State Resources<\/a>“>Water Resources<\/a> department (WRD) minister Sanjay Kumar Jha on Friday sought financial support from the Centre under the 90:10 ratio formula for the Kosi-Mechi intra-linking river project in north Bihar.<\/p>\n

The Kosi-Mechi project has already got Centres clearance, but the resolution of its financial aspects was in the process. While it is an ambitious project of the Bihar government, the WRD has also identified three other intra-river linking projects, including for south Bihar, to address the flood and drought mitigation concerns.<\/p>\n

The project is purported to mitigate flood problem and also provide water for Irrigation<\/a> purposes to four eastern Bihar districts.
Stating that CM Nitish Kumar has been working on a broad vision pegged to the flood-drought mitigation, Jha also thanked the Centre for considering three other intra-linking of Bagmati-Ganga, Budhi Gandak-Noon-Baya and Bagmati-Budhi Gandak rivers projects in north Bihar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
