Ahmedabad: Early September, the city-city of Gujarat might look at the backpack drinking water supply.
From September and so on until March next year, from 206 major and minor reservoirs, there will be an average of six reservoirs that have drinking water reserves, and that also during certain periods.
It will be the first time in years that the Department of Gujarat Water Resources has been forced to adopt the supply of water staggering to install on a strict drinking water crisis.
TimesViewt will help if the Gujarat government, such as 14 other states in the country, the water policy script itself to manage invaluable and rare resources.
The instance of irregular rain will be a recurrent problem in the near future.
The state, in addition to upholding the water supply measured in cities, must also accelerate the formulation of its own rules for legal land governance passed by parliament in 2005 has not been implemented in the country.
For example, between September and October 2021, reservoirs such as Sani, Vartu-2, Ghee, Vadiya, Hiran-2 and Chicken will be tapped for stock water.
After that, between November and December, the state will attract the reserves of drinking water from Machchhu-1, NYKA, Brahmani-2, Fatehgadh.
Between January and March, drinking water will be available at Hasnapur, Khambala, Sasoi, Trivani Thanga, and SUVI reservoirs.
Between April and July, which is a waters ordered by the next Monsun will be available with seven Mukteshwar Reservoirs, Machchhu-2, Ozat-2, Bantva-Kharo, Sarthi, Raidy, and Gajansar.
A senior Narmada official, the Department of Water Resources recognizes that cities such as Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Rajkot and letters must stick to the minimum supply of 145 liters per capita per day (LPCD).
“At the Ahmedabad Norma must be 185 LPCD, but we see that consumption in certain areas surpasses 220 and 270 LPCD.
This cannot be maintained.
There is a serious problem with drinking water,” the official said.
The concept record presented before the state government is claimed that only six dams have more than 90% water reserves.
There are 54 dam which has less than 10% water water reserves, while there are 54 dam which has less than 10% water reserves.
Last year during this time there was a storage of 12,347 million cubic meters (MCM), this year down to 8109.20mcm.
“While developing a drinking water draw strategy, each region is considered a unit to optimize the use of drinking water.
We have also taken into account the evaporation of 7% which is expected to last up to 2022 April at this reservoir,” the official said.
The only consolation is that Sardar Sarovar Dam has a reserve of 4.310mcm, which receives 78mcm water from Madhya Pradesh State in the last 10 days.
The average inflow of the Sarovar Sardar Dam is 34,629 Cusec.
