Anjali Verma, Dr. Narendra Kumar

Abstract :

This paper focuses on the construction techniques of the proposed Inter basin water transfer Sharda and Yamuna link canal; one of the proposed Inter Basin Water Transfer Links of National Perspective Plan (NPP). The Sharda–Yamuna link canal has been proposed to transfer water from river Sharda to River Yamuna by S–Y link canal of about 11,680 million m3. Surplus water will transfer from river Sharda near Tanakpur town of Champawat district of state Uttaranchal into the Yamuna River near Kairana village of Muzaffarnagar district of Uttar–Pradesh state in India. The construction techniques of the proposed Sharda–Yamuna Link canal include construction of Poornagiri and Pancheshwar dams, construction of barrages for flood management viz. Sharda, Kosi, Ramganga, Ganga, construction of power houses, construction of 384.0 km long main canal, anch canals and distributaries.
