ANYWAY

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.

...Build anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.

...Be honest and frank anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.

...Do good anyway.

Your kindness may be treated as your weakness.

...Still be kind.

Indira Gandhi Nahar Project

Indira Gandhi Nahar Project (IGNP) is one of the most gigantic projects in the world aiming to dedesertify and transform desert waste land into agriculturally productive area. The project objectives include drought proofing, providing drinking water, improvement of environment, afforestation, employment, rehabilitation, development and projection of animal wealth and increasing agricultural produce.

The project construction commenced in the year 1958. Though the project is only partially complete it has shown remarkable success.

Indira Gandhi Nahar Project was designed to utilise 9,367 Mm3/yr of the total 10,608 Mm3/yr allocated to Rajasthan from the surplus waters of the Ravi and Beas rivers. The construction of the project has been divided into two stages.

Stage I

Stage I consists of a 204 km long feeder canal, having a headworks discharge capacity of 460 m3/sec, which starts from Harike Barrage. 170 km of the feeder canal lie in Punjab and Haryana and 34 km in Rajasthan.

The entire system of stage-I consists of the 204 km long feeder canal, 189km long main canal and 3454 km long distribution system, is concrete lined, and serves 553 kha of culturable command area, out of which 46 kha are served by pumping to a 60 m lift, through four pumping stations.

In addition to irrigation and domestic water supply through this project , it has been proposed by the Rajasthan State Electricity Board (RSEB) to install a total of 12.76 MW of mini hydro electric power stations, to utilise the available water fall in the canal. One such power station, with an installed capacity of 2´2 MW has already started functioning at the Suratgarh branch of IGNP stage I.

Stage II

IGNP Stage II comprises construction of a 256 km long main canal and 5,606 km of a lined distribution system, and will serve 1,410 kha of CCA (873577 ha area in flow and 537018 ha under lift), utilising 4,930 Mm3/yr of water. The main canal in the entire length was completed in the year 1986.


Bikaner Canal (Gang Canal

The Gang Canal was constructed in 1920-26 as a part of the Sutlej Valley Project which was undertaken jointly by the Govt. of Punjab, the State of Bhawalpur and the State of Bikaner. The authorized full supply discharge of the Gang Canal was kept 2144 Cs.

Soon after the constrction of Bikaner Canal was started, it was felt that some additional supplies would be available during Kharif period and therefore two non-perennial channels were added. The authorised full supply discharge of canal was increased to 2720 Cs.

After partition the Sutlej valley component was completely omitted in calculating the share to be delivered to Pakistan and as such some additional quantity of water became available for utilisation in Indian Canals i.e. Bikaner canal and Eastern Canal.

In 1960 the Indo Pakistan Treaty came into force and according to this treaty,the share of Pakistan Canals to be delivered below Ferozepur included the Sutlej component also . The Gang Canal was therefore reduced to its pre partition allocation only.

Thus after the signing of Indus Treaty, the Sutlej component which consisted mainly of losses and gains between Ropar and Ferozepur was included in the distributable pool and was no longer available to Gang Canal.

The Gang Canal (AFSQ 2720 Cs. Perennial) was getting supplies from Ferozepur Headworks upto 1955. After the construction of Harike Barrage during 1955, the Bikaner Canal is getting supplies partially through Ferozepur Headworks and through Ferozpur Feeder. The Bikaner Canal has its pre partition share of 1.11 MAF annually.

2- Indira Gandhi Nehar Feeder (Rajastan Feeder) After the construction of Harike Barrage, Rajasthan is getting its Ravi Beas waters through Indira Gandhi Feeder (which started irrigation on a non perennial basis in 1961 and such irrigation has been gradually increasing as more areas are brought under command) having full supply discharge of 18500 Cs.

As per 1981 agreement, Rajasthan is entitled to use 8.0 MAF out of surplus Ravi Beas waters against 8.60 MAF share quota. Now Rajasthan is in a position to use its full share 8.6 MAF, the matter has been taken up with the Punjab authorities as well as with BBMB, for restoring its 0.6 MAF water presently being utilised by Punjab.

Gang Canal Project

Gang Canal is one of the oldest irrigation systems in Rajasthan, completed in the year 1928, to serve the north-western part of Ganganagar District.

Gang Canal starts from Sutlej river near Harike, downstream of the confluence of River Beas, in Punjab, and conveys into Rajasthan some 1,780 Mm3/yr, serving an area of 308 kha. The length of the Feeder Canal, from Harike to Rajasthan border, is 112 km. The headworks discharge capacity of the Canal is 77 m3/sec. The total length of the Canal system, including the feeder canal is 1,363 km. The canal was originally lined with lime concrete, but with the passage of time the lining has deteriorated, and at present a modernisation program is in progress to improve the utilisation of the available water.

The soulful voice

[] By: Poonam Deviah His voice has the depth and the pain that just cuts across the heart and leaves a lasting impression. It is then no wonder that he is called the 'King of Ghazals.' Jagjit Singh today is the undisputed and most popular of Indian Ghazal singers. His was a relentless struggle with a lot of ups and downs. Born in Rajasthan on the 8th of February1941, he did his schooling from Khalsa High School, SriGanganagar. He passed his Inter in Science stream from Government College, Sri Ganganagar. He graduated in the Arts stream from DAV College, Jalandhar. He also acquired a Post Graduate Degree in history from Kurukshetra University, Haryana. He first learnt music under Pandit Chaganlal Sharma for two years in Sri Ganganagar. After which for another six years he trained under Ustad Jamaal Khan of Sainia Gharana, under whom he learnt all forms of Indian ClassicalMusic - Khayal, Thumri and Drupad. Jagjit Singh Ghazal is a form of Light Indian Classical music. They churn up a whole lot of emotions and is capable of tapping every sentiment with poise and grace. It is this art that Jagjit Singh mastered and specialized in. In 1965 he made his way to the city of dreams, 'Mumbai,' to realize his dreams and give the world a voice that would leave its mark for generations to come. He saw success after a long and hard struggle. He is a standing example for a fighter who shows us that success never comes easy and hard work never fails. He came in as a struggler and after the struggle, had India swooning to his voice. People only wanted more from him. His became the 'unforgettable voice.' Love happened to him during his struggling days. He met and fell in love with Chitra, (his wife now) another struggling singer from Bengal in 1965. Music brought them together. Jagjit started accompanying Chitra on her rounds to music directors, as both of them were strugglers in Mumbai. Both of them used to sing jingles for advertisements. Ghazals further brought them together. He gives the credit of him being a musician to Chitra. Jagjit and Chitra tied the knot in 1969, after which they started giving Ghazal performances together. The Jagjit-Chitra pair soon caught on. Jagjit Singh however brought out his first album, 'The Unforgettables in 1976. After this he brought out a good number of albums, some of which are Marasim, Echoes, Mirage and Insight. His repertoire includes the writings of Ghalib, Qateel Shifai, Sudarshan Fakeer and Nida Fazli. The duo brought out some memorable albums. However the sudden death of their only son, Vivek Singh, brought an end to Chitra's singing career. She hasn't sung since. 'Someone Somewhere' was the last album of Jagjit and Chitra together. Jagjit Singh has also played an active part in shaping the careers of Talat Aziz and Vinod Sehgal. He is always active in philanthropic activities like the Library at St.Mary's, Bombay Hospital, CRY, and ALMA, an organization whose focus is to adopt students for further education and development. He has also won several awards including the Sahitya Akademi Award in 1998 for popularising Ghalib. The Madhya Pradesh government honoured him with the Lata Mangeshkar Samman in 1998.
