摘要

A highly ambitious and massive water project that would integrate most of India's major waterways at a cost of more than US 100 billion dollar has become a topic of intense debate in the scientific and policy-making communities. Interlinking of rivers, although primarily aimed to mitigate problems of floods and droughts in different regions of the country, is also correlated with positive implications to energy- and transport-related industry, as well as with the agriculture and human health sectors. It is said that apart from addressing the problems of floods and water scarcity, this project has enormous potential to deliver advantages such as substantial and cost-effective hydroelectric power, enhancing food security, and an alternative transport system of navigable waterways, claimed as more efficient and effective than the present road system. It is also argued that it will help to reduce job-seeking migration from rural to urban areas, as it is expected that the interlinking of rivers will create numerous local jobs. However, critics identify several problems. They cast doubt on its financial and socio-political implications, emphasize rehabilitation problems, and highlight uncertain impacts for soil and other ecosystems. They also speculate about increased water logging and new breeding grounds for mosquitoes and epidemics, such as malaria. Instead of mega-engineering, they support practical ways to use local water, including decentralized irrigation, rainwater harvesting, groundwater recharging, and recycling and re-using wastewater.
