Political expediency<\/strong> (short-sightedness or actions taken for immediate political gain<\/strong>) must not be allowed to drive mega projects<\/p>\n\n\n\n Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagging off work on the Ken-Betwa river interlinking project signalled that the national government is unbothered by the wide-ranging opposition to it. At a budgeted cost of \u20b944,605 crore, the project will draw supposedly \u201cexcess\u201d water away from the Ken river basin towards the Betwa river basin and thereon to farmland and human settlements. When the Union Cabinet approved the project in 2021, the National Green Tribunal was still deliberating<\/strong> (considering or discussing carefully<\/strong>) a challenge to its green clearance. This was typical of the state\u2019s tendency to pardon businesses found in violation of environmental laws after they had made considerable investments. The government itself has ignored critical comments from experts, including members of an empowered committee appointed by the Supreme Court, and bypassed<\/strong> (ignored or circumvented<\/strong>) due process. The law has strict terms for allowing hydroelectric power projects in ecologically sensitive areas \u2014 the Daudhan Dam will be erected inside the Panna Tiger Reserve \u2014 but there is little evidence of such scrutiny. Work on the dam will destroy lakhs of trees and destabilise fragile ecosystems. The government has also refused to release hydrological<\/strong> (relating to the science of water flow and distribution<\/strong>) data of the basins claiming they are sensitive by virtue of being subsets of the international Ganga basin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That a river interlink will water fields and quench thirst is irrefutable, but for how long? Various studies have asserted that the Ken and the Betwa basins suffer floods and droughts together, that the subcontinent\u2019s rainfall and sedimentation patterns stand to be altered, and that the Betwa basin can be replenished more affordably by maintaining environmental flows and bolstering natural storage. The government\u2019s principal claim is that the Ken and the Betwa basins are respectively water-surplus and water-deficient. This is disingenuous<\/strong> (not sincere or misleading<\/strong>): the Betwa basin is water-deficient strictly because it hosts several lakh hectares of irrigated cropland. Should the demand in the Ken basin increase, both areas will suffer. Experts have instead suggested that the project is a ploy to pacify the electorate<\/strong> (voters<\/strong>) in Bundelkhand \u2014 as its approval months ahead of State polls in Uttar Pradesh also suggested \u2014 and\/or to improve water supply to reservoirs in the lower Betwa thanks to other upstream blockades<\/strong> (obstructions or barriers<\/strong>). The project seems more the product of political expediency and self-image than current ecological sense. The more resources the government sinks into it, the more unlikely changing or reversing course will become in the face of adverse<\/strong> (harmful or unfavorable<\/strong>) developments. When they come to pass, the responsibility and costs of mitigating the adverse consequences of this and other projects, including the recently launched Parbati-Kalisindh-Chambal link, will fall to the people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Upskill yourself and enhance your vocabulary knowledge.
