Salient Features

It is proposed to draw 150 MLD raw water for drinking purpose from the Song dam through gravity flow.

Year Demand (MLD) Supply (MLD) Total Supply (MLD) Deficit (MLD)
    Tubewell    Surface Water    
2023 213 155           54 209 4
2051 336 155           54 209 127
2071 445 155           54 209 236

Ancillary Benefits:

  • Saving in electric power due to anticipated increase of tubewells.
  • Tourism.
  • Recharging of ground water table.
  • Flood Mitigation.
