Indore is commercial capital of Madhya Pradesh with a bulk of its trade coming from large,
medium and small scale manufacturing and service industries. These industries range from
Automobile to Pharmaceutical and from Software to Retail and from Textile trading to Real
estate. Major industrial areas surrounding the city include the Pithampur Special Economic
Zone and the Sanwer Industrial belt. Pithampur is also known as the Detroit of India. While
the Textile manufacturing and Trading is the oldest business to contribute to economy, the
Real Estate has emerged very fast in past few years. Major software firms in Indore include
Impetus, IBM India and Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC). Also many small and medium
size software development firms are also established. In the software front a major event
occurred in the first half of 2011 when India's biggest software company Tata Consultancy
Services decided to open a campus in Indore. Government of MP has also done the land
allotment. Infosys, country‟s second largest information technology services company, plans to
set up new development centre at Indore at an investment of Rs 100 crore in phase one.
Pithampur near Indore houses production plants of various Pharmaceutical companies like
Ipca Laboratories, Cipla, Lupin, Glenmark, Unichem.
1.1.2 History
Historian Raghuvir Singh is of the opinion that it was only in the 17th century that Indore
underwent rapid metamorphosis, finding a respectable mention as a Kasba in the court records
of Emperor Aurangazeb. By the 18th century, it had developed as a chief administrative
headquarter – as a Pargana. History bears testimony to the fact that the progress of Indore was
initiated with the arrival of Marathas in 1703, who made the best of the weakening grip of the
Mughals. Simultaneously, in the Malwa Plateau, Indore came under their focus.
The year 1730 brought autonomy to Indore when the Peshwas gave the Jagir of Indore to
Malhar Rao Holkar. Tracing the etymology of Indore, we come across several interesting facts.
One is that it got its name Indrapur from the famous Rashtrakut ruler Indra, whose empire
extended over the entire Malwa region. Indrapur became Indoor and finally it became Indore.
Another legends hold that in the year 1741, the Indreshwar temple was built and it is after the
name of this temple that the region was named Indreshwar, to be subsequently renamed
Indrapur. Under the influence of Marathas, it began to be called Indoor. It is interesting to note
that the Britishers pronounced it as Indoure, which eventually became Indore. The Residency
at Indore was built in 1818. In 1844, Tukoji Rao Holkar ascended the throne. The reign of
Holkar dynasty continued in Indore till India got Independence in 1947.

The birth of the new State of Madhya Bharat was heralded by the inaugural speech of Pandit

1.4 Agro Ecology, Climate, Hydrology and Topography:
1.4.1 Agro-ecology :
Madhya Pradesh has
diverse agro-climatic
zones. It is segregated by
13 different agro-climatic
zones. Indore comes
under Malwa plateau.
Malwa Plateau is a region
in west-central northern
India occupying a plateau of
volcanic origin in the
western part of the state of
Madhya Pradesh. This
region of plateau had been a
separate political unit from
the time of the Indian tribe
of Malavas until 1947, when
the British Malwa Agency was fused into Madhya Bharat, also known as Malwa Union.
Although political borders have fluctuated throughout the history of Malwa Plateau, the region
has developed its own distinctive culture and language.
The average elevation of the Malwa plateau is 500 metres, and the landscape slopes towards
the north. The Chambal River and its tributaries drain most of the Malwa Plateau. The upper
reaches of the Mahi River drain the western part of this Malwa Plateau. Ujjain was the
political, economic, and cultural capital of the Malwa Plateau in ancient times, and Indore is
presently the largest city and commercial centre. Overall, agriculture is the main occupation of
the people of Malwa Plateau. The region has been one of the important producers of opium in
the entire world. Cotton and soybeans are other important cash crops of Malwa Plateau, and
textiles are a major industry.
Malwa Plateau primarily includes the state of Madhya Pradesh and its districts of Dewas,
Dhar, Indore, Jhabua, Mandsaur, Neemuch, Rajgarh, Ratlam, Shajapur, Ujjain, and parts of
Guna and Sehore, and the Rajasthan districts of Jhalawar and parts of Banswara and
Chittorgarh. Malwa is surrounded in the northeast by the Hadoti region, in the northwest by
the Mewar region, in the west by the Vagad region and Gujarat. Politically and
administratively, the definition of Malwa Plateau is sometimes extended to include the Nimar
region south of the Vindhyas.
The geology of Malwa Plateau generally refers to the volcanic upland south of the Vindhyas,
which includes the Malwa region and expands in east to include the upper basin of the Betwa
and the headwaters of the Dhasan and Ken rivers. Malwa Plateau experiences a tropical
climate with dry deciduous forests that are home to a number of tribes, most prominent of them
being the Bhils. The culture of Malwa Plateau had influences from Gujarati, Rajasthani and
Marathi cultures. Malvi is the most commonly used language, especially in rural areas, while
Hindi is widely understood in cities. Major places of tourist interest in Malwa Plateau include
Ujjain, Mandu, Maheshwar and Indore.

1.4.3 Hydrogeology
The Deccan Traps, which are the predominant rocks in the district, have wide variation
in the water bearing properties of the different units constituting them. The massive
basalts their weathered zones and secondary porosities and the vesicular basalts with
their minutely connected and partially filled vesicles play an important role in
determining the occurrence, movement and storage of ground water. These invariably
form potential aquifers. The red-bole is non productive. In the alluvial areas, the
occurrence of ground water is governed by sand/clay ratio. The sand beds generally
form good aquifers, but due to the limited thickness and erratic occurrence in the form
of lenses, the ground water structures in them are poor to moderately productive.
Fig 7 : Hydrology of Map of Indore.
District Irrigation Plan, District-Indore, Madhya Pradesh 20
The main source of recharge to the basaltic aquifer in the district is rainfall. To some
extent, recharge also takes place by influent seepage from the streams and their
tributaries. Due to low permeabilities of basalts and undulating topography, the run off
is very high. This restricts the recharge to ground water body. This is reason for large
scale seasonal fluctuation in the water level of the wells tapping trappean formation.
Ground Water in the Deccan Traps in Indore district occurs mostly under water table
conditions. The nature of topography, extent and depth of weathering, distribution of
secondary porosity in the form of fractures and joints and the occurrence and
disposition of vesicular units govern the movement of ground water.
At some places, confined conditions area also observed due to the alternating nature of
the impermeable massive and productive vesicular basalts. At places, like Khajarana,
Betma and Gautampura, semi-artesian conditions are also observed.
1.4.4 Ground Water
The Central Ground Water Board has drilled 9 exploratory wells, 14 observation wells
and 37 piezometers in the district. These boreholes drilled down to a depth of 100 mbg.
Older Trap have recorded higher yields – 375 to 825 lpm as compared to boreholes
piercing younger trappean units in the southern part of the district where the yields
vary between 75 to 225 lpm. It has also been observed that the yields of dug-cum-bore
wells tapping confined aquifers are two to three times higher than the yields of wells
tapping the water table aquifer.
A study of the lithologs of exploratory wells and piezometers indicate that almost ten
vesicular layers have been encountered within a thickness of 218 m. The individual
layers vary in thickness from 3 to 20 meters. Pumping tests were carried out at Rojri,
Harsola and Sonway. The discharge during the tests ranged between 160 and 260 lpm.
The transmissivity values ranged between 127.7 m2 /day to 149.6 m2 /day. It was
observed that the vesicular zones occurring below a depth of 30 m have poor water
yielding capacity. The thickness of the weathered formation encountered ranges
between 6 and 30 m. The thickness of the water bearing zones is generally between 1
and 3 meters. However, a 14 m thick water bearing zone was struck at Gautampura.
Water Levels
A) Depth to Water Level – Pre-
monsoon (2012)
Depth to water level data reveals
that the water levels in the range
of 10-20 mbgl occupy major part of
the Depalpur Block and a
maximum part of Indore Block.
Some parts of Mhow and Sanwer
Blocks have
water levels in the range of 10-20
mbgl. Shallower water levels of 5-
10 mbgl cover the remaining parts
of the district.
District Irrigation Plan, District-Indore, Madhya Pradesh 21
B) Depth to Water Level – Post-monsoon (2012)
Depth to water level data reveals that a major part of the district has water levels in
the range of 2-5 mbgl. Some parts of Sanwer and Depalpur Blocks have water levels in
the range of 5-10 m bgl as also do isolated patches in Indore Block and some part in
Mhow Block. Deeper water levels >10 m bgl are found in north western part of
Depalpur Block.
Groundwater level trend (May2003 to May 2012)
Analyses of Groundwater level data of pre-monsoon period indicate that there is rise as
well as decline in water level in the district. In general, rise in water level is in the
range of 15.88 to 26.44 cm/year whereas decline is in the range of 10.06 to 12.14cm/yr.
Ground Water Resources
Dynamic ground water resources of the district have been estimated for base year -
2008/09 on block-wise basis. There are four number of assessment units (block) in the
district which fall under non-command (99 %) and command (1.% Mhow and Depalpur)
sub units. Mhow block of the district is categorized as semi critical and Depalpur ,
Indore and Sanwer as over exploited. The highest stage of ground water development is
computed as 148 % in Indore block. The net ground water availability in the district is
52,314 ham and ground water draft for all uses is 65,620 ham, making stage of ground
water development 125 % (104 % in 2003/04) as a whole for district. After making
allocation for future domestic and industrial supply for next 25 years, balance available
ground water for future irrigation would be negative.
1.4.5 Ground Water Quality
Quality of Ground Water for drinking : Ground water quality in Indore district is
assessed annually by CGWB on the basis of water samples collected from hydrograph
stations in the district. Ground water in the district is generally medium to high saline
as electric conductivity values varies between 586 to 3780 μs/cm. Nitrate in the ground
water of Indore district is varying between 0.5 to 296 mg/l. Nitrate more than 45 mg/l
was found in four villages namely Sanwer (52 mg/l), Hatod (79 mg/l), Machal (139 mg/l)
and Ushapura (177 mg/l). High nitrate in the village area is apparently due to
excessive use of fertilizers and agricultural waste. The total hardness of ground water
in the district is generally under safe limit as per BIS standards. Ground water of
Machal, Sanwer and Ushapura village is not safe for drinking. Fluoride in the district
is in the range of 0.12 to 0.48 mg/l, i.e. well below 1.5 mg/l. No arsenic has been
detected in the district.

1.5 Physiography and Soil Profile
Geomorphologically, the district can be divided into three units; Units of extrusive
origin, units of denudational origin and units of fluvial origin (Plate II). The units of
extrusive origin comprise of Region of middle level plateaus (550-900m amsl), Region of
low level plateaus (350-550m amsl) and Plain. The Region of middle level plateaus is
scattered, while the Regions of low-level plateaus form the main unit in the district.
The Plain occupies a very small area around the border of Khandwa district. Of the
units of denudational origin, denudational slope on Deccan Trap occupy a large area in
Mhow block and is mostly covered with forests. The undifferentiated colluvial fans
occupy a very small area in Mhow block. The Unit of fluvial origin viz; floodplain is
confined to the drainage of the main rivers in the district.
The district is covered by medium black soils. These soils are 0.46 to 0.9 meters thick
and are rich in lime and lime nodules. The sub-soil and the partially disintegrated rock
below allows easy drainage and hence these medium black soils can be freely irrigated.
District Irrigation Plan, District-Indore, Madhya Pradesh 26
1.6 Soil Erosion and Runoff Status:
Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process that affects all landforms. In agriculture,
soil erosion refers to the wearing a way of a field's topsoil by the natural physical forces of
weather and wind or through forces associated with farming activities such as tillage. Erosion,
whether it is by water, wind or tillage, involves three distinct actions – soil detachment,
movement and deposition. Topsoil, which is high in organic matter, fertility and soil life, is
relocated elsewhere "on-site" where it builds up over time or is carried "off-site" where it fills in
drainage channels. Soil erosion reduces cropland productivity and contributes to the pollution
of adjacent watercourses, wetlands, and lakes.
Soil erosion can be a slow process that continues relatively unnoticed or can occur at an
alarming rate, causing serious loss of topsoil. Soil compaction, low organic matter, loss of soil
structure, poor internal drainage, salinisation, and soil acidity problems are other serious soil
degradation conditions that can accelerate the soil erosion process. The greater the intensity
and duration of a rain storm, the higher the erosion potential. The impact of raindrops on the
soil surface can break down soil aggregates and disperse the aggregate material.
Lighter aggregate materials such as very fine sand, silt, clay and organic matter are easily
removed by the raindrop splash and runoff water; greater raindrop energy or runoff amounts
are required to move larger sand and gravel particles.
Soil movement by rainfall (raindrop splash) is usually greatest and most noticeable during
short-duration, high-intensity thunderstorms. Although the erosion caused by long lasting and
less-intense storms is not usually as spectacular or noticeable as that produced during
thunderstorms, the amount of soil loss can be significant, especially when compounded over
time.
Data of soil erosion is not available for this district as remote sensing based soil erosion
potential map, data attached and there is no sedimentary monitoring station.

1.7 Land Use Pattern:
"Land use is characterised by the arrangements, activities and inputs people undertake in a
certain land cover type to produce, change or maintain it". Any given area of land is usually
used to satisfy multiple objectives or purposes. Land use information provides answers to one
or more of the following questions concerning the current use of the land :
What: the purpose of activities undertaken - e.g. the specific products and services, that
are sought
Where: the geographic location and extent of the spatial unit under consideration
When: the temporal aspects of various activities undertaken - e.g. the sequence of carried
out operations like planting, weeding, etc.
How: the technologies employed - e.g. technological inputs/ materials such as fertilizer,
irrigation, labor, etc.
How much: quantitative measures - e.g. areas, products
Why: the reasons underlying the current land use – e.g. land tenure, labour costs, market
conditions, etc.

Chapter – II : District Water Profile
Irrigation is the artificial application of water to the land or soil. It is used to assist in the
growing of agricultural crops, maintenance of landscapes, and re-vegetation of disturbed soils
in dry areas and during periods of inadequate rainfall. There is a great necessity of irrigation in
agriculture. Due to some reasons irrigation is needed for agriculture.
Uncertainty of Monsoon rainfall both in time and place.
Irregularity in distribution of rainfall throughout the year.
Excessive rainfall causing flood.
Draught is an annual event in some areas.
India is a land of Rabi Crops. But there is not rainfall in winter months.
Some soils need more water.
Introduction of H.Y.V seeds and multiple cropping need water throughout the year.
The types of Irrigation mainly practiced in Indore district are:
Tanks:
(a) Irrigation Tanks (b) Earthen Dams (c) Stop Dams (d) Check Dams (e) Farm Ponds
Well :
(a) Dug Well (b) Tube Well: (i) Shallow. (ii) Deep.
Canal :
(a) Perennial (b) Non-Perennial
2.1 Crop water Requirement
Crop water requirement is the water required by the plants for its survival, growth,
development and to produce economic parts. This requirement is applied either naturally by
precipitation or artificially by irrigation. Hence the crop water requirement includes all losses
like:
a) Transpiration loss through leaves (T)
b) Evaporation loss through soil surface in cropped area (E)
c) Amount of weather used by plants (WP) for its metabolic activities which is estimated less
than 1% of the total water absorption. These three components cannot be separated so easily.
Hence the ET loss is taken as crop water use or crop water consumptive use.
d) Other application losses are conveyance loss, percolation loss, runoff loss, etc., (WL).
e) The water required for special purposes (WSP) like puddling operation, ploughing operation,
land preparation, leaching, requirement, for the purpose of weeding, for dissolving fertilizer
and chemical, etc. Hence the water requirement is symbolically represented as:
WR = T + E + WP + WL + WSP
(The other application losses and special purposes are mostly indented for wet land cultivation.
Hence for irrigated dry land crop the ET loss alone is accounted for crop water requirement).
The estimations of the water requirement of crop are one of the basic needs for crop planning
on the farm and for the planning of any irrigation project.

Chapter – III : Water Availability
3. Status of Water Availability
3.1 Surface Water:
Rivers, lakes and manmade reservoirs are the main sources of surface water abstraction.
Narmada river and Yashwant Sagar Dam on the Gambhir river are the two raw water sources
for Indore city. Narmada WTP and Devdharan WTP draw raw water from the Narmada river
and the Yashwant Sagar Dam respectively.
I. Narmada River : The Narmada is a perennial river. River water is pumped to intake well in
the riverbed. At the vicinity of intake well, no human activity was observed and source is well
protected. The raw water is pumped to Narmada WTP at Jalud, which is at a distance of 3 km
from the source. Being a perennial river and considering the present river water utilization
pattern, raw water quantity is sufficient to meet the future demand.
II. Yashwant Sagar Dam: Yashwant Sagar Dam is constructed on Gambhir River and is the
raw water source for Devdharan WTP, which is at about 8 km from the source. Gambhir River
is not perennial and storage of water in the dam depends on monsoon. During lean season
water flow has to be diverted to the pumping house by constructing bunding and channelizing
the water from ponds in the riverbed. Even in winter, there is no sufficient raw water available
to run the plant at its full capacity. During summer and monsoon of the year 2002, the plant
was totally closed. Yashwant Sagar Dam is not the dependable raw water source. The source is
well protected as there is neither industrial pollution nor human and animal accessibility in the
vicinity of the pumping station.
Table 3.1 reveals that total 0.9121 BCM water available from different sources of the district.
Out of total water availability surface irrigation availability are 0.38887 BCM and ground
water availability are 0.52314 BCM. Surface irrigation sources are Canal (Major & Medium
Irrigation), Minor Irrigation Tanks, Various water bodies and Perennial source of water.

Chart 13 : Contribution of surface and ground water resources.
3.2 Status of Ground Water Availability
Groundwater represents one of the most important water sources in the district. Due to the
highly variable nature of the climate, groundwater has become a popular alternative for
irrigation and domestic water use across the district. Reliance on groundwater resources is
particularly strong where dry season surface water levels are low or where wet season flows are
too disruptive to be easily tapped.

Ground Water 0.5231457.36%
Unit = BCM
District Irrigation Plan, District-Indore, Madhya Pradesh 48
3.2.1 Ground Water Quality
Ground water quality in Indore district is assessed annually by CGWB on the basis of water
samples collected from hydrograph stations in the district. Ground water in the district is
generally medium to high saline as electric conductivity values varies between 586 to 3780
μs/cm. Nitrate in the ground water of Indore district is varying between 0.5 to 296 mg/l. Nitrate
more than 45 mg/l was found in four villages namely Sanwer (52 mg/l), Hatod (79 mg/l), Machal
(139 mg/l) and Ushapura (177 mg/l). High nitrate in the village area is apparently due to
excessive use of fertilizers and agricultural waste. The total hardness of ground water in the
district is generally under safe limit as per BIS standards. Ground water of Machal, Sanwer
and Ushapura village is not safe for drinking. Fluoride in the district is in the range of 0.12 to
0.48 mg/l, i.e. well below 1.5 mg/l. No arsenic has been detected in the district.
3.2.2 Ground Water Status
Dynamic ground water resources of the district have been estimated for base year -2008/09 on
block-wise basis. There are four number of assessment units (block) in the district which fall
under non-command (99 %) and command (1.% Mhow and Depalpur) sub units. Mhow block of
the district is categorized as semi critical and Depalpur , Indore and Sanwer as over exploited.
The highest stage of ground water development is computed as 148 % in Indore block. The net
ground water availability in the district is 52,314 ham and ground water draft for all uses is
65,620 ham, making stage of ground water development 125 % (104 % in 2003/04) as a whole
for district. After making allocation for future domestic and industrial supply for next 25 years,
balance available ground water for future irrigation would be negative.

Chapter – IV : Water Requirement / Demand
4.1 Domestic Water Demand
According to Froukh the term „domestic water demand‟ is the amount of water required for
domestic uses. Water demand forecasting is essential to water utilities, both for day-to-day
operations and for long-term planning. A number of factors like climate, culture, food habits,
work and working conditions, level and type of development, and physiology determine the
requirement of water. As per the Bureau of Indian Standards, a minimum water supply of 200
litres per capita per day (lpcd) should be provided for domestic consumption in cities with full
flushing systems. It also mentions that the amount of water supply may be reduced to 135 lpcd
for the LIG and the economically weaker sections (EWS) of the society and in small towns.

4.2 Crop Water Demand:
Crop Water Requirement is defined as, "The quantity of water required by a crop in a given
period of time for normal growth under field conditions." It includes evaporation and other
unavoidable wastes. Usually water requirement for crop is expressed in water depth per unit
area. Naturally different crops may have different water requirements at different places of the
same country, depending upon the climate, type of soil, method of cultivation, effective rain etc.
The total water required for crop growth is not uniformly distributed over its entire life span
which is also called crop period. Actually, the watering stops same time before harvest and the
time duration from the first irrigation during sowing up to the last before harvest is called base
period. Though crop period is slightly more than the base period, they do not differ from
practical purposes. The total depth of water required to raise a crop over a unit area of land is
usually called delta.
The following are the factors which affect on the water requirements of the crops,
Climate
Type of Crop
Water table
Ground Slope
Intensity of Irrigation
Conveyance Losses
Type of soil
Subsoil water
Age of canal
Position of FSL w.r.t to NSL
Amount of Silt carried by canal
Wetted perimeter
Method of Application of water
Method of Ploughing
Crop Period
Base Period
Delta of a Crop
Some typical values of delta for common crops in some regions of India are as follows:

4.3 Livestock Water Demand:
Global trend in animal production indicates a rapid and massive increase in theconsumption of
livestock products. It is predicted that meat and milk consumption will grow at 2.8 and 3.3% per
annum, respectively, in developing countries like India where the whole system of rural economy has
revolved around livestock production. Providing enough quality water is essential for good livestock
husbandry. Water makes up 80% of the blood, regulates body temperature and is vital for organ
functions such as digestion, waste removal and the absorption of nutrients. Understanding daily
livestock watering needs is key when designing a livestock watering system.
The daily water requirement of livestock varies significantly among animal species. The animal's
size and growth stage will have a strong influence on daily water intake. Consumption rates can be
affected by environmental and management factors. Air temperature, relative humidity and the level
of animal exertion or production level are examples of these factors. The quality of the water, which
includes temperature, salinity and impurities affecting taste and odour, will also have an effect. The
water content of the animal's diet will influence its drinking habits. Feed with relatively high
moisture content decreases the quantity of drinking water required.
Given that drinking water needs are species-, farm- and management-specific, many producers today
are opting to install water-metering equipment to obtain accurate measurements of water use. If
medication is ever provided through the livestock's watering system, the meter can be used to ensure
proper dose rates.
Table 4.3.1 shows the average water use by different category of animals.

Number of livestock in Indore district as per 2011 census is 671740. Estimation is done based on
livestock water demand which is different for types of animals. There is no additional water
requirement as stored water is more than water requirement. 25% of water is reserved for this
purpose in all current and future structures.

4.4 Industrial Water Demand:
Indore is known as a commercial capital of Madhya Pradesh. He name Indore is due to its deity
Indreshwar. Indore is one of the richest cities in central India and also known as "Mini
Mumbai" among native people of Indore, due to its lifestyle similarities with Mumbai. It also
reflects Mumbai's potpourri of cultures, with significant Marwari, Marathi, North Indians and
Sindhi populations. Indore is administered by the Indore Municipal Corporation. Some of the
regions surrounding the city are administered by the Indore Development Authority (IDA). The
IMC was established in 1956 under the Madhya Pradesh Nagar Palika Nigam Adhiniyam. For
administrative purposes, the city is divided into 69 wards. These wards have been further
divided into 11 zones. Indore is a Loksabha constituency and has 9 assembly seats. Indore is
the administrative centre and chief city of the district. Mhow is an important cantonment town
in Indore District, it has three of the Indian Army's premier training institutes. The Border

Chapter – V : Strategic Action Plan
Water is essential for sustaining life and at the same time, it is an important component
for almost all developmental plans. Obviously the schemes for development of water resources
for beneficial use of the society have been taken up since the time immemorial. Considerable
progress has been made in respect of water resources development in India after independence
through various Plans and such developments have helped in almost five fold increase in
creation of irrigation potential. Total created irrigation potential at pre-Plan period was about
22.6 million hectares (Mha) which at present is about 108.2 Mha. There has also been
appreciable development in the areas of drinking water supply and other uses. However,
growing population, urbanization and industrialization has led to considerable increase in
demand of water for various purposes e.g., irrigation, domestic needs, industrial requirements
etc.
In this regard, it may be mentioned that the water sector has very strong linkages with
all other developmental activities. In view of fast changing development scenario, it is
emphasized that the key priorities and identified strategies cannot be considered as static and
firm. These need to be reviewed and improved upon from time to time. In this regard a
comprehensive “Strategic Plan for District Irrigation” has been prepared through geospatial
approach:
5.1. Methodology
Different department in district already involved in planning and execution of water
harvesting/ conservation interventions through different scheme. In PMKSY scheme, all
departments are synergised to develop their strategy at jointly. Regular workshops and
meeting were organized to coordinate all departmental activities for transforming their
interventions to PMKSY activities. All departments prepare their irrigation plan and a
comprehensive District Irrigation Plan is prepare by incorporating all departmental plans of
the district.
Prioritization of Blocks and activity for Strategic Planning :
The prioritization is the heart of the programme in which any programme will be implemented.
Some of the important activities to be included in first phase or first year and some of the
activity included in last year or last phase. For prioritization of the activity and block fallowing
criteria has been adopted.
1. Map the present situation.
2. Talk to local peoples and public representatives.
3. Availability of Resources.
4. Poverty Index.
5. Percentage of SC & ST Population.
6. Percentage of Farmers.
7. Cropping Intensity.
8. Ground Water Situation.
9. Available of Degraded Land.
10. Land Capability Status.
11. Percentage of Irrigated area to total cropped area.
On the basis of the above criteria the following department of district identify the activities and
prepared component wise action plan for their department. All departmental activities were
reviewed in joint meeting of all department headed be collector.
District Irrigation Plan, District-Indore, Madhya Pradesh 63
Departments in Indore district focused on following activities:
1. Ministry of Water Resource – Department of Water Resource
Har Khet Ko Pani –
Creation of new water sources through Minor Irrigation (both surface and ground water)
Repair, restoration and renovation of water bodies; strengthening carrying capacity of
traditional water sources, construction rain water harvesting structures (Jal Sanchay);
Command area development, strengthening and creation of distribution network from
source to the farm;
Improvement in water management and distribution system for water bodies to take
advantage of the available source which is not tapped to its fullest capacity (deriving
benefits from low hanging fruits). At least 10% of the command area to be covered under
micro/precision irrigation.
Diversion of water from source of different location where it is plenty to nearby water scarce
areas, lift irrigation from water bodies/rivers at lower elevation to supplement requirements
beyond IWMP and MGNREGS irrespective of irrigation command.
2. Ministry of Rural Development – Department of Land Resources.
PMKSY- Watershed Development :
Water harvesting structures such as check dams, nala bund, farm ponds, tanks etc.
Capacity building, entry point activities, ridge area treatment, drainage line treatment, soil
and moisture conservation, nursery raising, afforestation, horticulture, pasture
development, livelihood activities for the asset-less persons and production system & micro
enterprises for small and marginal farmers etc.
Effective rainfall management like field bunding, contour bunding/trenching, staggered
trenching, land levelling, mulching etc.
Convergence with MGNREGA
Water harvesting structures such as check dams, nala bund, farm ponds, tanks etc.
Land Development activities i.e Field Bund.
Renovation of Water Bodies, De-siltation of tradition water bodies, rivers etc.
3. Ministry of Agriculture – Department of Farmers Welfare & Agriculture Development
Per Drop More Crop :
Programme management, preparation of District Irrigation Plan, approval of annual action
plan, Monitoring etc.
Promoting efficient water conveyance and precision water application devices like drips,
sprinklers, pivots, rain-guns in the farm (Jal Sinchan);
Topping up of input cost particularly under civil construction beyond permissible limit
(40%), under MGNREGS for activities like lining inlet, outlet, silt traps, distribution system
etc.
Construction of micro irrigation structures to supplement source creation activities
including tube wells and dug wells (in areas where ground water is available and not under
semi critical /critical /over exploited category of development) which are not supported
under PMKSY (WR), PMKSY (Watershed) and MGNREGS.
Secondary storage structures at tail end of canal system to store water when available in
abundance (rainy season) or from perennial sources like streams for use during dry periods
through effective on-farm water management;

measures including cropping alignment to maximise use of available water including
rainfall and minimise irrigation requirement (Jal sarankchan);
Capacity building, training for encouraging potential use water source through
technological, agronomic and management practices including community irrigation.
Awareness campaign on water saving technologies, practices, programmes etc.,
organisation of workshops, conferences, publication of booklets, pamphlets, success stories,
documentary, advertisements etc.
Improved/innovative distribution system like pipe and box outlet system with controlled
outlet and other activities of enhancing water use efficiency.
