Irrigation Projects
There are 478 number of medium or major
irrigation projects as per India-WRIS database commanding of about 36.12
percent total geographical area of the basin. Nearly half of this command
area falls in Uttar Pradesh which, at 97.13 percent coverage, is almost
entirely blanketed by irrigation projects. Though Bihar has second largest
command area (59,392 Sq.km.), Haryana has second highest command area
(38,683 Sq.km) in terms of percentage geographical area (87.5 %). The Madhya
Pradesh state, despite having the most overall projects with 364, achieves
only the third highest total command area at about 48,628 Sq.km and a mere
15.78 percent coverage due to the fact that most of its projects are of a
medium size. Where as, Himachal Pradesh area has the least irrigation
command area that is 0.64 percent of its total geographic area.
The major and medium irrigation projects in
the basin are distributed like 107 MMIR projects in Uttar Pradesh, 98
projects in Rajasthan, 82 projects in Madhya Pradesh, 77 projects in
Jharkhand, 56 projects in Bihar, 31 projects in West Bengal, 12 in
Uttarakhand, 6 projects in Haryana, 4 projects in Chhattisgarh, and one
project in Himachal Pradesh. Some of the major irrigation projects in Ganga
basin are Sutlej-Yamuna Canal Major Irrigation Project (Haryana), Sarda
Canal Major Irrigation Project (Uttar Pradesh), Saryu Nahar Pariyojana Major
Irrigation Project (Uttar Pradesh), Ramganga Canal Major irrigation Project
(Uttar Pradesh). The more details of each Major and Medium Irrigation

irrigation schemes. The Yamuna Lower sub-basin contains the maximum 7 lift
schemes out of which six are in Uttar Pradesh and one in Madhya Pradesh.
They are Augasi, Kishanpur, Yamuna, Chillimal, Umarahat and Jarauli Lift
Irrigation Schemes are in Uttar Pradesh and Renhat Lift Irrigation Scheme in
Madhya Pradesh. The Yamuna Upper sub-basin contains only one lift irrigation
scheme i.e. Jawahar Lal Nehru Lift Irrigation Scheme Stage III, IV, V, VI,
VII and VIII. The Ghaghara confluence to Gomti confluence also has 7
different Lift Irrigation Scheme namely Zamania, Narainpur, Deokali, Larma,
Chausa, Karamnasa and Gyanpur Lift Irrigation Scheme. The next maximum lifts
schemes are in Ghaghara sub-basin with 6 lift schemes and they are Sarju
Lift Irrigation Scheme Stage- I & II, Kwano, Tanda, Gola and Dohrighat Lift
Irrigation Scheme.
The Chambal Lift Irrigation Scheme with Stage
I and Stage - II are the only major irrigation scheme in the Chambal lower
sub-basin and Parwan Lift Irrigation Scheme is the only major irrigation
scheme in the Chambal upper sub-basin. Three irrigation schemes come under
Gandak and other sub-basin are Surajgarh Lift Irrigation Scheme,
Bateshwarasthan Lift Irrigation Scheme Phase- I Stage- I & II and
Dhakranalla Lift Irrigation Scheme Phase-I Stage- I & II and Phase II
Stage-I. The Sone sub-basin has majorly two irrigation schemes specifically
Gopad and Sone Lift Irrigation Scheme Stage- I, II, III and IV. In Tons and
Upstream of Gomti confluence to Muzaffarnagar two each irrigation schemes
exist and they are Tons, Dhoba Lift Irrigation Scheme and Bhupali Lift
Irrigation Scheme, Dalmau Lift Irrigation Scheme Stage- I, II respectively.
