Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Status as of March 2018. http://pmksy-mowr.nic.in/aibp/
Priorities 1, 2, 3 have end dates of 3/17, 3/18 & 12/19. Maximum irrigation potential will be created by Priority 3 projects.
1) Maha drought-proofing
----------------------------
Govt will fund 25% or Rs 3830cr, for 91 irrigation projects in Maharashtra. NABARD will lend Maha rest of 75% to complete these projects in a mission mode.
- 83 minor and 8 medium IP in drought-prone Vidarbha, Marathwada & surrounds.
- Rs 9,520cr (or 70% total) is for larger projects which require the building of bigger canals & check dams.
- 376,900 Ha of irrigation potential
- Poor 18% irrigation of 22.5m Ha cultivated area was a factor.
- Maha has suffered from severe droughts & high suicides between 2012-2016.
- Groundwater is not much beyond the rainy season
2) Maha's other PMKSY projects
----------------------------
Ravi Prasad, pt of Union Cabinet said 26 major & medium IPs were earlier approved (excluding 1.) for Maha for completion by December 2019, with irrigation potential for 850,000 Ha. Maha FM says Centre has extended around Rs 21,000cr to Maha including 1. above. He says Maha is contemplating 21 more irrigation projects, and Centre is likely to grant Rs 5500cr for them. He says Maha has allocated Rs 40,000cr to state's irrigation this year!! CM Fadnavis said minor IP (tanks, ponds, small check dams) will be done by May 2019, but larger projects will take time. Irrigation projects will have elements of lifting river water by pumps, and pipes to far-flung areas. All projects are jointly monitored and time frames agreed btw State & Centre.
3) AP's Polavaram dam cum irrigation project
----------------------------------------------------
57% of Polavarm project was built by July 2018. The project was in stasis from 2008 with virtually no work done, until it was revived in 2014, and funded by the Centre. Completion date is 2019.

4) Micro Irrigation Fund with NABARD
----------------------------------------------------
Govt plans to double the rate of new micro-irrigation, to 10m Ha over 5yrs under PMKSY-PDMC (per drop more crop). It will set up Rs-5000cr corpus for micro-irrigation over 2 years under Nabard -- which will fund Centre's share and provide funds at ~3% below cost to States (7 yr loan with 2 yr grace).

1) Pancheshwar multi-purpose dam
---------------------------------------
It could provide valuable flood protection to UP against the sudden release of water in Nepal. This article reports that UP authorities are cautiously optimist that work will start. Centre which is leading the negotiations with Nepal has accepted in-principle to fund the whole construction and says bids would be invited soon.

2) Dam Rehabilitation and Improvement Project II
-----------------------------------------
Rs 7000cr will be spent from 2020-26 to repair & rehabilitate 700 large dams (18 states), with WB assistance. Dams will be developed for tourism, sports recreation and high-quality fishing, for additional revenue. (NB. Phase-1 is expected to finish by June 2020. It involves strengthening 223 dams at Rs 2100cr). Dams incl:
─ Bhakra (Himachal Pradesh)
─ Srisailam (Telangana)
─ Koyna & Jayakwadi (Maharashtra)
─ Matatila, Ramganga & Raj Ghat (UP)

- Slow progress at completing AIBP & CADWM
------------------------------------
(Accelerated Irrigation Benefit & Command Area Development)
As of Jan 2017, 149 major & medium IPs were approved by Centre under AIBP. These were brought under PMKSY.
Long-Term Irrigation Fund under NABARD was created by 2016 Budget, with Rs 20,000cr allocation to fund completion of half-completed major & medium IPs, in a mission mode. 99 AIBP projects in 18 states were chosen for completion by:
2016-17 for 23 projects
2017-18 for 31 projects
2019-20 for 45 projects
Update June 2017: 21 out of 99 priority irrigation projects are completed. 45 other projects are ahead of schedule (in Maha, MP and Odisha).
Project costs and share were given as:
Year Central State Share Total
2016-17 11918 17787 29705
2017-18 7930 10644 18574

Total 31,655 46,253 77,908
Update July 2018: Only Rs 21,846.5cr (or 38% sanctioned) has been released as of July 2018. It includes Polavaram at Rs 5814 (released 91% of sanctioned, though costs have risen sharply).
Update Sept 2018: 93 projects have had monies accepted for disbursements. Rs 23,400cr has been disbursed for 86 project. *75 projects have been completed, mostly in Maha, Telangana and UP.

Apart from Govt budgetary allocation, NABARD can also raise funds via extra-budgetary sources (coupons will be paid by GOI) and open market bonds. Central execution agencies will use LTIF to dispense Central assistance. States govt can borrow their share from LTIF if they choose. Amount of cost-free Central funds will be enough to allow States to borrow at 6% for 15 years, with 3 years moratorium. All projects will be jointly monitored every 6mo.
All selected projects were already under implementation, so had necessary clearances in place. For new project approval of projects, the Technical committee will forward projects to CWC (Central Water Commission). Approval of loans is done by the Ministry of Water & NABARD board sub-committee. If a project is over Rs 2000cr Finance ministry and Minister of Water are required. Below this, it can be done by a combination of Secretaries, Niti Aayog and NABARD chairman.REPLY 26w - Centre has sanctioned 91 more irrigation projects for Maha. Maha asks for more, and is likely to get them!!
REPLY 32w - Maharashtra
===========
Maha govt decided to change years of mismanagement, underfunding and corruption in the irrigation dept. Incomplete projects were a complete waste for the Treasury, and of no value to poor farmers. Delays in relief and rehabilitation also caused anguish to those who lost land to these projects. Maha govt proceeded to correct these failings when 3.5 years ago, it set an ambitious target of raising the irrigation potential from 18 to 27. It concentrated on finishing old projects. See below:
1. Water resources dept says Maha requires Rs 101,000cr to complete all 428 ongoing IPs. This is the balance, as total projects costs were Rs 177,800cr and govt had spent Rs 76,800cr on them.
2. Of 428 projects, 225 projects are almost complete. This means benefits will start to show quite soon.
3. After these, State is prioritising projects that are 50 to 75% completed. State is also prioritising IPs in backward & drought-prone areas.
4. The previous govt should not have started so many projects as State didn't have the capacity to fund all of them. No work was done on 23 sanctioned projects. Only 5 projects were started less than 5 years ago, and most projects have idled for 15-30 years.
Delays breakdown is:
154 projects started 5-10 yrs ago
51 projects started 10-15 yrs
48 projects started 15-20 yrs
70 projects started 20-30 yrs
77 projects started > 30 yrs
REPLY 32w - Maharashtra (part 2)
=================
Maha has an ambitious target of completing 106 irrigation projects by end-2019, to create 1,500 MMC (or million metric cubes) of water storage in the irrigation command area. It involves optimising water storage and increasing land under irrigation.
1. In Nov 2014, it selected 225 IPs for completion, to water storage of 2500 MMC.
2. By 2015, 119 IPs were completed, adding 1000 MMC, and 0.262m Ha under irrigation. The remaining 106 projects are on schedule for completion by end-2019. The review suggested they can be expedited.
3. Emphasis was shifted to water management part of IPs even as storage was getting completed. This was praised in review. For example, work was done on plugging water seepage in existing dams.
4. The official said that dams levels were higher after the completion of 119 IPs, ie more than 50% higher level
5. Work on Kolhapuri Type Weirs had resolved the drinking water problem of 3.59m villagers and added 0.35m Ha under irrigation. eg 50k gates (or needles) and 1200 KTW repairs had added 1000 MMC storage.
REPLY 32w - Oct 2017 update: PMKSY
-------------------------------
Rationale:
Only 95.8m Ha (or 48%) of India's total agricultural land (200.8m Ha) is irrigated. It is a challenge to adopt advanced farming on 52% of land which is non-irrigated land. Here proper water management is required -- eg water harvesting, water conservation.
Govt's ultimate goal is to provide every farm with water (“har khet ko pani”). It also wants a permanent solution to drought-proofing, and to use the water more productively ("more crop less drop"). PMKSY is a comprehensive irrigation scheme for achieving all of these aims.
Components:
PMKSY will create irrigation potential through major and medium IPs, but work is also needed for CAD&WM so as to fully utilise the irrigation potential. PMKSY is also used to create protective irrigation by harnessing rainwater at micro-level through ‘Jal Sanchay’ and ‘Jal Sinchan’. Centre will invest Rs 50,000cr in 5 years from 2015/16 to 2019/20 to develop complete irrigation or water supply chain:-water storage-distribution channels-minor irrigation-farm level micro-irrigation
IRRIGATION PROJECTS
Major & medium IPs are being implemented in the mission mode, and along with Command Area Development will complete 99 major and medium IPs covering 76.03 lakh hectares in a phased manner till December 2019.
MINOR WORKS
-- water harvesting structures under MNREGA
-- water recharge, drought mitigation and micro-water storage in drought-prone districts.-56,226 water harvesting structures, 1,13,976 hectare irrigation capacity and 675 district irrigation schemes have been prepared.
MICRO-IRRIGATION
Step up in coverage by micro-irrigation. 28% higher allocation in 2016-17 (Rs 1992cr) covered 0.84m Ha (or an increase of 0.27m Ha).
2011-14 Rs. 3700cr 1.614m Ha
2014-17 Rs. 4509cr 1.838m Ha
2017-18 Rs. 3400cr 1.200m Ha (target)
• MI potential is 69.5m Ha of which 7m Ha was realised by 2014, and 90% remained. Based on 2017-18 allocation, the potential cost to Centre for completing 59.1m Ha would be Rs 1.67 lakh crore. Whilst Centre has extended support, N & NE states (eg Bihar) are unable to come up with matching funds. As a result, micro-irrigation is concentrated in 5 states.
http://pmksy.gov.in/microirrigation/Archive/PMKSY.pdf
APPLICATION for PMKSY fund
PMKSY funds will be allocated only if the States has prepared district irrigation plans and state irrigation plans.
Planning and execution of PMSKY are decentralised. District irrigation plans are prepared in districts based on identified gaps in irrigation infrastructure of a district. A DIP can be prepared on two levels viz. Block and District. The DIPs will be vetted by the Governing body of Zila Panchayat and subsequently be incorporated in the State Irrigation Plan.
SIP is a consolidation of DIPs. It takes into consideration the State Agricultural Plans created under the Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana. PMKSY projects would be scrutinised by the State Level Project Screening Committee (SLPSC) and sanctioned by the State Level Sanctioning Committee, which is already set under Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana.
The state agriculture department is the implementation agency of PMKSY, with inter-ministerial National Steering Committee (NSC) doing periodic reviews.
REPLY 31w - Background
---------------
More groundwater is exploited (63% of irrigation depends on it) compared to surface water, despite the fact that total usable water resources (of 1123 BCM) consist of 433 BCM groundwater (39 per cent) and 690 BCM surface water (61 per cent). Over-exploitation of GW lowers groundwater levels and affects the quality of water. This should be avoided.
Of the surface water resource of 690 BCM, storage of 253.4 BCM (36.72 %) has been created via major and medium irrigation projects. Another 51 BCM may be added with the completion of on-going projects. Thus, ongoing projects will add 20% more to existing storage, leading to capturing 44.1% of SW resources.
Storage capacity per annual flow is highest for Pennar basin. It is over 50% for Krishna, Tapi and Narmada river basins. It is very low for Ganga (11%) and dismal for the Brahmaputra. Total storage is highest for Ganga followed by Krishna, Godavari and Narmada river basins.
Percapita water availability varies a lot, from high in Ganga-Brahmaputra-Meghna river basin (20,136cu m) to as low as 263 cu m in Sabarmati basin. (Figures vary with season).
☼ LOW availability (500 - 1000 cu m): Krishna, Mahi, Tapi (East flowing rivers)
☼ VERY LOW availability (<500 cu m): Cauvery, Subernarekha, Pennar, Sabarmati (East flowing rivers); Kutch and Saurashtra including Luni (West flowing rivers)
With demand projected to rise even beyond useable total water resources of 1123 BCM by 2050, it is necessary to apply scientific principles for conservation and sustainable management of water resources. These are rainwater harvesting, adequate water storage, artificial recharge to long-lasting groundwater and enhancement of water use efficiency. Most importantly, irrigation efficiency must be pushed up from 30-40% to 60%, by proper maintenance of infra & micro-irrigation. Water storage will prevent loss of 70+% of surface run-off during 4-5 months of monsoon.
The Ultimate Irrigation Potential has been assessed to be 139.9m Ha. Inter-Basin Water Transfer (IBWT) proposals may create additional irrigation 35m Ha: 13m Ha through peninsular and 22m Ha through Himalayan components.
REPLY 31w - AVOIDING CRITICAL WATER SHORTAGE
==========================
Critical lack of water in cities (eg Shimla) can have untold impact on the local economy (eg tourism). NITI Aayog has released the Composite Water Management Index (CWMI) in June 2018. This highlighted the current plight of low-performing states. It showed visions of 21 major cities running out of groundwater by 2021, in states housing 50% of Indian population!!
The index is a composite of 28 indicators, related to water management. Together they can be used to rank States and determine vulnerabilities & actions to mitigate them:
► Irrigation status
• major and medium irrigation
• source augmentation
• watershed development
• sustainable on-farm water use practices
• participatory irrigation practices
► Drinking water status
• rural drinking water
• urban water supply
• sanitation
► Other water activities status
• policy and governance of water supply
• repairs of water leaks
• treatment of sewage water
• recycling of wastewater
• recycling of water by industry
GOALS FOR FUTURE WATER USE-----------------------------------
Higher water use by people and industry will limit water availability to agriculture. In the future, agriculture use should be pegged down to 68%. To do this, by 2025, irrigation efficiency should be increased -- for surface water from 30% to 60%, and for groundwater from 55% to 75%.
HOW?-------
1) Adoption of Micro-irrigation: It is necessary but financially challenging to do everything quickly. Water-deficient states must act first:
— Punjab, Haryana
— Uttar Pradesh, Bihar
— Maharashtra, Telangana
— Southern states
2) Focus on CAD: Focus has rightly shifted to efficient distribution of storage water via PMKSY. Lack of good CAD creates a gap between irrigation potential and irrigation realisation.
3) Optimising Cropping patterns: Inappropriate cropping patterns affects crop productivity and irrigation efficiency. A shift is recommended. For example, shifting rice sowing to water-surplus Eastern India is a good move. Sugarcane cultivation should be avoided in semi-arid regions of West UP & Eastern Maha.
4) Reduce fragmentation via leasing, contract farming or FPO: Fragmentation is known to adversely affect incomes, productivity & efficient use of water:
• Model Agricultural Land Leasing Act, 2016— can lead to consolidation of small farms.
• Farmer producer organizations (FPO)— gives collective strength to small or marginal farmers.

REPLY 31w - Sardar Sarovar -- faces tough challenges
-------------------------------------------
24th Oct 2017
Though Sardar Sarovar Project was finally inaugurated in Sept 2017, its distribution channels have not been fully built. SSP in Gujarat should have a 458 km long main canal + 38 branch canals that further branch into minor and sub-minor canals.
