CIRCULATION OF DRAFT RIVER BASIN MANAGEMENT BILL, 2018

FOR PUBLIC CONSULTATION

The 2nd Administrative Reforms Commission’s 7th Report titled “Capacity

Building for Conflict Resolution-Fiction to Fusion” (February 2008) has

recommended that River Basin Organisations (RBOs) should be set up for each

inter-State river, as proposed by the Report of the National Commission for

Integrated Water resources Development, 1999 by enacting a legislation to replace

the River Boards Act, 1956. The Ministry after holding detailed deliberations has

come out with draft River Basin Management Bill, 2018.

The draft River Basin Management Bill proposes optimum development

of inter-State rivers by facilitating inter-State coordination ensuring scientific planning

of land and water resources taking basin/sub-basin as unit with unified perspectives

of water in all its forms (including soil moisture, ground and surface water) and

ensuring comprehensive and balanced development of both catchment and

command areas. The draft Bill proposed to establish 13 River Basin Authorities

forvarious river basins of the country. It is expected that enactment of the proposed

legislation would result in optimum integrated development and management of

inter-State River waters with basin approach and will result in change of environment

from the one of conflicts to that of cooperation.

A copy of the draft Bill is placed below. Comments/ suggestions on the

above Bill are invited from the general public at large. The comments/suggestions on

the draft Bill may be sent latest by 5th November at the following email address
