drawings).Shivu P
In this chapter the various plans for the model village and the model nation are given as the prototype. The original drawings are in auto cad drawing. This chapter is an over view of the plans of the model village and model nation. Various blocks like office block, school blocks, sports blocks, residence, hospital blocks, cow keeping blocks, agriculture product processing block, and so on are mentioned. It is planned in such a way that, no one need not utilize any type of vehicle inside the village to reach different blocks, as the inter building bridges brings all the needy places in walk able distance, thus we can reduce the utilization of vehicle and the fuel to maximum level, thus the pollution and traffic congestion.
S13c17 chapter 17-facts and figures on waste management.Shivu P
Increased production of waste which are solid, electronic, gaseous, liquid, bio hazard /medical, industrial and so on are the result of modern world due to rapid growth in population, urbanization, industries and so on. Now it is becoming the threat to the people who live close to the waste dumping / treating areas and later it will becomes the threat to the entire biosphere and to the life of all the organisms. So it is very much essential to prevent uncontrolled urbanization, convert all the waste in to useful materials through recycling at the suitable level. Model village and model nation plan can handle the waste management in a better way. In this chapter some of the facts and figures related to the waste management are mentioned.
S13c16 chapter 16-facts and figures on urbanisation.Shivu P
Urbanization with all the amenities became the need for the affordable class of people. Urban slums are the people who lead the life in a bad condition where they do not have other ways to lead the life better than this, suffer a lot, acts like the reservoir of disease and spread the communicable diseases even to the affordable class of people. Traffic related issues, sanitation, transportation, domestic water supply, pollution are some of the major issues which will stick to the problem of urbanization. Now our leaders started solving these problems with fly over’s, metros, underground canal transportation, one way roads, pumping water from the rivers to the cities, identifying places to manage the waste, and so on. Do you think will these types of problems will solve by constructing more number of fly over’s?
Please understand, the solution for all these problems are not present in the urban area, but it is present in the rural area. People should stop migrating towards the urban areas, and that is possible only when the people who live in the village gets good income for their effort in their own village, good school for their children, better recreation facility in their own village and that is possible with model village - model nation plan. with model village and model nation people will stop migrating towards the urban areas and in fact those who have properties in their native village will move back to their village and thus the burden of urbanization will decrease. The leaders of the this world will understand this concept and will work in this way. Some of the facts and figures related to the urbanization are mentioned in this chapter.
S13c15 chapter 15-facts and figures on unemployment.Shivu P
S13c15 chapter 15-facts and figures on unemployment.
Unemployment problem will arise when a skilled person does not get his basic needs for his profession (for example irrigation for the farmer), or a skilled person does not able to adjust for the new job which is not related to his university degree (for example the university degree holding son of the farmer will be wasting decades in his life looking for the job in a government office instead of involving in the farm work with his father, and he will be telling to his friends that 'farming is not a good job and we will go for loss because there are no rains for many years' and it may be the truth also).
'Every second of every person is important and that needs to be utilized in a constructive ways through the programs and policies'. If the leaders thinks that ‘only their time is precious - others are not so important’, and if they fail to make the policies in such a way that, even the child which is going to be born after ten years will also get some job in suitable way soon after his education, then that nation is not going to develop with the phase other nation and the people of that nation is going to suffer a lot in various ways.
A university which generates the degree holder needs to understand the need of that degree in the society before it generating that degree holder to eradicate the graduate unemployment problem. More unemployment will lead more burden on the environment, it is because an unemployed person in the period of unemployment in his life will be leading unproductive life during his unemployment period, but he will be utilizing all the products of environment through his food, cloth, shelter and so on, thus there is a negative balance in the life and in the environment. I think the leaders of this world will understand the interrelationship between the unemployment and the sustainability of the environment and will create this world in such a way that all the people of the world will be involved in one or the other Eco friendly productive activity and thus leads a happy and prosperous life.
In this chapter I have mentioned about some of the facts like rate of unemployment, labor laws, labor force, marketable skills, professional skills, adult unemployment, graduate unemployment, and so on.
S13c13 chapter 13-facts and figures on some statistics.Shivu P
In this chapter some of the statistics related to gross domestic product, per capita income, life expectancy, crude death rate and so on are mentioned. With model village and model nation plan it is possible to increase the GDP, per capita income and life expectancy.
S13c10 chapter 10-facts and figures on poverty.Shivu P
Let us think, it is not practically possible to work twenty four hours in a day with utmost sincerity, good character, faithfulness in all the days of the year by one person and even if a person works like this, then also, he will not become the richest person of the world, its means that, there is no relation between the hours of work, character of the person, sincerity in work and so on with richness. So this world is running with the race of intelligence in both legal and illegal way and the most intelligent person for making money will become the rich soon and the people even with intelligence without the intelligence for making the money will remain as poor even with work and working for any number of hours. People working for money to lead the life but not getting the sufficient money to lead the life with this increase in the rate of all the essential materials will make this earth vulnerable for injury like poor people travelling with poor vehicles with increased emission will add to the burden on pollution, overcrowded slums will acts like the reservoir for all the communicable diseases and sudden breakups of diseases can occur at any time and it can involve any person. So it is very much essential to eradicate the poverty to save our planet for our living. I think the seriousness behind it will be understood by our leaders and will work for the same to save our earth for our living.
In this chapter some of the facts and figures related to people living with hungry in different parts of the world, per capita income, wealth distribution, and so on are mentioned.
S13c8 chapter 8-facts and figures on life style practices.Shivu P
There was a time where people were not able to identify the cause for the ailments, so they used to try the treatment, they know or they used to pry in different way or they used to practice some rituals or try with some plant products and so on. No one knows about the mechanism of action and the prognosis after giving the treatment for most of the ailments, but still they used to try the same because it was giving some mental satisfaction for the people and they used to feel that they are doing something to get cure for the ailment. But the advantages and the disadvantages of the same were not at all discussed in the gathering through debates as it was confined to one family and as they were not discussed in the media to receive the opinions about the same practice. It is not good to continue the same practice which are not going to give cure for the ailment in a proven way even if is not going to cause harm to the patient but it delays the time in seeking the suitable treatment by the patient and allows the disease to progress and it allows the disease to win in the race between the disease and the treatment to the extent of mortality / death or it may leave the life in a vegetative form with many morbidity. I think the leaders of the world will understand the seriousness behind this widely practiced unscientific rituals and its burden leading to increased mortality, morbidity, loss of workable days, economic loss through the healthcare both in private and public sector as it delays the initiation of treatment.
In this chapter some of the practices that the people practice even in this era of science is mentioned and how these practices are going cause injury to the individual or to the society either directly or indirectly are mentioned.
S13c7 Chapter 7-facts and figures on infrastructure.Shivu P
Haphazard distribution of population and the population explosion consumes lot of economy in the name of infrastructure, this leads the governments to fail in providing quality infrastructure with long life span to all the people of its country and thus we lose lot of money in this way. Poor infrastructure has got its own disadvantages in terms of maintenance and it leads to lot of accidents and may consume many lives in various ways through trauma, infection, pollution and so on. In this chapter some of the facts and figures related to the infrastructure are mentioned.
As the population increased, the need of infrastructure increased many folds. This type of disproportionate increase in the demand on infrastructure is due to haphazard distribution of population, population distribution in small hamlets away from the main stream due to various causes like caste, but the government need to provide all the basic infrastructure even to the small population of 200 or 300 people with 30 to 40 houses like good connecting road, good school building with all the needed facility, electricity connection with power station and maintenance infrastructure, water supply system and its maintenance infrastructure, revenue department, public work department and so on. Thus with the increase in the population and increase in the number of villages without any plan for future infrastructure made the government to invest more money on the infrastructure, but increase in the number of villages made the large fund to divide in to smaller and smaller amount, which lead to poor quality in infrastructure. Poor quality infrastructure lead to accidents, more money on maintenance, more waste generation, pollution and so on. So to decrease the investment on infrastructure and to increase the quality - safety - durability of the infrastructure, it is very much essential to decrease the number of villages and make the people to live together. Making the people to live together is not the simple thing to do, caste - practices - god - diet come in the way. So the leaders of the world need to think seriously to save this earth, to stop converting the agriculture lands and forest lands in to concrete forest - high ways - train tracks and so on, where these things will lead to deforestation, desertification, pollution, global warming and threat to the biosphere.
In this chapter some of the facts and figures related infrastructures are mentioned.
S13c6 chapter 6- facts and figures on healthShivu P
Health does not mean the 'hospital and the doctors', health is the reflection of nutrition/food, water, environment, air, pollution, society, infrastructure and the leaders intelligence. In this chapter some of the facts and figures related to family and health, various causes for death in various age groups in different locations, food insecurity - hunger - under nutrition, why orphanages are increasing, environment - water supply - sanitation -its impact on health care, doctor - population ratio, money spent on health, measures taken by the government still not able to achieve the satisfactory results, why millennium development goals are not achieved and how these can be handled well with model village and model nation are mentioned.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
Micro RNA genes and their likely influence in rice (Oryza sativa L.) dynamic ...Open Access Research Paper
Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs molecules having approximately 18-25 nucleotides, they are present in both plants and animals genomes. MiRNAs have diverse spatial expression patterns and regulate various developmental metabolisms, stress responses and other physiological processes. The dynamic gene expression playing major roles in phenotypic differences in organisms are believed to be controlled by miRNAs. Mutations in regions of regulatory factors, such as miRNA genes or transcription factors (TF) necessitated by dynamic environmental factors or pathogen infections, have tremendous effects on structure and expression of genes. The resultant novel gene products presents potential explanations for constant evolving desirable traits that have long been bred using conventional means, biotechnology or genetic engineering. Rice grain quality, yield, disease tolerance, climate-resilience and palatability properties are not exceptional to miRN Asmutations effects. There are new insights courtesy of high-throughput sequencing and improved proteomic techniques that organisms’ complexity and adaptations are highly contributed by miRNAs containing regulatory networks. This article aims to expound on how rice miRNAs could be driving evolution of traits and highlight the latest miRNA research progress. Moreover, the review accentuates miRNAs grey areas to be addressed and gives recommendations for further studies.

2. SECTION 5: RETICULAR CANAL SYSTEM FOR INTERLINKING INDIAN RIVERS
Why we need to interlink Indian Rivers?
Delegates, Please note:
1. RCS is a new concept for interlinking Indian rivers.
2. So, it is necessary to understand the concept with clarity.
3. Since it is a new concept all of you will get lot of doubts.
4. It is very essential to clarify the doubts, thus the RCS can be
established without errors, and it is important as the nation
needs to invest lot of money on it expecting better returns
within a year or two.
5. The clarification for the doubts for the present slide may be
2
present in subsequent slide.
6. So, please write down the doubts in the work sheet with the
slide number in the margin, which is mentioned in the right
lower corner of each slide.
7. These doubts will be discussed in the ‘interaction’ session.
4. Reticular canal system
Eradication of drought will also eliminates the
poverty to the maximum extent especially in our
nation where the maximum people depend on rain
for their livelihood i.e. for Agriculture.
Drought leading to Poverty acting as the obstacle in
the process of national progress is the topic of
discussion and it is the national emergency that we
need to address.
And the answer to this national emergency is present
in ‘RCS for Interlinking Indian rivers’ that I need to
propagate, for which I seek the help of all of you.

basin cannot be stored
with any number of
reservoirs, thus we need
to leave the water to the
sea which exceed the
capacity of the reservoir
and the people will not
have any benefit out of it.

fulfill the requirement of the poor.
Rich cannot expect more from the poor in
many types of services (e.g. Health service).
The rich need to confine himself in the place

Nation
Less generation of the money through the taxation.
Poor public infrastructure.
Poor salary and benefits for the employs.
Increased tendency to indulge in corruption ‘to

It is true, by increasing the height of the dam from 519 to 524.25
mts. It is possible to store more water, that we can use it later.
But what is the use if we are not getting sufficient water to fill the
dam in one rain year. As per the calculation the total available water
is 2293 TMC, Andrapradesh is more benefitted from this because
there is more land available for agriculture and more population is
going to be benefited. If the water generated is less then both the
states are under loss. The level of water (Height) in the dam depends
on the rain in the catchment area (Inflow) and the utilization in the
process of agriculture and others (out flow). If the inflow is steady
throughout the year and the out flow is also steady then both the
states are going to be benefitted. If we increase the height of the
dam then we may be storing more water but the back water may
immerse more inhabited areas and it may extend in to the
neighboring states like Maharastra and other interstate issues and
problems of rehabilitation will also arise.
48
49. Topic series: 282 Topic: 5 . F&F –Water dispute – Height of almatti dam.
With RCS all such problems will be solved. If we are creating the FPC1 at
the level of 500mts AMSL, then the back water in the Almatti dam will
raise only up to 500 (exactly 495) mts AMSL. Any water which is more
than 500 mts AMSL will enter back in the FPC1. But the almatti dam will
always be able to release the water to both Karnataka and
Andrapradesh, what ever amount they need. Here the total water
availability: 2293tmc, and the allotted water to Andrapradesh 1001tmc
and to Karnataka is 911tmc, Maharastra 666tmc.
With RCS the total water available becomes more than the requirement,
and the states like Andrapradesh, Karnataka, and Maharastra can use
2000TMC or even more if they want, because the FPC1 will be
continuously filled by the rivers like Ganga – Yamuna – Mahanadhi –
Narnmada- Godhavari – Kaveri – and Krishna it itself.
Thus we need not increase the height of the almatti dam ‘in this
instance’. Increasing the height of the dam may be the necessity in
another instance, that we need to discuss, as such issues arises.

With RCS underground water in all the places of the

open wells will be filled with quality water. There will
not be any necessity to dig new bore wells with RCS.
The free flowing surface water of the RCS will be
good enough to use for domestic purposes provided
the RCS is not contaminated by the activity of the
people. Strict policies on solid – liquid – gaseous
waste disposal will lead to prevention of

Water scarcity and loss in
agriculture will never occur with
RCS in any part of India. Farmers
need not wait for rain in any
season of the year. Water for
agriculture will be available in
sufficient quantity all the time of
the year. Thus RCS will bring an
end to the farmer’s suicide due
to loss in agriculture.

Topic: 12 . F&F - GDP was known to drop when
there was a bad drought.
[Drought-proofing India.
How does a drought translate into a fall in growth? Since agriculture
constitutes about 25 per cent of GDP, a four percentage point decline
in agricultural production should directly translate into a one
percentage point decline in GDP growth. In addition, there are other
effects. The linkages between agriculture and GDP arise from both
the demand and the supply side. On the demand side, when
agriculture does well, rural incomes rise. A rise in rural incomes leads
to greater demand for industrial products. It has been seen that
consumer goods do well when rural incomes rise. In some cases the
impact is immediate, in others the effect comes with a lag. The sales
of shampoos, soaps and bicycles might respond immediately, whereas
the sales of motorcycles, fertilizer, tractors and televisions may have a
lagged impact. Source [53]

Creation of RCS will solve the
problems related to irrigation
and thus the people dependent
on agriculture will produce more
income. Thus, they produce
more demand on the industry for
their needs and ultimatly the
industry and the agriculture
segment together will lead to
better GDP.

Seven percent of the world's population has not
enough water. By 2050, this will be 70 percent.
Yet our planet has 1,400 million million million
liters of water: 100 billion liters a head. But 97
percent is salty and much of the rest is trapped
underground or stored as polar ice. Only 0.8
percent of the Earth's water is accessible--and
drinkable: about a billion billion liters.
It is enough on average. But some countries have
too much. Others have too little. Source [54]

I think the nation has to understand the
seriousness and act according for the supply of
water to all the parts of the country on emergency
basis. If we take rest for few years by not taking
any serious thought to get the water for all the
people of the nation and if we plan the same after
some years by that time we may be in a position
to do the project but the international laws may
stop us not to carry out any such projects and the
people of the nation is going suffer from the
deficiency. The word ‘war for water’ needs to be
understood efficiently. 61

With RCS all the drought prone states of the

Delhi, Panjab, Andrapradesh and Rayal seema,
Karnataka, Tamilnadu, and Kerala can be
irrigated well. The areas of the India which are
coloured blue are flood prone that does not
mean the flood is due to rain over that area, but
it is due to the convergence of river water over

We should understand that the drought is

only for few years and then goes off. This is
the human sufferings existing from many
centuries and the severity is increasing as
the population increases. With RCS we can
eradicate all types of drought permanently.

Topic:18 . F&F – Drought - the silent threat to rural economy.
Since agriculture is the main profession of the nation and
the immediate victim of the drought disaster is
agriculture, we need to take measures to eradicate the
drought immediately on emergency basis and the
solution for this is the RCS. Since the Drought causes
damage to the crop and thus the farm employment, the
marginal farm employs are the people who are going to
affect at the first and leads to migration to urban areas in
search of employment. Thus if we create RCS all the
farmers will have better income in their own village and
will not migrate.

Topic: 1 . F&F – Underground canal.
In RCS we will not be creating the underground canals
frequently. It is because the underground canals may cut
the distance travelled by the canal. But, that we do not
want, because the longer the surface canal the more
area will be the canal irrigates with more number of
branches (Secondary canals). If the path of canals
contains some chemicals then there is a possibility of
making the entire RCS to be contaminated with that
chemical. So if we are doing the underground canals in
some part of the RCS then it is also important to assess
the chemical quality of the water coming out from the
canal.

Interlinking rivers for the better utilization of river
water as the demand for water is increasing with
the increased population is not a new thing. But
we have to identify the most suitable ways for our
nation depending on the geography and water
availability in the nation. According to me ‘RCS’
will fulfill our need in the fields of agriculture,
industry and for domestic purposes.
