EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Integrated Watershed Management Program (IWMP) was extended to the plain areas of Punjab during 2012-13. In the year 2013-14 IWMP Jalandhar-V was approved for Shahkot and Lohian Blocks of the district. The preparation of DPR for IWMP – V Jalandhar was awarded to the Society for Promotion and Conservation of Environment (SPACE) after a competitive bidding vide Divisional Soil Conservation Officer Jalandhar No.1418 dated 2.9.2014. The field work on the preparation of DPR was carried out by the SPACE team under the leadership of Dr.S.S.Grewal, the president of SPACE from September to Mid December 2014. The report at hand covers the salient details of this project covering 30 revenue villages 7 from Shahkot and 23 from Lohian Block. After providing background of IWMP its framework, components, strategy in general, the details of project and methodology adopted a detail of all the components and village wise budgetary provisions have been made in the report.
The total geographical area of the project is 6684ha out of which 5024ha has been
taken for treatment at a cost of Rs.603.00lakh @Rs.12000/ha. All the villages are in
a compact block situated on the left and right side of Chitti Bein Rivulet starting near
Malsian and ending at Village Mundi Kalu where Bein joins the Satluj River. The area
is located from Lat. E 310-08‟-17.62” to 310-08‟-20.793” and Long.N 750-6‟-32.855” to
750-24‟-13.619”. Most of villages are linked by net work of rural roads.
The total population of the project area is 27303 (14136 male & 13167 female) spread over 4082 families as per 2011 census. The SC population is 8097 which is 29.6% of the total population. Wheat and paddy are the main crops in lower flood plain tube-well irrigated area. But wheat-Maize/sorghum fodder is tha main crop rotation in upper sloping and mostly rainfed area. The area was inundated by Satluj River in earlier times but now protection bunds have been constructed along the banks and problem has been solved. The main problems identified in the project area include stagnating water of already silted village ponds, fast depleting groundwater, burning of paddy stubbles, and lack of employment opportunities for educated youth and lack of educational institutions in the project area. The depth to ground water table varies from 5to 10m in lower and 35m – 50m in upper area. Most of the area is drained towards Satluj River through Chitti Bein. The project area receives about 700mm as mean annual rainfall with semi-arid climate.
The methodology adopted for the DPR preparation has been outlined which include bench mark survey and resource inventory, participatory rural appraisal, formation of watershed committee, usage of primary and secondary data for planning project components, preparation of action plan and approval and compilation of DPR as per the guidelines of DoLR. A provision of 10% has been made for Flexi-Funds as per recent communication of DoLR. The basic records of the project area collected from diverse sources have been included in the report. The communities were sensitized about the aim and objectives of the project/components/methodology of operation and roles and responsibilities of all the stakeholders. In the transit walks the activities were identified after holding detailed discussions. The measurements were taken and cost estimates prepared following prevalent schedule of rates. The cost norms for each component were worked out along with detailed drawings and estimates which were discussed with the field units and adopted.
7
Entry Point Activities, Natural Resource Management, Production System, Institution and Capacity Building and Livelihood Support System have been covered with respect to all the villages based upon the budgetary provision made for each village. The Entry Point Activities worked out @3.6% of the budget have been provided at a total cost of Rs.21.70lakh which includes the provision of concrete flooring of streets, repair of Dharamsala, solar lights, retaining walls along kacha paths to improve mobility. After obtaining resolutions from the WC, the plans and estimates have been sent for approval and works will be executed during the first year of the project.
Under NRM component, the budgetary provision comes to Rs.303.85lakh @50.4% of the budget and some provision has been made to meet the cost under MNREGA where there was short fall in funds. The NRM component mainly included the renovation, de-siltation, retaining walls of village ponds and provision of underground pipelines for irrigation using pond water. The second main activity is construction of lined open channels for disposal of rain and sludge water to ponds. First class brick work has been provided for civil works after discussions with PIA. In the Institution and Capacity Building, different training programs for various categories of staff, WCs and SHGs have been chalked out and institutions where these programs would be carried out have been indicated.
In the Production System, the demands of the community for clonel eucalyptus, fruit plants for homesteads, seeds of improved crop varieties, camps for animal health care have been met with by making a provision of Rs.54.26lakhs on these activities. The Livelihood Support System mainly include seed money to support revolving fund assistance to 64 SHGs proposed based on the SC/ST population, support to 52 enterprising individuals, arrangements for 53 cutting and tailoring courses and 3 computer centres in villages having larger share of funds at a cost of Rs.34.18 lakhs.. In addition, grant in aid to enterprising SHGs and federations have been made with a provision of Rs.14.65 lakh. The budgetary provisions have been made for all the components and duly phased over a period of five years as per norms of DoLR.
The decisions taken during PRA meetings have been reported with photographs of participants and also indicative status of ponds. Separate meetings were held with women members and the interested members who wanted to form SHGs and they introduced to the PIA staff. During transit walk, the measurements of ponds were taken and on the basis of these measurements, detailed estimates of retaining walls based on 1.0 and 1.5m height was prepared. The detailed estimate of underground pipelines, lined open channels have been made with proper drawing and costs worked out following the prevalent cost norms and schedule of rates. Some of the information on socio economic data, village wise GPS locations, maps and Performa used for collecting project activities during meetings has been annexed. The report also covers a detailed discussion on consolidation phase, monitoring, evaluation, flexi-funds and expected outcomes.
The DPR was prepared in consultation and participation of the Project Implementing Agency (PIA) i.e. the staff of the Divisional Soil Conservation Office Jalandhar and technical expert of WCDC Mr Jagir Singh Doll.

CHAPTER – I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF INTEGRATED WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
Out of the total geographical area of the country of 329 million hectare (Mha), about
146Mha is degraded and 85Mha is rainfed arable land. This includes degraded land
not only under private ownership, but also the one with the departments of
panchayat, revenue and forest. All these lands are prioritized for development under
various watershed development projects under these guidelines. During the 11th Five
Year Plan, major thrust has been laid on developing the untreated areas. Soil and
water are the basic natural resources essential for the development of an agrarian
economy in India. All out efforts were made to conserve soil and water resources to
increase production potential as an effort towards food security and poverty
alleviation. Previous experiences have shown that for gaining maximum advantages
in terms of sustainable development, the activities should be undertaken in a
comprehensive way on watershed basis by following principles of participatory and
integrated watershed management.
Key features of IWMP are as:-
Centrality on community participation
Equity and gender sensitivity
Decentralization
Capacity building and technology inputs
Monitoring, evaluation and learning
Social mobilization, community organization, planning and implementation.
Watershed development aims to balance the conservation, regeneration and use by
humans of land and water resources within a watershed. Common benefits from
successful watershed development projects include improved agricultural yields and
increased access to drinking water. The overall attributes of the watershed
development approach, by and large, are three fold, viz. promoting economic
development of the rural area, employment generation, and restoring ecological
balance. However, the multiple objectives include:
Environmental: For protecting vegetative cover throughout the year, to create
ecological balance in the watershed area, protecting fertile top soil, utilizing the land
based on its capabilities, in situ conservation of rain water, increasing ground water
recharge, etc.
Economic: It draws attention for increase in cropping intensity through inter and
sequence cropping, maximizing farm income through agricultural activities such as
dairy, poultry, sheep and goat farming, improved and sustained livelihood status of
the watershed community with special emphasis on the poor and women, etc.
Institutional: It includes formation of watershed committees and self-help- groups,
establishing sustainable community organization, etc.
9
Social:-It includes alleviation of poverty, awareness generation, improving skills of
the community, capacity building activities, women‟s participation in decision-making
process, empowerment of the community etc.
Equity: To develop equitable distribution of the benefits of land and water resources
development including biomass production, involvement of village communities in
participatory planning, implementation, social and environmental arrangement,
maintenance of assets and to operate in a more socially inclusive manner.
1.2 MAJOR OBJECTIVES OF IWMP
i. Increase the productive potential of degraded lands through various watershed interventions.
ii. Improve the biomass through Agro-Horticulture, Agro-Forestry and Silvi-Pastoral systems.
iii. Support to the asset less, small landholders and other vulnerable sections through Income Generating Activities (IGA).
iv. Support the Livestock sector and demonstrations in agriculture related sectors.
v. Improved Production systems and Micro enterprises. vi. Drought proofing of rain-fed agriculture. vii. Formation of vibrant and well informed community-based organizations
resulting in overall improvement in the social capital. viii. Achieving sustainable agriculture production leading to overall
improvement in the quality of life of farming community. ix. Create a sustainable institutional and natural resource base at the
community level.
1.3 FRAMEWORK FOR THE NEXT GENERATION WATERSHED PROGRAMMES
The new guidelines issued by NRAA broadly indicate a fresh framework for the next
generation watershed programmes. The key features of this new unified approach
can be broadly outlined as follows:
Delegating Powers to States: States will now be empowered to sanction and
oversee the implementation of watershed projects within their areas of jurisdiction
and within the parameters set out in these guidelines.
Dedicated Institutions: There would be dedicated implementing agencies with
multi-disciplinary professional teams at the national, state and district level for
managing the watershed programmes.
Financial Assistance to Dedicated Institutions: Additional financial assistance
would be provided for strengthening of institutions at the district, state and national
level to ensure professionalism in management of watershed projects.
Duration of the Programme: With the expanded scope and expectations under this
approach, the project duration has been enhanced in the range of 4 years to 7 years
depending upon nature of activities spread over 3 distinct phases viz., preparatory
phase, works phase and consolidation phase.
10
Livelihood Orientation: Productivity enhancement and livelihoods shall be given
priority along with conservation measures. Resource development and usage will be
planned to promote farming and allied activities to promote local livelihoods while
ensuring resource conservation and regeneration. The new approach would
systematically integrate livestock and fisheries management as a central intervention
and encourage dairying and marketing of dairy products. In the rainfed areas, the
animal resources become a major source of income for the people. When effectively
integrated with the Watershed Development Projects, a comprehensive animal
husbandry component would contribute significantly to ensuring a better and
sustainable livelihood for the people of the rainfed areas.
Cluster Approach: The new approach envisages a broader vision of geo-
hydrological units normally of average size of 1,000 to 5,000 hectares comprising of
clusters of micro- watersheds. If resources and area exist, additional watersheds in
contiguous areas in clusters may be taken up. However, smaller size projects will be
sanctioned in the hilly/difficult terrain areas.
Scientific Planning: Special efforts need to be made to utilize the information
technology and remote sensing inputs in planning, monitoring and evaluation of the
programme.
Capacity Building: Capacity Building and training of all functionaries and
stakeholders involved in the watershed programme implementation would be carried
out on war footing with definite action plan and requisite professionalism and
competence.
Multi Tier Approach: There would be a multi tier ridge to valley sequenced
approach, which should be adopted towards the implementation of the Watershed
Development Projects. Irrespective of the type of forests, the land forming integral
part of the selected watershed project area having agriculture/wasteland and forest
land use, the fringe-forest areas and the degraded areas needing treatment which
have implications for the lower reaches of watershed in terms of runoff/ water yield,
soil erosion & sedimentation, fodder, etc should be part of the holistic watershed
treatment plan, with major focus of soil & moisture conservation.
The second tier is the intermediate tier or the slopes, which are just above the
agricultural lands. In the intermediate slopes, the watershed management approach
would address all the necessary issues by looking at all the best possible options
including treatment, cropping pattern, horticulture, agro-forestry, etc.
As to the third level of the plains and the flat areas, where typically, the farmers are
operating, there would be a large concentration of labour intensive works. The
watershed development process would be synergized with the employment
generating programmes such as the MGNREGA, Backward Regions Grant Fund
(BRGF), etc thus providing strong coordination.
11
These guidelines coupled with the flexibilities inherent in them would provide an
enabling framework for the planning, design, management and implementation of all
watershed development projects in the country. They will apply to all schemes
concerned with watershed development of all departments of Government of India.
In case of plain areas of Punab, the third level as stated above would occupy almost
the whole project area.
1.4 PRINCIPLES BEHIND NEW COMMON GUIDELINES
New watershed projects will be implemented in accordance with these Common
Guidelines with effect from 1st April 2008. The common guidelines for watershed
development projects are based on the following principles:
Equity and Gender Sensitivity
Decentralization, delegation and professionalism.
Facilitation in social mobilization, community organization, capacity building
through competent organizations.
Community participation – involvement of primary stakeholder in decision
making.
Capacity building & technology inputs.
Monitoring, evaluation & learning & documentation.
Organizational restricting for establishing technical & professional support
structures at all level.
These guidelines were modified slightly by the new guidelines issued by the DOLR in
2011.
1.5 BUDGET DISTRIBUTION
The distribution of budget for specific watershed projects for the various components
therein is given below:

drinking water supplies.
Ensuring increase in crop productivity and milk yield.
Ensuring employment generation, poverty alleviation, community empowerment
and development of human and other economic resources of the rural areas.
Restoring ecological balance by harnessing, conserving and developing natural
resources i.e land water, vegetative cover especially plantations.
13
Encouraging village community towards sustained community action for the
operation and maintenance of assets created and further development of the
potential of the natural resources in the watershed.
Promoting use of simple, easy and affordable technological solutions and
institutional arrangements that make use of, and build upon, local technical
knowledge and available local material.
1.9 INTEGRATED WATERSHED PROGRAM IN PLAINS OF PUNJAB
Punjab is one of the smaller states of
India representing just 1.6% of the area
of country. Agriculture occupies the
most prominent place in Punjab's
economy. About 70 per cent of the people
are engaged in agriculture. It is divided
into five agroclimatic zones and annual
rainfall ranges from 1100mm in North
eastern zone to 300mm in south-western
zone. Most of area of the state is irrigated,
but the north-eastern Shivalik Ranges
known as Kandi tract is mostly rain-fed
area. The area being very undulating and
sub-mountainous is traversed by numerous small and big seasonal streams called
choes which cause acute problem of soil erosion and flash floods. The tract is
characterized by very deep underground water table, small land holdings and poor
socio-economic conditions of inhabitants. Southwestern part has diverse type of
wastelands ranging from sand dunes and saline soils to waterlogged areas. Also
Green Revolution in the state which virtually made the state, food bowl of the country
and due to which country has become self sufficient in food grain production has
taken a heavy toll of the state. The soils in the State of Punjab is facing severe
degradation because of many reasons, which includes soils erosion, falling water
table, salt affected soil, water logging, over use of chemical etc. Vast areas of once
verdant lands have turned into Wastelands.
The state of Punjab lost several prestigious positions earned earlier through its
robust agrarian economy supported by fertile lands, sufficient ground water,
innovative hard working farmers and appropriate research and extension support by
the leading Punjab Agricultural University. The food basket of the country contributed
enormously to eradicate hunger of the poor‟s, made the nation sufficient in food
grains. The production gains came with good responses to irrigation and fertilizers
and farmers leveled every piece of land to bring under irrigation. The mono cropping
of rice-wheat covered most of the area because of good yields and assured
marketing. Though it received the status of birth place of green revolution, but quite
soon the green revolution got fatigued on its own turf. The yield levels started
stagnating even with increasing inputs because of physical, chemical, and biological
14
degradation of soils. The water table started decreasing at an alarming rate. This
compelled farmers to shift from diesel centrifugal pumps to submersible motors but
the energy supplies dwindled to trade in complications and farmers were caught in
debt traps. The diversification pill also did not produce results largely because of
market failures in case of alternative crops to rice-wheat. The Punjab agriculture is at
the cross road and viable solutions are not visible. Some facts about the grim
scenario are given below.
The area irrigated by canals decreased from 1.34 to 1.11 million hectares
(mha) but area irrigated by tube-wells increased from 1.82 to 2.96 mha
between 1975-76 and 2006-07.
The number of tube-wells increased from 1.0 lakh to 11.9 lakh between 1960
to 2009 with simultaneous increase in area of wheat from 27 to 78 % and of
paddy from 6 to 60 % but area under pulses decreased from 24 to 1.3
percent.
While the demand for water is 4.33 million hectare meter, the availability is
hardly 3.13 m ham thus creating an annual gap of 1.2 m hams.
In the year 1997, the ground water was fit up to 51 %, marginal up to 38 %
and unfit up to 11 %. But in 2004, the fit percentage decreased to 28 %,
marginal increased to 43 and unfit increased to 29 %.
The water table was going down by 18 cm/year in central Punjab during 1982-
87 but in 2005-08, it was going down by 74 cm/year.
The position of southern districts is worst where underground water is
brackish and unfit for irrigation what to talk of human and livestock use.
The pollution of ground water has assumed serious proportions with
associated problems of human and livestock health. The cancer cases are
increasing day by day.
Diversification of agriculture, judicious use of ground water, laser land leveling,
change of water efficient crop varieties, late planting of paddy, organic farming,
installation of underground pipe for irrigation, and use of drip and sprinkler irrigation
are the major recommendations emerging from the research and development
institutions. But there is no comprehensive natural resource management initiative
like the watershed development programs in whole of the state.
Watershed based development in the form of Integrated Wasteland Development
Programme was initiated in year 2001-02 with sanctioning of Gurdaspur-1 (Areli Mati
Doong Watershed) and Ropar-1 (Budhki ki Rao) projects under Pre-Haryali
Guidelines in District Gurdaspur and Ropar respectively. After that more projects
were initiated with implementation of Haryali Guidelines. The programmes adopt a
common strategy of multi-resource management involving all stakeholders within the
watershed, who together as a group, co-operatively identify the resource issues and
concerns of the watershed as well as develop and implement a watershed plan with
solutions that are environmentally, socially and economically sustainable. With
15
implementation of common guidelines, projects under Integrated Watershed
Management Programme (IWMP) were initiated in year 2009-10.
Keeping in view the above said serious land and water related problems faced by the
Punjab and enlarged scope of Integrated Watershed Management Program (IWMP)
of the Government of India after revised guidelines issued in 2011, four central
districts of Punjab namely Tarantaran, Jallundhur, Ludhiana and Faridkot were
selected for the implementation of this project on a pilot basis during 2010-11. After
two years of pilot phase, scope of IWMP was enlarged to cover six districts of plains
during 2012-13 and number of hill districts was reduced from five to two( table).

All the districts face variety of problems but clear picture emerged when farmer lead
PRA exercises were carried and found that at the micro-watershed level, the
problems are different than traditional soil and water conservation and are seriously
impacting the sustainability of production systems. These problems remained
16
unsolved and farmers raised human health and environment related concerns which
impacted them adversely and no other program was seriously addressing them in a
holistic manner. That is why more districts were included during 2013-14 with much
higher budgetary allocations
1.10 IWMP JALANDHAR – V
The IWMP JALANDHAR - V with treatable area of 5024ha and financial outlay of
Rs.603.00 lakh was included in the sanctioned projects by the SLNA for the year
2013-14 on the basis of PPR submitted by the PIA. After a competitive bidding, the
work of preparation of DPR was awarded to the Society for Promotion and
Conservation of Environment (SPACE) by the DSCO JALANDHAR vide his letter
No 1418 dated 2.9.14. The field work was carried out in participation of PIA and WCs
from September to mid - December 2014. The DPR at hand encapsulate the salient
details of IWMP-V JALANDHAR. The area covered is on both sides of Chiti Bein
starting near Malsian and ending near village Mundi Kalu where Bein joins Satluj
River (Map).

Physiography: The Jalandhar district forms a part of Bist-Doab plain, the inter-
fluvial plain of Beas and Satluj Rivers. The area is easily divisible into four
physiographic units; Alluvial Plains, Sand Dunes, Flood Plains & Palaeochannels.
Alluvial plain constitutes the major portion of the area. It is gently sloping towards
south-west. Part of the alluvial plain is subject to local flooding and thus has good
moisture. At few places, it has salt encrustation. Monotony of nearly level/gently
sloping terrain is broken by the occurrence of scattered longitudinal sand dunes.
18
Which are now stabilized/leveled. Their strike is parallel to the wind direction. Flood
plain is an undulating tract along the Satluj River. Palaeochannels and meander
scars are observed in the flood plain of Satluj River.
Climate: The district has semi-arid climate. The south-western monsoon begins in
the first week of July and extends up to mid September. The monsoon showers
constitute about 73% of the annual rainfall. The average rainfall of Jalandhar district
is 700.0mm. The variation in rainfall is appreciable. The summer season starts by
mid April and continue till the end of June. The temperature as high as 43.10C has
been observed in the month of June while January is the coolest month with mean
monthly temperature of 1.40C.
Occupation: Agriculture is the main occupation of inhabitants and about 80% of the
population is engaged in farming. Nearly 89% of the total geographical area of the
district is under cultivation. There are 1855 registered factories in the district which
offer another mode of employment for the inhabitants of the area.
Population: The total population of district Jalandhar according to 2001 census is
1962700 as compared to 1649909 in 1991. The percentage increase in population
from 1991 to 2001 is 18.96. The population density is 746persons/sq.km. The
number of females per thousand males is 887. The schedule caste population is
739762 that is almost 38% of the total population. Literacy rate of Jalandhar district
is 78%, which rank it 3rd in Punjab. Large number of people has gone abroad mainly
to UK and Canada and remits sufficient money back home.
2.2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AREA
Out of total geographical area of 6684 ha, an area of 5024ha is proposed for
treatment under IWMP JALANDHAR-V batch 2013-14 at a total cost of Rs 603.00
lakhs covering 30villages of Shahkot and Lohian Blocks. All the villages are in a
compact block situated on the left and right side of Chiti Bein. The Project area is
reached from Malsian and Lohian towns (See Map). The Satluj River is on the
south- western side and runs parallel to Bein River. It is located between Lat. E 310-
08‟-17.62” to 310-08‟-20.793” and Long.N 750-6‟-32.855” to 750-24‟-13.619”.
19
PROJECT AREA MAP
The area forms the catchment of Bein River and divided into different micro-
watersheds. The Bein River traverses a very tourtuous path and meanders like a
snake and joins Satlu River near Harike. The lower area was flood plains of Satluj
River and inundated during floods. But now protective earthen embankments have
been made along the banks of Bein and Satluj River. Bein carries the waste waters
of several towns and villages especially Jalandhar and is highly polluted.
The salient features of the project area are as under:
Most of the villages are connected from Malsian-Lohian highway. All villages
are linked by rural roads.
Chiti Bein an important tributary of Satluj River and flows on north-eastern
side and carry all the runoff of the project area and joins Satluj River near
Harike wet land.
No area of the project is irrigated by canal though upper areas near Nakodar
receive some irrigation from Sirih and Phillaur Distributary. The entire area is
irrigated by Tube-wells.
Soil erosion is a problem along the peripheral ares of Bein River and lower area
suffers from frequent floodingwater logging problem.
The water table is 25 to 40m in upper area but hardly 15 to 200 in lower flood
plains.
All the villages are connected by link roads and there is no problem of
communication between these villages.
20
Every village has one or two ponds in which rainwater and sludge water of the
village through lined channels along the streets is discharged but most of the
ponds are silted and infested with lot of over growth of weeds. The problem of
bad smell and stagnation is so severe that livestock cannot enter into these
ponds. Due to tap water supply in every house, the waste water continues to
flow into the ponds.
Under different schemes, some of the walls of the ponds have been constructed
but have been damaged and needs repair. Some of the farmers whose lands
are close to the ponds lift the water using diesel engines and irrigate some of
the area as per the seasonal requirement. The farmers argue the need of pond
water for irrigation due to the following reasons:
The electric supply is very much erratic and comes for limited hours and as a
result the paddy crop often suffers moisture stress. Particularly during deficit
rainfall years. In such a situation the use of pond water becomes necessary to
save the crop.
The experiences of the farmers shows that the pond water is full of nutrients
and when used the need of urea decreases. The growth of green algae and
presence of dissolved manure adds organic matter into the soil.
The organic matter so added helps in reclamation of alkali soils.
The ponds usually overflow during the rainy season and water enters into the
streets of the villages and cause lot of inconvenience to the people. The
removal of water for irrigation particularly during summer months helps in
reducing this problem.
The stagnating pond water gives foul smell and if taken out once a year and got
refilled with rainwater every year then the problem of foul smells decreases.
The pond waters have gone so bad that livestock does not enter into the pond.
Lot of encroachments have been made by those residing near the banks of the
ponds and this problem remains unsolved as no elected gram panchayat wants
to pick up dispute with the encroachers. The best alternative suggested is to
construct retaining walls along the ponds to fix its boundaries once for all.
The polluted water of ponds also contaminates the water of hand pumps which
have been installed by the families residing along the ponds. This problem is
leading to several health hazards.
Since ground water is depleting at a very fast rate and during the year 2013-14
the rains were 58% deficient the water table went down from 1 to 1.5m in some
of the villages.
A sizeable part of the area goes for potato cultivation during winter. Some
farmers take Mentha as cash crop. After harvest of potato, maize and musk
melons are taken by number of farmers
The major problems of this area include the following:
The wheat-paddy system has caused nutrient imbalances and crops are not
responding to increasing doses of fertilizers. The micro-nutrient deficiencies
21
are appearing. The organic matter is decreasing as green manuring is not
catching up. The crop diversification by potato and musk melon has been
taken up but prices crash quite often and farmers end up with losses.
The second major problem is soil erosion along the banks of Bein River and
collapse of slopes. The pollution of Bein waters is posing several health
problems.
The third main problem is the stagnating water of already silted village ponds
which needs de-siltation and also provision for using this water for irrigation.
The pond water generally over flows during rainy season and enter into village
streets. This remains a problem in villages having ponds located inside the
settlements.
The fourth problem is the fast depleting ground water which goes down by two
to three feet every year. During the monsoon of 2014, the rainfall was low and
water table had gone by six to eight feet and farmers had to put extra pipes in
the delivery system. The lowering of water is assuming a serious problem of
this area mainly growing paddy and wheat crops.
Farmers continue to burn the paddy stubbles in spite of ban in post by the
government. The direct seeded rice is recommended and farmers agree that
there is saving of labor but not much saving of water and yield is also roughly
10% less than the normal sown rice. Due to the shortage of labor both wheat
and paddy are harvested by combines.
As we discussed the employment opportunities for the educated youth, there
is general feeling that the boys after getting education up to graduation level
are almost unemployed and are not getting any job. They are also not getting
opportunities for skill development and financial support to start some income
generating activities. This is still more serious problem for the girls who
remain idle for want of proper training and support to take up livelihood
activities.
There is general lack of educational institutions in the project area. The main
education facilities are at Sultanpur Lodhi, Nakodar and Jalandhar.
Major Soil Types of the Project Area:
As per the compendium of soil survey works prepared by the STATE LAND USE
BOARD, MOHALI, Department of Soil and Water Conservation, Punjab; project area
is divided into three major soil types which are briefly described as under:
Normal Soils: These are very deep, well drained, calcareous fine loamy soils on
very gentle slopes with loamy surface and low in organic carbon and soil pH range
from 7.5 to 8.3. They form the upper areas near Malsian and Shahkot.
Erosion Prone soils: These are subject to soil erosion located on slopes along
Bein, loamy sand to sandy loam well drained, moderate to severe soil erosion and
soil pH range from 7.2 to 7.9.
22
Soils of Flood plains: These soils occur in lower areas which are inundated
frequently. The soils are very deep, fine textured with low permeability and poor
drainage. The soil pH ranges from 8.2 to 8.9.
Formation of Watershed Committees: After the sanction of the project the
Divisional Soil Conservation Officer Jalandhar and SDSCO Nakodar constituted a
team of WDT to generate awareness about the project and also form the Watershed
Committees after holding meetings in villages. The WDTs recorded the proceedings
in a register and the committees were formed. The name of WC presidents,
secretaries and Sarpanch Gram Panchyat are given as under.

2.3 PRESENT STATUS OF NATURAL RESOURCES
1. Rainfall: In a bimodal patter of distribution, the project area receives 700mm of
mean annual rainfall. The monsoon rains usually arrive in last week of June nad
withdraw by end of September. This arrival and withdrawal of course is highly
variable. About 80% of annual rainfalls say 600mm is received during the rainy
season. Few winter showers are received from December end to February. The
month of October and November, April & May received very occasional showers
during monsoon season; four/five storms bring heavy rain which cause flooding.
The lower area of the project used to be flooded frequently by the Satluj River. In
order to solve this problem Dhusi Bunds has been constructed all along the along
the banks of Bein River. Some of the area between the Dhusi Bunds is in a
narrow strip which is under cultivation and is frequently flooded.. But the area
inside the Dhusi Band is also flooded once in three years due to the runoff from
the upper area and this runoff moves along the Dhusi Bund and ultimately drains
into the Satlu River.
2. Climate: The climate of the project area is semi –arid with winter season
temperature goes below 40C and summer temperatures goes above 430C. Frost &
Fog occur for few days in winter. Humidity goes above 90% in rainy season and
below 70% in summer.
3. Water Resources
a) Depleting groundwater: Due to over-withdrawal by large number of tube-wells
particularly for paddy crop, the water table is falling @30 to 50cm each year.
The water table is about 30 to 45m in the upper areas of the project However in
the lower areas; the water table is between 15 to 20 meters. Paddy is cultivated
in the area and sub mersible motors have been installed, so the water table is
falling at a fast rate of 60 to 70cm per year. During the year 2013-14, due to
severe drought the water table has fallen between 1.2 to 1.5m as reported by
the farmers of the project area.
b) Contamination of ground water: The sludge water of the villages is drained
into village ponds where it stagnates and contaminates the ground water. Some
ponds are situated within the villages where handpumps have been installed
close to these ponds and the quality of water has become unfit for drinking.
c) Water logging in local depressions: The lower area is frequently water
logged during the rainy season and also a month or so after the monsoon rains.
4. Agriculture: Farming remains the main occupation of the people followed by
animal husbandry as the main subsidiary occupation. Wheal-Paddy is the main crop
rotation but almost 30 to 40 % farmers opt for potato and peas diring winter season
and keep some area under wheat to meet domestic and livestock needs. Sorghum is
raised as fodder.
5. Horticulture: The horticulture is by and large absent in whole of the project area.
We could locate only two to three orchards. As such farmers were found raising
24
mango, guava and citrus plants on their tube wells and in the homesteads essentially
for home consumption.
6. Vegetables: The vegetable cultivation in the project area is mainly commercial
potato and peas. But many farmers were seen raising small plots of turmeric, brinjal,
peas, lady finger and cucurbits mainly for domestic consumption.
7. Agro-Forestry: One may not find any tree in the landscape except in villages,
along roads, on tube-wells except Eucalyptus trees in rows or occasionally in blocks.
Colonel eucalyptus demand is picking up and newly raised plants are seen on many
farms along nalas. Eucalyptus remains the most preferred tree of the area.
8. Animal Husbandry: Ninety five percent of families are maintaining milch animal
cow or buffalo. The land owners are mainly keeping 2 to 3 buffaloes. Only selected
families are keeping Jursey/Holstein breed high yielding cows. Milk processing is
totally absent but milk is sold by about 20% families mainly to local milk venders.
Few farmers who are maintaining good dairy farms are keeping mix of good breed
Murrah buffalo and Jursey/Holstein cows and sell milk on fat percentage basis to
local milk collection cenres. Heaps of cow dung cakes are seen on every available
space in village indicating that household cooking is mainly done by cakes. Gas was
found with selected families . There is no proper management of farmyard manure.
Animal health care services are very weak and farmers generally depend upon local
sources. We noted several animal feed shops at Lohian, Malsian and Shahkot and
farmers who maintain high yielding milch animal definitely use animal feed. Turi
(wheat straw) and Sorghum/Bajra are the main forage crops which every farmer
raise as per his livestock required. Paddy straw is used mainly for culled ou/dryt
livestock. Most farmers agree that dairying is necessary not only for milk but for cow
dung cakes and manure. There is very good scope of making dairy farming as
ruminative subsidiary occupation for youth. Bullocks are getting eliminated as the
tractor cultivation has become common. Most animals are stall-fed as there are no
grazing grounds. Pond water is not fit for drinking so tap water is mostly used.
9. Livelihood: Agriculture is he major occupation in project villages with dairying as
the main subsiding occupation both of land owners and landless. A small fraction of
the people is in service. There is no major industry nearby to absorb the manpower.
In each village, the tractor owners do custom hiring business. Combine harvesting of
wheat and paddy being common, several people have kept combines and local
youth get seasonal employment. We noted that in some ST dominated villages, lot of
people were engaged as masons, skilled laborers, welders, motor mechanics and
electricians. Only limited families were engaged in bee-keeping, goatry and piggery.
10. Social Institutions
- There is elected GP in every village. Some GPs are headed by women sarpanches. Panchayat secretaries maintain all accounts, MNREGA funds are received regularly in every GP.
25
- Nambardars are still there. - Anganwaris were present in almost all villages but functioning from
Dharamsalas. - Dharamsalas are there in most villages but are not properly maintained. - Depending upon population, primary, middle or senior secondary schools are
fully functional. Private schools of English medium are attracting children in bigger villages and small towns.
- Medical services are limited. - Veterinary health services are grossly inadequate. - Villages are connected with roads and local bus services are mostly available to
important villages. - As such there are colleges at Nakodar and Sultanpur Lodhi but no major
hospital is located in the project area.
2.4 SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE
2.4.1 Status of Educational Institutions
All the villages have primary schools except Mundi Kalu andDhuduwal, two middle schools at Phull and Mundo Chollian, three SCH-HI schools at Sindhar,Nal and Nawanpind Khalewal but no ITI,Polytechnic or degree college in the project villages. The industrial training institute, polytechnic and degree colleges are situated at Nakodar, Jalandhar and Sultanpur Lodhi which are at a distance between 16 and 40 km with an average distance of 28km from project villages.
2.4.2 Status of Animal Husbandry Dispensary, Animal Census, Dairy, Poultry
and Fishery
The animal health care services are provided by two dispensary one at Sindhar and second at Turna and one hospital atNal.. The average distance to hospital is 5 to 8km. The total livestock population is 13683 with average of 456animal/village and buffalo is the main animal. There are eight milk collection centres, 13 commercial dairy units, 4 poultry units and 3 fish farms. There is vast scope of improving dairy, poultry and bee keeping in the project area.
2.4.3 Water Availability Status of Project Village
The water availability situation is favorable in the area .An area of 11349ha is irrigated by tube-well and no canal water supply. The number of tube-wells is increasing very fast. The ground water table for drinking water varies from 30 to 50m.. Drinking water quality is not bad except villages very close to Bein.. The irrigation water is of normal quality. Most villages are served by water supply scheme and there are three water storage overhead tanks.
2.4.4 Status of Farm Power and Machinery
There are 1297 tube-wells in the project area out of which 765 are engine operated and remaining 295 are electricity operated submersible motors. This number is increasing very fast. The revenue records showed that there are 605 tractors, 474 threshers, 8 combine harvesters and 8 reapers.
26
2.4.5 Area Under Principle crops in the Project villages Land use
Out of the total geographical area of 6684 ha, the treatable area is 5024 ha covering 30 villages. As per 2011 revenue records, 6053ha is net cropped area. There is no forest area. Wheat followed by paddy is the main crop rotation. Wheat covers 4511 ha and paddy 4951ha.The area under fodder, maize, and orchards is 669,110 and 2 ha respectively. The oilseeds occupy an area of 29ha, pulses 8ha and vegetables 679. Sugarcane is taken over an area of 33 ha.
2.4.6 Population status
The total population of the project villages as per 2011 census is 27303 with 14136 male and13167 female which is distributed over 4082 families. The SC population is 8097 or 29.7 percent of the total. The literacy rate is 59 percent.
2.5 OTHER ONGOING DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS/ SCHEMES IN THE
PROJECT VILLAGES
These villages being backward have been on top priority of a number of development projects.

CHAPTER – III
METHODOLOGY ADOPTED
Project Implementing Agency, Department of Soil & Water Conservation, Punjab and
WCDC assigned the work for preparation of Detailed Project Report for IWMP-
IWMP – V Jalandhar in Shahkot and Lohian Blocks to The Society for Promotion and
Conservation of Environment Chandigarh which has vast experience in the field,
having completed numerous such projects in various states of the country. The
following methodology was adopted to prepare the DPR.
3.1 BENCH MARK SURVEY AND RESOURCE INVENTORY
Bench mark survey for collection of baseline data on various bio-physical and socio-
economic aspects was initiated with the active involvement of the front line staff of
PIA. Special social development staff was engaged by the SPACE for compilation of
basic data from primary and secondary sources.
Collection of Primary Data: This work was initiated in September2014. First of all a
meeting was arranged with the department officials located at alandhar, in which
Technical Expert from WCDC, Officers from PIA and President of SPACE
participated. In this introductory meeting, the preliminary details of the proposed
project, location of villages and basis for selection were discussed.
In order to have a first hand view, a quick joint visit through the proposed project
area was made. In this reconnaissance survey, physical location of the watershed,
important villages, drainage system, main land use, and problems of the area were
assessed. We also met number of Sarpanches to get feedback from them and noted
their perception, needs, and scope of watershed works. Some of the landless and
BPL families were also interviewed to understand their needs and possible solutions.
Collection of Secondary Data :A proforma was designed to collect information on
demographic features, socio economic, infrastructure, land use, primary and
secondary occupations, major crops grown and yield levels, fruit and vegetable
crops and marketing facilities, fodder production, agro-forestry crops, livestock status
and milk production, status of Self Help Groups, previous watershed schemes and
works undertaken under MNREGA etc. A social development associate started
collecting this information and also held individual and group discussions with
women groups, landless, BPL and other poor sections of the society. The issues
concerning water availability, use of common property resources, fuel and fodder
availability, wage employment opportunities and major concerns of the community
were discussed; debated and final outcomes were recorded.
3.2 PARTICIPATORY RURAL APPRAISAL
Participatory Rural Appraisal was conducted at the village level to assess the
resources available, local skills and indigenous knowledge, livelihoods, wealth
30
structure, social dynamics and needs of the community. The following tools were
used:
3.2.1Community Sensitization and Rapport Building
A meeting of the villagers was held with sufficient notice and mutually agreed date,
place and time. The villagers were made aware about the program details, need of
participation, details of cost sharing, roles and responsibilities and time frame.
3.2.2 Resource Mapping
This included social mapping, resource (Land, water, vegetation, livestock, common
property) mapping, seasonality calendar, service inflow and outflow, location of
existing works and possible location of proposed works but subjected to technical
requirements.
3.2.3 Transect Walk
In order to identify the areas to be treated, proposed work sites and assess the
feasibility, the experts carried out a reconnaissance survey through transect walk.
The sites were marked on the maps and the different treatment measures required
for the treatment of the area were also recommended.
3.2.4 Focused Group Discussions
Focused Group Discussions (FGD) were conducted in order to obtain community
approved conclusions on various identified needs. It was helpful in complementing
the assessments emerged from PRA and to derive the opinion of the community on
various issues.
3.3 FORMATION OF WATERSHED COMMITTEES
Since project activities are to be carried out in collaboration and deep involvement of
the people, village level committees were constituted in each project village. The
department staff was present during the election of committee members.
3.4 USAGE OF DATA
The data, primary as well as secondary, which was obtained from the various
authentic sources, was used in formulation of the local needs of the populace and
also to plan the interventions required for the optimum utilization of the available
resources in the watershed area. The due emphasis was given to plan the activities
to fill in the existing gaps and to address the weak indicators.
3.5 PREPARATION OF ACTION PLAN AND APPROVAL
Data was analyzed and based on the identified needs and problems in the
watershed area; a draft action plan was prepared and placed before the concerned
watershed Development committee for approval. After detailed deliberations and
incorporation of relevant suggestions into the plan, the action plan was got approved
from the concerned Watershed Development Committee in the form of resolution.
31
3.6. COMPILATION OF DPR’s
The Draft Project Report was prepared based on the basic information generated
from primary and secondary sources. This also included the outcome of Participatory
Rural appraisal and outcome of transit walks and stakeholder discussions. A list of
scope of work which finally emerged was prepared. Based on the technical surveys
detailed cost estimates were prepared for components in natural resources
management, entry point activities, and production systems. A broad framework for
capacity building at all levels as per the guidelines of the DOLR was prepared. The
livelihood opportunities which emerged from local products and market facilies were
analysed and an outline of the same was included. Since the financial provisions are
well decided according to the area proposed to be covered (Rs 12000/Ha at
present), these provisions were distributed across project activities. The project
activities are sequenced into three phases namely preparatory phase, works phase
and consolidation and withdrawal phase, so the activities were segregated in this
sequence and explained in detail. Finally, the details about budget and its split up
into annual action plans were attempted. The proforma used to enlist activities in
village meetings is annexed.

CHAPTER – IV
SCOPE OF WORK IN PROJECT VILLAGES
All the project villages were visited by the team of SPACE comprising of
Dr.S.S.Grewal, President SPACE, Sh. Jit Singh Retd DSCO, Kirpal Singh Retd.
DSCO and Sh Gurmeet Singh Social Development Expert. The GP and WC were
informed in advance for the meetings and visit to problem areas for on the spot
analysis. The survey sheets were used as an aid in project planning. A strong
interaction was made with the community to understand their views and problems
Actual measurements were taken for estimating purposes. The general observations
include the following:
It is gently sloping land on 1 to 3% slope along the flow direction towards Bein
River. The overall slope is from north-east to south- west. The lower area is
flood plains of Satluj River.
The area is predominantly under wheat-paddy crop rotation and sizeable area
under Potato and Peas during winter. Commercial vegetable cultivation is
negligible.
Area is well connected with net- work of link roads taking off from Malsian-
Lohian highway and Lohian-Shahkot main road.
Houses are generally pacca with brick or cement lined streets with drainage
channels leading usually to village ponds which are there one or two in every
villages.
MNREGA scheme is operating in most villages and GPs get funds for
different community welfare imposes.
Panchayat ghars are conspicuous by their absence and there are Jhanj
Ghars, Dharamsalas, Anganwaris, small veterinary hospitals, Govt. schools,
dispensaries and local bus service to almost every village. Animal health care
services are poor.
The village ponds remain filled with village runoff water and sewerage water,
are mostly silted up, partly encroached upon and giving foul smell.
Most villages have Shamlat land given on lease for cultivation and irrigated by
the lease holders who keep the land for several years and install irrigation
system.
The groundwater exploitation has increased with increasing number of bore-
wells. The water level is going deep by 30 to 50cm each year. Most diesel
operated engines have been replaced by submersible motors.
Land holdings are small and mechanized agriculture has given people some
spare time. No large size dairy farms were soon. No big industry is located
except some rice shellers. Milk is sold mostly to local vendors.
33
Major Problems:
Some area around Bein suffers from soil erosion and occasional inundation
during floods. The lower flood plain area suffers from temporary water logging
in local depressional areas and crops suffer from inundation and natural outlet
is not available.
The problem of salinity and alkalinity was not noted but productivity is low in
lower area due to poor permeability of soils. Most of upper area is under light
textured soils with poor moisture retention capacity.
Village runoff and sewerage water disposal is a common problem in almost all
villages. This water goes to village ponds which are mostly silted, overflows
and encroached upon. People are interested in proper disposal of village
runoff and sewerage to ponds which need repair, renovation, desiltation and
made fully functional. Then this pond water can be used for irrigation to
Shamlat if possible or private lands. This would solve a major sanitation
problem.
People were found least interested in diversified farming mainly because of no
assured market rates. Potato growers often end up with losses. So is the fate
of Mentha growers.There is no milk plant nearby.
Dairy farming appears a good proposition and need a push.
Women are kitchen oriented and not coming out to form groups and start
income generating activities. This idea is not catching up because of lack of
awareness.SC/ST members are engaged with masons as good house
building is the first choice of every family.
G.P. members in meeting were seen more interested in village centric
activities including making street pacca, bus shelters, meeting places for
which 3.6% funds under EPA is too short.
The village wise detail of activities identified is explained in the following section.
Village Mullewal Arayian
Village Mullewal Arayian is situated on the left bank of the Chitti Bein and
surrounded by railway line on the southern side. It is reached from Turna on the link
road to Aliwal-Makhi-Mullewal Arayian. It can also be reached from Malsian on a link
road going to Khanpur Rajputan-Mullewal Brahmna and then Mullewal Arayian. An
area of 191ha has been taken up for treatment under the project at a total cost of
Rs.23.00 lakh. The meeting was arranged by Sh.Jagdev Singh WC president and its
members Smt.Surinder Kaur Sarpanch Gram Panchayat and its members and large
number of farmers and women from SC/ST families. The group was explained the
purpose of the meeting, the aims and objectives of the program, its duration, and
activities covered under the program, allocation under different components and also
the roles and responsibilities of watershed committee. After detailed discussion the
following activities were finalized:
34
Entry Point Activities: A provision of Rs.0.92lakh has been made for the EPA.
There is one main pond over an area of 1.5acre on the northern side of the village.
The open channel made along the street going towards the pond was katcha, broken
and silted up. It was proposed to construct a pucca open channel to carry rain and
sludge water to the pond. A resolution from the WC was obtained by the PIA and
proposal was got approved and work was just to be started as material had already
reached when the team visited.
Natural Resource Management: A sum of Rs.12.84lakh has been included for civil
works under NRM component. There were hot discussions on this component and
finally the problem of village pond carried the highest priority. All the members in the
meeting joined the team and reached the pond for taking measurements. This pond
is totally filled up with weeds, needs de-siltation. It overflows during rainy season and
water reaches nearby houses and also into the streets. It was proposed that:
a) This pond should be made weed free and de-silted.
b) The retaining wall should be constructed in a length of 315m as per
measurements taken at site. The wall will be constructed on the existing
boundary after removing some encroachments towards Harijan Basti.
c) A pipeline of 10” dia RCC should be laid in a length of 400m to the eastern
side and 300m towards panchayat land and in addition 120m to cover almost
all the land surrounding the village.
d) In case the funds are available, laser leveling and gypsum application for
kallar reclamation may be included.
Production System: Laser leveling in a land of 100acres owned by small and
marginal farmers may be carried out with usual cost norms.
9% of the project funds are provided for improving the production potential of the
farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are interested in high yielding and
disease resistant varieties of crops. The following activities have been unanimously
decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural
university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
35
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be
promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun
and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per
requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is
proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project
funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20%
and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be
deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps
shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: We had a separate meeting with the SC/ST Mohalla
and explained the details of livelihood program to the men and women present in the
meeting. The following names were given for training and then starting IGA:

Village Nawazipur
This village is situated on the left bank of the Bein and connected to Malsian town by
a link road which further goes to Issewal and Kasupur. There was lot of problem in
the formation of watershed committee in this village mainly because of political
rivalry between the elected and defeated sarpanch of gram panchayat. The PIA staff
made repeated efforts to motivate the community for the formation of watershed
committee but there was no agreement till the last moment. The team reached the
village on 12.12.2014 afternoon with due
information to the sarpanch and other
prominent members by sending an advance
staff of the PIA. We decided to note the
activities required to be taken up under the
project by consulting the sarpanch and number
of prominent members from each ward/locality.
An area of 72ha is proposed under the project
for treatment at a total cost of Rs.9.00lakh. The
total population of this small village is 456 (214male & 242female) out of which there
are 244 members from the SC community which is more than 50% of the total. The
group was explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims and objectives of the
program, its duration, and activities covered under the program, allocation under
different components and also the roles and responsibilities of watershed committee.
After detailed discussions following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: It was felt that the village being very close to the Bein. The
quality of drinking water is so bad that it is not fit for human use. The community
decided to install RO in the primary school building and some of the adjoining
houses could also take this water for daily use. A nominal provision of only
Rs.0.31lakh has been made for this activity under the project.
Natural Resource Management: All the community members spontaneously
agreed to the de-siltation, cleanliness and construction of retaining walls of the pond.
After taking measurements and looking at the availability of Rs.4.35lakh under this
component it was decided to construct 96m of retaining wall and 120m underground
pipeline to use the pond water for irrigation. The excavated earth would be used for
constructing a 76m long earthen embankment along the remaining sides of the pond.
The height of the retaining wall should be 1.5m along the length of 48m on the side
of the link road. The remaining 48m side wall height may be kept as 1m.
37
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural
university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be
promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun
and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per
requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is
proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project
funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20%
and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be
deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps
shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: This village is quite close to the township of Malsian
and Shahkot. There is a good market for milk, poultry products and also for
vegetables. About a dozen youth from this village goes to Shahkot/Malsian as daily
wage labours. They were motivated to get training in different occupations like
mobile repair, mechanic, electrician, plumber, carpenter etc. The names of these
boys were given to the WDT for further contact.
The women members were explained about the welfare programs under the project
and they agreed to form two self help groups and also get training in the surf and
phenyl making. The girls present pressed for a sewing and tailoring centre.
38
Village Meda
Village Meda is situated on the left bank of Bein River and is connected with the
main Malsian – Lohian road through Turna, Aliwal and Mehmuwal. An area of 186ha
has been taken for treatment at a total cost of Rs.22.00lakh. The total population of
the village is 716 out of which 375 are men and 341 are women. The population of
SC members is 129. As stated above for Nawazipur, the community of village Meda
could not form the watershed committee till the last date in spite of repeated visits of
the PIA staff. There were two alternatives, one was to exclude the village from the
list and add the same area from other villages. The second alternative was to
discuss with the community and finalize the activities which are required under the
project and provide budget accordingly and let the village community take some
more time to form the watershed committee. In consultation with the PIA staff and
technical expert of the WCDC, we decided to follow the second alternative and held
a meeting in the village in the late afternoon of 12.12.2014. The village sarpanch and
some prominent members of the gram panchayat and few others participated in the
discussions. The group was explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims and
objectives of the program, its duration, and activities covered under the program,
allocation under different components and also the roles and responsibilities of
watershed committee. After detailed discussions following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: The re-construction of damaged and dilapidated open
channel by raising its bed level and re-construction over a length of 150m with a
section of 0.6x0.4m at a total cost of Rs.0.80lakh provided under this component.
The PIA staff took the measurements but needed resolution from the watershed
committee for which some more time has been given to the community to form the
WC.
Natural Resource Management: There is a provision of Rs.11.25lakh for civil works
under the NRM component. The following activities were decided:
a) There is 6.5acre land of gram panchayat as shamlat out of which 5acre is in
one block and 1.5acre is in the second block. There is a need of 280m
underground pipeline from the motor recently installed in the panchayat land.
With this the revenue from the gram panchayat would increase.
b) The sludge and rain water of the village goes through an unlined katcha
channel to the Bein and is not used for irrigation. It is proposed to construct
800m lined open channel of 0.6x0.45m size upto the last field where gram
panchayat would dig a pond to store this water. The outlets would be provided
after every acre length to irrigate the area along the course of this channel.
c) In case the funds are available these may be used for laser leveling.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
39
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.

the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: This village is quite far off from the town of Malsian
and Lohian. One computer centre and sewing and tailoring centre were proposed
under livelihood component. There is scope of forming three to four self help groups
for which WDT was asked to contact the community as soon as the watershed
committee is formed. The required budget for this component has been provided as
such.
Village Sindhar
Village Sindhar is situated on the left bank of Chitti Bein in north and Phillaur-Lohian
railway line on the south and is approached from Sultanpur Lodhi side on Turna-
Makhi and Sindhar link road. An area of 298ha has been taken up for treatment at a

duration, activities covered under the program, allocation under different components
and also the roles and responsibilities of watershed committee. The villagers were of
the opinion that area is flooded frequently because of its geographic situation and
flow is hindered by the railway line. After detailed discussions following activities
were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: There are two ponds
in the village. The smaller pond is over an
area of 4.5kanals but encroachments are
taking place and as a result they have already
constructed part of the retaining wall. The
remaining retaining wall on a length of 20m
may be constructed and weeds removed and
de-siltation carried out with the available
funds of Rs.0.94lakh under this component.
The measurements were taken to record the
exact amount of work required. It was decided
to put DPC on the entire length of walls, new and old one.
43
Natural Resource Management: The entire community converged on the need of
repair and renovation of main village pond situated on the eastern side of the
peripheral road which is over an area of 6.5kanals. The team and villagers inspected
this pond and took detailed measurements of the work required. The following
activities were finalized:
a) The retaining wall over a part of the pond
measuring 183m should be constructed
with proper inlets.
b) The pond should be de-silted and weeds
removed.
c) An underground pipeline over a length of
660m may be constructed along the link
road along with a pump stand, engine
and small room.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural
university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be
promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun
and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per
requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is

Village Makhi
Village Makhi is situated on the left bank of Chitti Bein and is linked from Turna on
the link road Turna-Makhi-Sindhar. An area of 137ha has been taken up for
treatment under the project at a total cost of Rs.16.00lakh. The meeting was held in
the premises of the gurdwara where sarpanch Major Singh and members of GP and
Baldev Singh president WC and his team of members were present along with good
number of other farmers and women which included large number of girls interested
in project activities. The group was explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims

allocation under different components and also the roles and responsibilities of
watershed committee. After detailed discussions following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: A sum of Rs.0.66lakh has been provided under EPA
component. After taking a resolution from the WC a proposal has been prepared to
bring rain and sludge water to the pond from one of the mohalla by laying
underground pipeline. This would enhance the capacity of the pond and solve the
problem of disposal of sludge water. After obtaining the sanction, this activity would
be carried out during the current financial year.
Natural Resource Management: A sum of Rs.9.21lakh has been provided for civil
works under the NRM component. There were quite divergent views on the use of
this amount. A group of villagers wanted to fill up the pond and make a community
centre on this land and dig up another pond out of the shamlat land but the majority
45
of the members were of the view that the existing pond should be maintained and
renovated. The ultimate convergence was on the second point. It was decided that:
a) The village pond should be cleaned of weeds and de-silted.
b) Retaining wall should be constructed over a length of 130m at the existing
boundary after removing encroachments.
c) An underground pipeline of 200m 10” RCC to be laid from the pond towards
western side along a path to irrigate about 3ha of land of nine farmers.
d) Laser leveling in 5acres of shamlat land
e) Application of gypsum for the reclamation of kallar land in an area of 30acres
after following cost sharing norms.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.

funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20%
and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be
deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps
shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.

This village is situated on Lohian-Shahkot main road at a distance of about 6km from
Lohian. The Phillaur-Lohian railway line passes through this village and also the Bein
is located on the periphery of this revenue village. An area of 121ha has been taken
up for treatment at a total cost of Rs.15.00lakh. The meeting was held in the
premises of local gurdwara and was arranged by Sh.Jaswant Singh president of WC
and Sh.Tarsem Singh secretary. The group was explained the purpose of the
meeting, the aims and objectives of the program, its duration, activities covered
under the program, allocation under different components and also the roles and
responsibilities of watershed committee. After detailed discussions following
activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: The sludge water of the village goes to Bein through a
channel made along the burms of the pucca road. This channel has been covered
with lot of weeds and water stagnates due to accumulation of water in local
depressions. The WC and Gram Panchayat decided to construct the pucca open
channel along the road with the available funds of Rs.0.58lakh under EPA.
Natural Resource Management: We had lot of discussions on the utilization of
Rs.8.13lakh made available for civil works under NRM component of the project.
There was no pond which could be renovated. A small pond on a katcha path
beyond the railway line was inspected and found that the size is so small that it is not
adviseable to invest the funds on its repair and renovation. There was no demand for
47
laser leveling as farmers are already doing it at their own. We ultimately decided that
the maximum saving in irrigation water could be made if underground pipelines are
laid from individual tubewells for irrigation. The available funds could provide 32acre
length of 10” dia RCC pipeline which would be distributed amongst the beneficiaries
but preference will be given to those small farmers who want to carry the water to
fields located at higher elevation or have lands in two pockets which could be
connected by the underground pipeline. The watershed committee agreed to share
this 32acre land amongst the beneficiary farmers who would share 20% of the cost.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural
university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be
promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun
and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per
requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is
proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project
funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20%
and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be
deposited in the WC fund.
In order to take care the health of livestock, two animal health care camps
shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: Madam Tirath Kaur was included as one of the
member of the watershed committee representing SC/ST families. She along with
Sujeet Kaur, Jaswinder Kaur promised to form SHG and requested the PIA staff to
hold a separate meeting in the village for this purpose.
Sh.Jaswant Singh president WC and Sh.Tarsem Singh, Kewal Singh agreed to
motivate the young unemployed youth of the village for getting training and start IGA
activities. In fact the SC population is relatively much less in this village and being
located on the main road are getting labor work in the Lohian Township. However,
computer training could be provided to help them getting better job opportunities.

After detailed discussions following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: A provision of Rs.0.47lakh has been made for EPA under
the project. After discussions it was decided that there is a piece of about one acre
land just on the road which is low lying and needs to be developed as ground of the
school. It was decided that earth filling should be carried out in this ground and also
an open channel lined along the road to carry the sludge water up to the pond. This
activity was not included in the program earlier as WC was formed only very
recently. The PIA promised to send the estimates for the completion of this work
immediately.
Natural Resource Management: A sum of Rs.6.53lakh has been provided for civil
works under NRM component. It was decided by the majority that the village pond
situated just on the road should be de-silted and retaining walls constructed
preferably along the area of the graveyard and a pipeline in 240m length should be
provided for irrigation. The measurements were taken at site and decided to
construct 165m length of retaining wall with 1m height and also 132m of pipeline for
irrigation. This was restricted due to budget limitations.
49
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are

Livelihood Support System: Since this village is quite close to Lohian town, the
income generating activities like dairy farming,
mushroom cultivation, bee keeping, poultry
farming were indicated by the landless
families as livelihood support activities. The
women members insisted for training in
sewing of warm clothes including a computer
centre.
We noted that a private company was
collecting milk from the village and paying on
the basis of fat percentage and taking it to Firozpur for processing. Such dairy units
should be encouraged for processing of the milk and youth involved in the milk
collection and processing activity.
50
Village Turna
Village Turna is off the Malsian-Sultanpur Lodhi road on left side at a distance of
about 3km. An area of 152ha has been taken for treatment under the project at a

activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: A sum of Rs.0.73lakh has been provided for EPA. Most of
the village rain and sludge water goes into the pond located on the southern side of
the link road and this water after the road goes in a katcha channel which is full of
weeds and filth. The WC gave a resolution for the construction of a pucca channel in
place of this nala to take the rain and sludge water safely to the village pond. On the
basis of the resolution approval has been taken for the construction of this channel
and material had reached the site when the team visited.
Natural Resource Management: A provision of Rs.10.21lakh has been made for
civil work under NRM component. All the village community converged to the point of
common interest that included the management of the village pond. This pond is
spread over an area of 2acres and is full of weeds and silted up. The pond is also
under encroachment on two of its sides. The GP and WC wanted to construct
retaining walls on the existing boundary of the pond so as to establish permanent
points for avoiding future encroachment. It was decided to:
a) Remove weeds and de-silt the pond from all the corners to increase its storage
capacity.
51
b) To construct retaining wall all around for which measurements were taken and
total length was worked out as 576m. This may be limited to availability of
funds,
c) The layout of an underground pipeline from the corner near the transformer

Village Jalalpur Kalan
The village Jalalpur Kalan is situated on the right bank of Bein River and is linked
from Sidhupur via Shergarhi and is about 7km from the Lohian town. An earthen
embankment has been constructed along the Bein River starting from the railway
line and continues all along up to Mundi Kalu village. Some of the land of Jalalpur
Kalan is also situated inside the Bundh and is frequently flooded during heavy rains.
An area of 83ha has been taken for treatment under the project at the cost of
Rs.10.00lakh. The total population of this village is 772 (419 male & 353 female) with

Natural Resource Management: A provision
of Rs.5.02lakh has been made for civil works
under NRM component. It was reported by the
sarpanch that there are two ponds in the village
with a total area of 2.75acres. While the pond
on the school side receives maximum rain and
sludge water but the pond on the other side
near Harijan Basti receives much less water it POND- 1
60
was decided to connect both the ponds with an
underground pipeline for which measurements were taken and 123m underground
pipeline was planned to carry water of pond no.1 near school to pond no.2 near
Harijan Basti. When this water goes to pond no.2 then it will be used to irrigate the
land at higher level with an underground pipeline of 120m. It was further planned that
the retaining wall of pond no.1 in a length of 84m and height of 1m may be
constructed towards the abadi side so that encroachments already were made may
be put to halt. In case of pond no.2 in addition to cleanliness and earth removal an
earthen embankment may be constructed over a length of 265m. The measurements
were taken at site and the villagers were satisfied with the above said provisions
made in the scheme.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following

In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20% and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: Some members from the SC/ST families were
involved in discussions and it came out that two SHGs can be made for which the
names were noted by the WDT. The educated boys were interested in mobile repair
training and computer centre. Some of the boys wanted to enlarge the carpentry
work they are already doing as helpers with the main concern. The women members
specifically asked for the sewing and tailoring centre and suggested that the milk
collection centre should be established where number of boys can get gainful
employment. Dairy farming and poultry was suggested as one of the viable
subsidiary occupation for number of boys. There was a need for more awareness
generation in these villages as entry of PIA was very recent mainly for the formation
of watershed committees.

which the gram panchayat promised to provide the accommodation.
We motivated the young boys to take up floriculture and mushroom cultivation
because of the nearness to the town of Lohian.
Village Mundi Cholian
This village is located on Lohian-Manak-
Nahal and Mundi Cholian link road at a
distance of about 6km from Lohian. It is
located on the western side of the Bein which
passes through the land of this village. An
area of 180ha has been taken up for
treatment under the project at a total cost of
Rs.22.00lakh. The meeting was arranged by
Sh.Sukhwinder Singh president of the WC.
The group was explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims and objectives of the
program, its duration, activities covered under the program, allocation under different
components and also the roles and responsibilities of watershed committee. After
detailed discussions following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: The PIA obtained the resolution from the watershed
committee to install solar lights in the village with the sum of Rs.0.86lakh provided
under this component. The estimates for the solar lights have been sent for approval
and this work shall be completed during the current financial year.
Natural Resource Management: The sum of Rs.12.10lakh has been provided for
civil works under the NRM component. The community decided to renovate and
excavate the village pond spread over two kanals of land on the southern periphery
of the village. In fact all the sludge water going from the pucca channels made along
the streets goes to this pond which is full with weeds and have been silted up. it was
decided to:
77
a) Remove the weeds and de-silt the pond.
b) Construct the retaining wall on all the sides.
c) Lay out underground pipeline 10” dia RCC over a length of 330m for irrigation.
Since there is regular supply of sludge water which could be used to irrigate the land
of seven farmers having an area of 5ha on the lower side of the pond however the
pump stand, an engine and small room shall have to be constructed for this purpose.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20% and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: The majority of the village belongs to Rai-Sikh, an ST
community who developed the land along the Bein and Satluj River and started
settled life in this area popularly called “Mand Area”. They were interested to start
income generating activities like poultry farm, dairying, mushroom cultivation and
some of the boys interested in the training of diesel mechanic and electrician. The
78
WDT social needs to contact them for different type of training programmes. The
names of boys include:

Kulwinder Kaur, Salwinder Kaur, Lakhwinder Kaur, Rajwinder Kaur.
Mundi Shehrian
This village is linked from Lohian-
Nahal-Mundi Cholian and Mundi
Shehrian. It is located on the southern
side of Bein. In fact Bein gets lot of
flooding and back waters as it enters
the Satluj River just at distance of
4km. As a result water used to spread
on all sides inundating the lands of
Mundi Kalu, Mundi Shehrian and
Mundi Cholian. In order to protect
these villages, Dhusi Bunds (earthen
embankments) were raised on both
the sides of the Bein starting from the railway line up to Satluj River. The meeting in
the village was arranged by village Sarpanch and Jasbir Kaur president of WC and
Malkit Singh secretary WC. An area of 97ha has been taken up for treatment at a
cost of Rs.12.00lakh. The group was explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims
and objectives of the program, its duration, activities covered under the program,
allocation under different components and also the roles and responsibilities of

has been made under the project. The estimate for this activity have been sent for
approval and work is likely to be completed during the current financial year.
Natural Resource Management: A sum of Rs.6.52lakh has been provided for civil
works under the NRM component. We had detailed discussion on the best utilization
of this fund for overall benefit and production improvement in the village. However, it
was finally decided that the village pond situated on the northern periphery should be
renovated, repaired and retaining walls constructed. In case some funds are
available pipeline in a length of 300m may be laid to irrigate 4ha land of eight
farmers.

Village Mundi Kalu
This is the last village of the project situated
on the right bank of Bein River just before it
joins the Satluj River. Most of the land is
between the earthen bundh and Bein and
some land is on the other side of the river
cultivated by some farmers who actually are
not the owners of this land and the ownership
lies with the farmers of Mundi Kalu village. An
area of 162ha has been proposed for
treatment at a total cost of Rs.19.00lakh.
There are only 20 families with a population of about 130 but they mainly belong to
eight ancestral families. The meeting in the village was held on 13.12.2014. It was
noted that the watershed committee was yet not formed in this village. We contacted
prominent farmers and decided the activities. The group was explained the purpose
of the meeting, the aims and objectives of the program, its duration, activities
covered under the program, allocation under different components and also the roles
and responsibilities of watershed committee. After detailed discussions following
activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: The peripheral path of the village is full of potholes which are
being filled up with earth by the gram panchayat. It was decided that the earth filling
work on this path shall be done by the gram panchayat but brick lining work may be
carried out under the project out of Rs.0.70lakh provided under the project. The PIA
staff took the measurement and promised to get the estimate approved very shortly.
Natural Resource Management: There is a provision of Rs.9.80lakh for civil works
under the NRM component. We were informed that there is no pond in this village.
The problem of submergence of land during heavy rains is common but the water
would have to be lifted across the earthen bundh to put into the Satluj River. But
there is problem of getting electric connection for the motors which would lift the
water. After detailed discussions the following two activities were finalized:
a) The layout of underground pipeline from 8 private electric motors for irrigation
over a combined length of 2400m with 20% cost share.
b) Laser leveling with the remaining funds with 10% cost share.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural
university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
81
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be
promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun
and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per
requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is
proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project
funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20%
and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be
deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps
shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: The village has only 20 families and they agreed to
form one self help group in each village and a computer centre for training. Their
appeared could scope for dairy farming as all the families were keeping good
number of buffaloes.
SHAHKOT BLOCK VILLAGES
Village Khurampur
This village is in fact a ward of main Malsian village which was later on made a
separate revenue village and included under the project and situated on the southern
side of Akalpur village. An area of 228ha has been taken up for treatment under the
project at a total cost of Rs.27.00lakh. The meeting was organized in the
Anganwari/Dharmshala of the village
where the Sarpanch Sh.Jagir Singh,
WC President, members of WC and GP
and prominent members of the society
were present. The village is dominated
by the population of SC/ST families.
The group was explained the purpose of
the meeting, the aims and objectives of
the program, its duration, activities
covered under the program, allocation
under different components and also
the roles and responsibilities of
watershed committee. After detailed discussions and site visit the following activities
were finalized:
82
Entry Point Activities: The sewage channel carrying sludge water from the main
street up to a point near the Chitti Bein along a common path has already been laid.
Some of the nearby houses have channels on both sides of the street which are too
small, broken and need repair. It was decided by the WC that these channels should
be repaired and their capacity increased by remodeling and put into the sewage
channel at the end of the street. This proposal based on the resolution of the WC
has already been submitted for sanction and the work is likely to be completed
during this financial year.
Natural Resource Management: A provision of Rs.15.32lakh has been made for
civil works to be carried out under NRM component. The following activities were
finalized in the meeting:
a) In the rainwater and sewage water underground system purposed for village
Akalpur, a part of the budget of Khurampur shall be used as part of land of
village Khurampur shall be included in the command area of that irrigation
project.
b) The underground sewage line going to the Bein has several manholes provided
at regular interval. At one of the manhole, farmers block the flow by putting
sandbags in the channel. As the water level in the manhole rises, it is diverted
for irrigation on to a piece of land situated on northern side as the level of that
land is at a lower elevation. However, a big chunk of land on the left side is at
higher elevation and cannot receive the benefit of irrigation from sludge water.
After the inspection of the site it was decided that a small tank of 5mx3m size
shall be made on the sewage line in place of manhole. This tank shall be
divided into two parts. The first part would act as a silt trap and second part
shall be used to take water further into the pipeline. A gated system shall be
devised such that when water is needed on the lower side, a sluice valve could
be opened. In case some farmers want to use this water for irrigation in the
fields situated on left side at higher elevation, they may use this water by
installing a diesel engine and lift water.
Production System: Under the production system there was specific need that
clonal eucalyptus should be planted on both the banks of the Chitti Bein in the entire
stretch of land in this village. In addition, if funds are left fruit plants for homestead
and vegetable seeds may be provided.
Livelihood Support System: There is a sizeable population of landless, SC/ST
families who are interested in getting training and start Income Generating Activities.
Some of the families were interested in dairy farming, piggery, poultry and
mushroom cultivation. Sh.Jagir Singh President of Watershed Committee assured
that sufficient numbers of boys and girls are interested to take up various activities
as there are very small employment opportunities for educated youth.
83
The house suggested for setting up of a computer centre for all the members of
three villages at one place. Similarly, a sewing and tailoring centre may also be
established for the group of women from all the three villages. Two women members
were interested to start the beauty parlor. The PIA staff was requested to contact
Sh.Jagir Singh President WC, Smt.Manjeet Kaur, Smt.Parkash Kaur members of the
WC for taking up these activities in the village.
There was good response for the formation of SHG and Mrs.Kulwinder Kaur,
Kulwant Kaur, Gurmit Kaur, Amanpreet Kaur, Paramjeet Kaur, Gurdev Kaur,
Surinder Kaur, Daljeet Kaur give their names for starting the SHG. The ladies were
particularly interested in the sewing and tailoring centre.
Village Sahlanagar
Village Salahnagar is situated on the eastern side of Malsian Township and a
separate link road goes to Salahnagar from the main Nakodar-Malsian Highway on
to the right side. The land of Salahnagar is mainly located on the left side of the
highway but abadi is mainly on the right side of the road. A treatable area of 490ha
has been included under the project at a total cost of Rs.59.00lakh. This was a
typical village where the cultivated land was almost level and irrigated and as such
there was no old village pond. Most of
the rainwater and sludge water was
joining the main nala coming from the
Malsian Township and then drains into
Chitti Bein. The PRA meeting was held
in the premises of the gurdwara where
village sarpanch Smt.Krishna Devi and
WC president Sh.Amarjeet Singh were
present. The group was explained the
purpose of the meeting, the aims and
objectives of the program, its duration,
activities covered under the program, allocation under different components and also
the roles and responsibilities of watershed committee. After detailed discussions the
following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: A provision of Rs.2.35lakh has been made under this
component. The sewage system has already been installed in this small village but
some of the streets are not linked to the sewage line. It was desired that the sludge
water from the streets be carried in a bigger size open channel and put into the main
sewage system. The plan and estimate of the same have already been prepared on
the basis of resolution from the PIA and sent for approval. The work is likely to be
completed during the current financial year.
84
Natural Resource Management: A provision of Rs.32.93lakh has been made under
this component for civil works. Following activities were finalized:
a) As there was no village pond, the main focus of discussion was the
improvement of Gram Panchayat land and its irrigation system. There is
24acre shamlat land which needs rough leveling and then final leveling with
laser system.
b) There are two tube-wells in the shamlat land which should be linked with an
underground RCC pipeline of 10” dia with a length of 1500m.
c) Laser leveling may be carried out over an area of 500acre comprising of small
and marginal farmers where the cost sharing norms of 20% by general and
10% by SC/ST shall be followed.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural
university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be
promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun
and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per
requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is
proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project
funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20%
and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be
deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps
shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: As stated earlier there is sufficient population of
landless, SC/ST families where unemployment particularly of educated youth is a
serious problem. Several young boys were interested in getting training under poultry
farm, mushroom cultivation, floriculture, plumber, mechanic, electrician and mobile
repair. Sh.Amarjeet Singh President WC, Mrs.Sheetal Kaur member WC and
Smt.Krishna Devi Sarpanch Gram Panchayat assure that sufficient number of boys
and girls are interested in computer training.
85
A self help group is prepared to join hands and Mrs.Pritbha Rani would lead the
group. The women group was also interested in sewing and tailoring centre including
preparation of surf, candles, sweet box etc.
Village Baghpur
Village Baghpur is on the southern side of Raibwal and situated very close to the
Chitti Bein on its left bank. The adjoining Kangna village has already been covered
during last year under IWMP. An area of 102ha has been taken up for treatment at a
total cost of Rs.12.00lakh. The village is mostly inhabited by the sikh community. The
meeting was held in the school premises where watershed committee and GP
members were present including some women of the village.
The group was explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims and objectives of the
program, its duration, activities covered under the program, allocation under different
components and also the roles and responsibilities of watershed committee. After
detailed discussions the following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: The peripheral path on the northern side of the village is not
operative because the fields by the side of the path are about a meter at the lower
level and the path is often damage by the runoff water from the village. It was
decided by the WC to construct a retaining wall along the peripheral path from
gurdwara up to houdis of the sewage water. On the basis of resolution from the WC,
the estimates for the construction of this retaining wall have already been sent for
approval and work is likely to be completed during the current financial year. During
the meeting this item was discussed and the house re-iterated the same demand
time and again.
Natural Resource Management: The nominal fund of Rs.6.85lakh has been
provided for civil works under this component. During discussion is was revealed that
the land of the village is situated on both sides of the bein and connected by a
common katcha path. The remains under two to three feet of water and it becomes
difficult to cross bein with tractors and other farm equipment. A small iron bridge has
been made across bein through which scooter can ply across but farm machinery
cannot operate over the small bridge. This was the main problem of the village and
86
bein cause bank erosion on both sides of the bank and damage lands. The site was
visited by the team along with the entire committee and it was decided to put a low
height structure with raised sidewalls on both the sides and a bit longer apron.
Subsequently pipes can be placed on the apron and a structure cum operation
culvert could be constructed to serve the twin purpose of slightly raising the level of
Bein above the structure so that water can be lifted for irrigation and also the all
weather passage over the structure becomes functional. This proposal was highly
appreciated by the villagers and they agreed to share the cost in case the funds are
inadequate under this component. This type of culverts have een made across Bein
in some oher villagesalso. In case of floods, water over-flow the culvert and it does
not obstruct the flow of flood water which comes only once a while.
Production System: There is a provision of 1.22lakh under this component and
villagers decided that on both sides of the bein in the boundary of the village clonel
eucalyptus should be planted in the entire stretch. In addition some fruit plants and
vegetable kits maybe given as per need to the households.
Livelihood Support System: A self help group (Jagdeep) has already been
established in the village and this group should be activated by providing financial
support but the audit of the Self Help Group should be carried out. Sh.Harpreet
Singh president and Gurcharan Singh secretary informed that a sewing and tailoring
centre should be set up in the village.
The Youth Club of SC families was interested to set up a crockery and shamiana unit
where they can rent out chairs, tables, crockery and shamiana during marriages on
rent and generate income. Madam Manjinder Kaur supported the idea of setting up
another Self Help Group and also sewing and tailoring centre.
Village Haveli
Village Haveli is situated on the northern outskirts of Malsian Township. In fact
Malsian, Khurampur, Akalpur, Salahnagar and Haveli are one conglomerate of
different bastis given separate revenue numbers but as such they are contiguous
and form part of major Malsian Township. An area of 286ha has been taken for
87
treatment under IWMP at a total cost of Rs.34.00lakh. The meeting was arranged by
Sh.Kulbir SIngh president WC and Sh.Fatehjit Singh sarpanch of gram panchayat
Haveli. The group was explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims and
objectives of the program, its duration, and activities covered under the program,
allocation under different components and also the roles and responsibilities of
watershed committee.
After detailed discussions following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: The rainwater and sludge water of the village is not having
proper drainage system and it remains stagnating in the village streets. It was
decided to construct an open drainage channel to carry it to the main nala of village
Akalpur from where it would ultimately used for irrigation. This work would be
completed at a cost of Rs.1.37lakh provided under EPA component.
Natural Resource Management: A provision
of Rs.19.22lakh has been made for civil works
under NRM component. There is no regular
village pond in the close vicinity of the abadi.
But one pond at a distance of about 2km is
located on the road to village Sarai Khan. This
pond collects the runoff of the adjoining fields
but no sludge water of the village reaches this
point. The community decided to renovate
and make this pond functional for which
detailed inspection of the site was made. It was decided to excavate this pond
properly and then construct retaining walls including inlet and outlet and use it as a
fish pond. A farmer having land nearby and electric motor namely Sh.Malkit Singh
s/o Didar Singh village Haveli agreed to take this pond after development for rearing
fish. He promised to pay the rent as decided by the gram panchayat. Two more
farmers namely Gurdip Singh and Kulbir Singh also have land on the western side of
the pond who could also be involved in the activity of rearing fish. All the
88
measurements of the site were made and finally decided to develop it as a fish pond
so that the problem of flooding is solved and gram panchayat also gets some
revenue by auctioning the fish pond.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural
university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be
promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun
and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per
requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is
proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project
funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20%
and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be
deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps
shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: In this village about 90% of the population belongs to
SC/BC category. Sh.Fatehjit Singh sarpanch motivated them to take up some
income generating activities and also form SHGs. Smt.Manjit Kaur, Swarn Kaur,
Jagir Kaur, Jaswinder Kaur, Paramjit Kaur came forward to start the SHG. There
were others like Bira Singh, Sukh Lal, Manga Ram, Prem Chand, Sukhdev Singh,
Balwinder Singh, Sukhdev Singh who were also interested to start a separate SHG
and start income generating activities with the support from the project.
Since the village is very close to the Malsian Township the activities like candle
making, sweet box making, book binding, stitching of garments and beauty parlor
could be started after proper training. The PIA was requested to organize these
groups.
89
Village Akalpur
The town of Malsian is located on the
junction of Nakodar-Sultanpur Lodhi and
Nakodar-Moga road and is a small town of
this area. There are four revenue villages in
a cluster almost joining each other namely
Malsian, Akalpur, Khurampur and
Salahnagar. The village Malsian was
covered under IWMP Jalandhar-IV/2012-13
but the remaining three villages were
included under IWMP Jalandha-V/2013-14.
A treatable area of 207ha was included under the project at a total cost of
Rs.25.00lakh. The village is located at a high mound and Chitti Bein passes through
the northern side at a distance of about half a kilometer.
All the rainwater and sludge water goes into the Chitti Bein through different
channels. The meeting for the preparation of DPR was held in a local gurdwara of
Akalpur where WC members, GP members, prominent farmers and farm women
joined. Sh.Baldev Singh Sarpanch of the village and Sh.Ashwani Kumar President of
WC were present and explained the major problems of their village. The group was
explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims and objectives of the program, its
duration, activities covered under the program, allocation under different components
and also the roles and responsibilities of watershed committee. After detailed
discussions the following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: The main abadi of Akalpur is situated on both sides of a
peripheral link road on one side of which there is a pucca channel which carries the
rainwater and runoff water into the main nala which further carry the same from
upper areas and joins the Chitti Bein by traversing through the fields. The WC give a
resolution that the channel carrying rainwater and sludge water is broken and katcha
at several places and have narrow section and need wider section from gurdwara up
to the main channel. So this channel in a length of about 300m needs to be re-
constructed for which a provision of Rs.1.00lakh has been made under EPA. It was
reported by the PIA staff that an estimate for the construction of this channel has
already gone for approval and this work will be constructed during the current
financial year. All the participants of the meeting agreed to this proposal.
Natural Resource Management: Under the component of civil works for NRM, a
provision of Rs.13.91lakh has been made under the project. The main concern of the
community was that there is sufficient sludge water flowing around the year part of
which is already used through katcha channels for irrigation and the remaining part
goes un-utilized into the Chitti Bein. There is good scope for efficient utilization of all
the sludge water for which the following activities were finalized:
90
a) A tank should be constructed across the main drainage channel carrying the
sludge water just after the point up to which the channel is pucca and then a
katcha channel starts. This tank would be made to filter out the floating material
and also to settle down the suspended material and then carry into the pipeline
as purposed by Sant.Balbir Singh Sichewal.
b) After the tank, a pipeline shall be laid through the higher fields which are not
covered by irrigation from sludge water and taken to a six Kanal shamlat land
nearby.
c) At the shamlat land a new pond shall be excavated and this water shall be
disposed off into the new pond.
d) From the new pond again a pipeline shall be laid which shall join after about
50m with the main open channel carrying sludge water for irrigation. So this
alignment would cover some additional area for irrigation and also fill up a pond
from which the farmers located at higher elevation can lift water for irrigation of
their lands.
e) On the older course of this channel, a lined channel mat be constructed to take
sludge water from tank for irrigation to low lying fields.
f) Since the cost of the entire pipeline,lined open channel, pond excavation and
tank shall be more than the provision under NRM so part of the budget of NRM
from Khurampur shall be used for this purpose as some of their land shall also
be covered for irrigation. Incidentally, while holding the PRA meeting at
Khurampur, the WC agreed to provide half of their NRM funds for this purpose.
Production System: Under the production system there was specific need that
clonal eucalyptus should be planted on both the banks of the Chitti Bein in the entire
stretch of land in this village. In addition, if funds are left fruit plants for homestead
and vegetable seeds may be provided.
Livelihood Support System: There is a sizeable population of landless, SC/ST
families who are interested in getting training and start Income Generating Activities.
Some of the families were interested in dairy farming, piggery, poultry and
mushroom cultivation. Sh.Ashwani Kumar President of Watershed Committee
assured that sufficient numbers of boys and girls are interested to take up various
activities as there are very small employment opportunities for educated youth.
The house suggested for setting up of a computer centre for all the members of
three villages at one place. Similarly, a sewing and tailoring centre may also be
established for the group of women from all the three villages. Two women members
were interested to start the beauty parlor. The PIA staff was requested to contact
Sh.Baldev Singh Sarpanch, Sh.Ashwani Kumar President WC, Smt.Bhajan Kaur,
Smt.Swarn Kaur w/o Tara Singh for taking up these activities in the village.

Village Raibwal
The village Raibwal is under Shahkot
Block of Jalandhar district and is located
on right side of Nakodar-Malsian Road
about 3km before Malsian on to the right
side on a link road. The 1.5km link road
is still katcha. The meeting was held in
the Harijan Dharmshala which was
organized by Sh.Baldev Raj, Watershed
Committee president and Sh.Harjinder
Singh, Secretary, in which members of
the WC and members of Gram Panchayat and other prominent figures both from
farming and non-farming Harijan community were present. The village is dominated
by the population of Harijans. The streets of the village have pucca with channels on
both the sides which drain sludge water and rainwater into the village pond situated
on the eastern side on the peripheral road.
There is 12acres of Gram Panchayat land out of which nine acres are in a block
separated by Chitti Bein where 3.5acres are beyond Bein and 5.5acres are on the
side of the village. The group was explained the purpose of the meeting, the aims
and objectives of the program, its duration, activities covered under the program,
allocation under different components and also the roles and responsibilities of
watershed committee. There is a provision of Rs.22lakhs under the project for the
treatment of 180ha of land. The villagers by and large discussed the problem of
village pond which get flooded during rains and water spills over to the streets and
create problems for the nearby houses.
After detailed discussions the following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: A sum of Rs.0.86lakh has been provided under this
component for which the WC gave a resolution to the PIA for the installation of seven
solar lights and one RO and cooler in the school. The solar lights are proposed on
four corners of the village, one in school, one in dharmshala and one in gurdwara.
The estimates for the EPA activities have already been sent for approval and work is
likely to be executed during the current year itself.
Natural Resource Management: A provision of Rs.11.08lakh has been made under
the project for civil works to be carried out under NRM. The main activities finalized
are as under:
a) De-siltation and removal of weeds from the pond.
b) Construction of retaining wall along the silted side over a length of 60m
including the ramp.
c) Laser leveling of 12acre Gram Panchayat land.
92
d) Construction of 320m 10” dia RCC underground pipeline to be laid across
bein for the irrigation of Gram Panchayat land.
e) In case funds are left then about 100acres of laser leveling for small and
marginal farmers may be carried out.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural
university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be
promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun
and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per
requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is
proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project
funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20%
and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be
deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps
shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and
there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: As the village population is mostly from landless,
SC/ST families there was great demand for support to micro-enterprises after getting
training and financial support. The young boys from SC families were interested in
taking up welding, shuttering, computer course, diesel mechanic and chakki.
Sh.Gurbir Singh, Jaspal Singh, Sarbjeet Singh, Baldev Singh, Gurmej Singh, Tirlok
Singh, Sohan Singh and Gurkirat Singh opted for dairying, poultry and vendor for
milk collection.
93
The women present in the meeting give their names to form SHGs where Kamaljeet
Kaur, Sukhwinder Kaur, Reena Rani, Sibo Rani, Debo Rani, Parveen Kaur give their
names to form SHG. The gram panchayat sarpanch Ranjeet Kaur had a separate
meeting with the visiting group and assured all help and assistance to the PIA for the
effective implementation of the project.
Village Sarai Kham
The village Sarai Kham is situated on
the right bank of Chitti Bein and is linked
with the main Malsian-Sultanpur Lodhi
road via Maliawal-Dada Lehna. The
village is situated very close to the Chitti
Bein and the land of the village is
located on both the sides. The Chitti
Bein carries the runoff and sludge water
of the village. A pipeline has already been laid from the village pond up to the Bein to
carry the sludge water. The village is situated at a high mound and the land is at a
lower elevation and general slope of the land is from the north to south. An area of
165ha has been taken for treatment at a total cost of Rs.20.00lakh.
The meeting was held at a common place in the village and attended by the village
sarpanch Sh.Jasbir Singh and WC president Sh.Atma Singh. Large number of
farmers and farm women were present in the meeting. The group was explained the
purpose of the meeting, the aims and objectives of the program, its duration,
activities covered under the program, allocation under different components and also
the roles and responsibilities of watershed committee. During discussions the main
problem highlighted was the safe disposal of sludge and rainwater and its use for
irrigation. After detailed deliberations the following activities were finalized:
Entry Point Activities: A sum of Rs.0.79lakh has been provided for EPA under the
project. After getting the resolution from the watershed committee a proposal for
installation of solar lights at strategic locations has been floated by the PIA for
approval. This work is likely to be completed during the current financial year.
Natural Resource Management: A sum of Rs.11.09lakh has been provided for civil
works under NRM component. The village pond is situated on south-western side on
the periphery of the village and most of the rainwater and sludge water enters into
the pond. As per revenue record the area under the pond is 3kanal and 7marla. It is
located at a lower elevation close to the link road. No pulley/culvert has been
provided below the road for drainage of excess water.
94
During the rainy season, as the pond overflows, the link road block the flow and
adjoining areas of the pond are submerged. This is the major problem and proper
solution was required. The following activities under this component were finalized
after detailed site inspection:
a) Weed removal, de-siltation and renovation of pond.
b) Construction of broken, incomplete retaining walls.
c) Lay out of underground pipeline across Bein River. 25m GI 15cm dia pipe
over a length of 25m to irrigate 3.5acre of land on the other side of the Bein
River.
d) The runoff water from the fields on the bank of the Bein river when enters into
the river forms rills and gullies where 15chutes are provided for safe disposal
of water.
e) In case some funds are left, the remaining amount may be used for laser
leveling in the lands of small and marginal farmers with cost sharing norms.
Production System: 9% of the project funds are provided for improving the
production potential of the farm lands and also of the livestock. The farmers are
interested in high yielding and disease resistant varieties of crops. The following
activities have been unanimously decided by the WC.
Provision of improved seeds of crops recommended by the agricultural university Ludhiana/ Department of Agriculture, State of Punjab.
In order to improve the vegetation cover in the village agro-forestry shall be promoted by providing saplings of clonal eucalyptus, poplar, drake, jamun and any other shade plant wanted by the farmers.
In order to improve the family nutrition, 10 saplings of fruit plants as per requirement shall be supplied from the approved nurseries to every family.
The kitchen garden is an essential part of improving family nutrition. So it is proposed to provide vegetable seed kits to desirous families from the project funds.
It was made very clear that the general category families shall share 20% and SC/ST families 10% share cost of the above items which shall be deposited in the WC fund.
In order to takecare the health of livestock, two animal health care camps shall be organized in the village and veterinarians would be invited to inspect
95
the livestock and recommend the medicines which shall be provided then and there from the project funds including the mineral mixture if recommended.
Livelihood Support System: The second major demand of this village was a bridge
over the Bein river because they are to travel all the way to Maliawal and then reach
Malsian by traversing a distance of 9km where as a crow fly Malsian is hardly 3km.
The proposal of bridge is pending with the district administration. As regards
livelihood activity the following ladies give their name for starting Self Help Group:
Charanjit Kaur w/o Gurnam Singh, Amarjeet Kaur w/o Santokh Singh, Amarjeet Kaur
w/o Lakhwinder Singh, Hardeep Kaur w/o Tirath Singh, Sarbjeet Kaur w/o Joga
Singh, Rajwinder Kaur w/o Sandeep Singh, Savita Rani w/o Jaswinder Singh,
Prabdeep Kaur w/o Jarnail Singh, Mamta w/o Santokh Singh, Kulwinder Kaur w/o
Jaspal Singh, Amandeep Kaur w/o Santokh Singh, Rajwinder Kaur w/o Balraj Singh.
In case of gainful employment for landless and SC/ST families which constitute a
sizeable number in the village there was demand for starting a sewing and tailoring
centre and also a computer centre. Sh.Atma Singh President of WC promised to
motivate more than two dozen unemployed youth to come forward for training and
starting livelihood activities.

CHAPTER – V
ENTRY POINT ACTIVITIES
This is an important activity of the preparatory phase for which 3.6% of the funds are
earmarked. The main purpose is to develop confidence of the community about the
commitment of the project and develop rapport with the people. Any most prioritized
activity of common welfare is executed in the village which provides some relief to
most of them. Adopting a participatory approach, the EPA activities were identified
by the expert team. However, some of the activities in few villages were already
identified and also executed by the PIA which were taken as such and got included
in the DPR. The list of entry point activities finalized in project villages is given below.

These EPAs were finalized by actually visiting the sites along with staff and WC
members and villagers. We noted that since village Sarpanch was made to actively
participate in the identification of activites, most Sarpanches took keen interest in the
programme and activities thus identified were aimed at solving some real problems
or were need based and demand driven. The WCs were specifically requested to
develop protocols for maintenance of these activities and some cess fund should be
created for maintenance. Based upon the funds available for EPA, the quantity of
works was adjusted and shortfall shall be met from MNREGA.
Since part of funds under EPA has been received by the PIA, the estimates have
been prepared as per funds availability and sent for approval of the competent
authority. Most of these works would be executed during the year 2014-15.

CHAPTER – VI
INSTITUTIONAL AND CAPACITY BUILDING
1. INTRODUCTION
Watershed development is conceived as a strategy for protecting livelihoods of people inhabiting fragile ecosystems, which over period of time have become subject to multidimensional land degradation. Main stress has been to ensure availability of water for drinking and irrigation to support agro-horti-forestry operation vis-à-vis raise income level and provide adequate employment opportunities for communities living in such areas of concerns. As an intervention Integrated Wasteland Development is nearly 20 years old. The initiatives have been subject to periodic reviews by expert committees with a broader view to improve upon its strategy and components as well as match with the growing socio-ecological requirements
Para 9.VIII of common guidelines necessitate capacity building and training of all functionaries and stakeholders involved watershed programme on a war footing with definite action plan, requisite professionalism and all round competence.
2. VISION
A sincere effort is required to provide professionalism and competence to the stakeholders associated with planning and implementation of IWMP in the state. This would include organization development, human resource development, cooperation and network development and institutional development, all seen as a continuous process enabling functionaries to enhance their knowledge and skills and to develop the required orientation and perspectives thereby becoming more effective in discharging their roles and responsibilities.
3. NEED
The team Capacity Development is understood as the development of peoples, organizations and societies‟ capability to manage resources effectively and efficiently in order to realize their own goals on a sustainable basis. In this context, four dimensions have to be distinguished:
The development of the human resource or personnel development.
The strengthening of the effectiveness and efficiency of organization or organizational development.
The strengthening of cooperation between organizations and network development.
The promotion of institutional frameworks for development.
The implementation of new projects under the umbrella of common guidelines is
reported to be in the initial stage under preparatory phase. The establishment of
desired institutional setup at all levels, required level of awareness for ensuring
effectiveness of all institutional and community participation is, therefore,
necessitated for conclusive participation by all.This also necessitates a
comprehensive package to provide appropriate knowledge for speedy
implementation of the projects in the state particularly in the districts.
99
4. RATIONALE
Para 81 of common guidelines for watershed development lays special emphasis on the following key elements of Capacity building strategy.
Dedicated & decentralized institutional support & delivery mechanism Annual Action Plan for Capacity Building Pool of resource persons Well prepared training modules and reading materials Mechanism for effective monitoring and follow-up.
Keeping in firsthand experience of the state in launching projects under IWMP and current state of planning and implementation under preparatory phase the action plan is primarily prepared to build the capacity of different principal stakeholders of the project to speed up further implementation and also lay a strong foundation for subsequent phases.
5. OBJECTIVES
The main objectives of the current action plan for ongoing project are outlined as under.
- Create common understanding on different features and provisions of common guidelines as well as instructions and directions issued from time to time by Central and State Governmental agencies.
- Develop proper conceptual understanding about integrated participatory watershed management including other issues such as equity, environmental and social sustainability among all implementing agencies at project and village levels, PRIs and local communities (KNOWLEDGE).
- Build necessary and required skills and managerial competence of all stakeholders about planning, implementation and management of various project activities using participatory approach (SKILLS).
- Help institutional growth of watershed committees at GP level. - Strengthening community participation, ensuring positive involvement of
communities and improvement of socio economic conditions in watershed areas (ATTITUDES).
6. TRAINING METHODS
A group of selected Watershed Development Team members would be trained on various methods to ensure that they are able to conduct the proposed interventions effectively with the help of some of the following methods.

9 EXPECTED OUTCOME OF CAPACITY BUILDING
All principal stakeholders would be covered under proposed training interventions.
The knowledge level of different stakeholders on various provisions of Common Guidelines will increase to a significant level.
The skill level of the principal stakeholders will be improved in managing watershed projects in consonance with the provisions of common guidelines and state government instructions.
The programmes will help in ensuring that all stakeholders/agencies/institutions work with positive attitudes in order to utilize the benefit of the projects in fulfilling the objectives set forth.
101
Programmes will create a sense of responsible partnership amongst various stakeholders.
The programmes will also help in further identifying areas for future interventions.
Improved participation of different stakeholders leading to speedy implementation of watershed development work phase.
Experiences would help in consolidating other gaps for better planning and management of Capacity Building and Training interventions under new projects in future.
It is a process to strengthen the abilities of the people, organizations, and systems; to make effective and efficient use of resources; to achieve set goals on sustainable basis. Watershed development requires an effective strategy to focus on CB of all stakeholders at National, State, District and Project level. The CB strategy of IWMPs defines that programs and services be operationalized in decentralized manner in partnership with public and private institutions for delivery of quality services. The CB need of different levels is different and a need based strategic planning is required for output oriented CD. Quite often CB is considered synonymous with trainings blended with tourism and fails to make positive changes. Provision of laptops, GPs, latest topo-sheets, and survey instruments are part of capacity building in the system for faster communication and time saving. Development of skills as per interest and aptitude of workers is part of CB. Continuous exposure of professionals and managers to latest developments and flow of information is necessary for any vibrant organization.
10 PROVISION OF FUNDS FOR CAPACITY BUILDING
As per DLR guidelines, 4.5% of the total funds are earmarked for capacity building of various
stakeholders as per detail given below:

10.5 Institutional Arrangements under IWMP
Institutions play a major role in managing the projects. Realizing the importance of
Community Participation, Decentralized Participatory Approach has been adopted for
Watershed Management. Following decentralization and to achieve the objectives, there
needs to be an Institutional Set Up not only at National and State Level but also at Village
Level (Micro Watershed Level), Cluster Level (Sub Watershed level), and District Level.
These institutions need to be oriented from time to time and empowered so that they take up
the assigned tasks and realize their responsibilities right from the beginning – from planning
stage to effective management of Projects. Considering the prevalent circumstances, these
Institutions should take decisions at their respective level. The involvement and participation
of beneficiaries and other stakeholders desire to be encouraged right from the planning
stage.The institutional set up is given below.
10.6 Institutional Set-Up
It has effects on the level of people‟s participation in Watershed Management. Institutions at
the above levels would help in building relations between Project Implementing Agency and
the village community as well at Sub Watershed level. Ultimately this would result into the
successful implementation and will have direct positive impacts on the outcome of the
Projects. As per Common Guidelines, Institutional arrangements have been made at
appropriate level as detailed below for successful implementation and effective management
of IWMP in the Project Area. Under the Projects, the following institutions have been set up:
A. State Level Nodal Agency:
State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA) headed by Joint Development Commissioner and
supported by Technical Experts is fully functional and they are regularly holding their
meetings with PIA and other stakeholders and providing necessary guidance to them
as per Common Guidelines 2008.
DOLR, Ministry of Rural Development
State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA)
Watershed Cell cum Data Centre (WCDC)
0 Project Implementing Agency (PIA)
Watershed Development Team
WC SHG/UG Gram Sabha
106
B. Watershed Cell cum Data Centre (WCDC)
WCDC is functional. WCDC is headed by Technical expert and supported by Accounts
officer and Data Entry Operator. WCDC will function in close coordination with PIA
AND SLNA.
C. Project Implementing Agency (PIA)
Department of Soil & Water Conservation is PIA for the projects. PIA has dedicated
and well experienced staff led by Sub Divisional Soil Conservation Officer having
adequate knowledge of Watershed Activities. Office of Chief Conservator of Soils,
Punjab and respective Divisional Heads are closely monitoring the project and
providing necessary guidance for successful implementation of the projects. The
Project Implementing Agency (PIA) is providing necessary technical guidance to the
Gram Panchayats through Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) for development of
assets created during the project, post-project operation and maintenance of the
assets created under the Projects.
D. Watershed Development Team
The process of constitution of WDT has recently been constituted by PIA. Each WDT
should have at least three to four members, broadly with knowledge and experience in
agriculture, soil science, water management, social mobilization and institutional
building. At least one of the WDT members would be a woman, especially for social
mobilization. Sub Divisional Soil Conservation Officer/Soil Conservation Officer would
be team leader of Watershed Development Team. The members of WDT would
perform their duties as per Common Guidelines for Watershed Management 2008.
10.7 Institutional Setup at Watershed Level
I. Self Help Groups: In each Village, Self Help Groups consisting of 10 to 15 members
having common goal are being formed. The members of SHGs would be drawn from
very poor families, BPL families, SC families, land less families, small and marginal
farmers. SHG would be homogeneous in nature and would work together for their
socio-economic up-liftment. SHGs need to be imparted Basic Orientation and
Trainings for their skill up-gradation. It is responsibility of Watershed Committee to
form SHGs in their respective villages under the guidance of Watershed
Development Team and Project Implementing Agency.
II. User Groups: In each Watershed village, user groups are also being formed.
Members of these groups would be those persons who are going to get direct
benefits from Watershed Activities. These groups would be constituted by
Watershed Committees. These groups would also be homogeneous in nature. The
members of the groups are responsible for maintaining the assets created under the
Project. User Groups will evolve their rules regarding use of resources. They will be
provided technical support by Watershed Committee and Watershed Development
Team.
III. Watershed Committees: In all Villages, Watershed Committees have been formed
to implement the Watershed project with the technical support of the WDT. The
representatives of WCs are from SHGs, User Groups, SC, women and land less
people. Gram Sabha has elected office bearers of WC. Bank account is being
opened by WC. The funds received under the project would be utilized for
107
Watershed Activities. Officer bearers have defined roles and they will be provided
guidance by PIA and WDT.
IV. Gram Sabha: Gram Sabha is also being sensitized on their roles and
responsibilities under the Project. Plan is being chalked out for regular meetings with
them. This would further enlighten them on the subject.
10.8 Plans for Imparting Training to Institutions
PIA has since commenced imparting training to above institutions on their roles and
responsibilities as per Common Guidelines 2008. Special focus is also being paid to
sensitize village community for decision making process. For this purpose, Awareness
Generation camps have been conducted in the identified villages and in near future one
more round of camps are being organized in the identified villages so as to make people
aware of the long and term short benefits, their roles and responsibilities etc.
The number of changes has been made in the guidelines from time and time and finally
DoLR guidelines for 2011 has supplemented the common guidelines of 2008 and these
forms the basis for all watersheds. The emphasis is on holistic development of rural
economy by offering them package. Keeping in view the past experience, focus is given on
participatory planning and capacity building of all stakeholders‟ right from the beginning i.e
from planning stage to implementation and managing the assets created under the project
during project period. It has been felt that Institutional Arrangements need to be made so
as to monitor the project and manage the same effectively. It has further been felt that with
community participation, the desired results could be achieved in time frame.
10.9 Allocation of Funds for Capacity Building:
As per provision of DLR guidelines, 4.5% of total funds are allocated for capacity
building of various stakeholders of the IWMP project. The 4.5% of 603 lacs works out to be
Rs.27.13. The allocation of Rs. 27.13lacs for various types of trainings is given in table 6.3.
10.10 Capacity Building Plan for IWMP - V District Jalandhar 10.10.1 Capacity Building Plan of SLNA As per the provisions, the funds to the tune of Rs.1.63lacs has been provided for Capacity Building to the SLNA @Rs.1.09, 0.27 and 0.27 for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd year of the project respectively. These funds shall go to the pool of funds generated at the SLNA headquarter. These funds would be used by the SLNA for different Capacity Building Programs as per the identified needs rising during implementation of the program which would be applicable for all the projects under the SLNA. Some of the suggested training modules of common interest are as under:
Orientation training program on concept and design of IWMP for new WDT staff recruited in various districts.
Application of GIS in planning watershed programs.
Preparation of success stories, films, documentaries for the successful project interventions for knowledge/experience sharing.

CHAPTER –VII
NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Major share of 50.4 percent of total budget is allocated to natural resource
management works which mainly relate to land and water management with a
sharp focus to reverse the trend of resources degradation and improve the
production potential. Most of these works are community based. The user
groups are formed for resource sharing, programme operation and
maintenance. During field visits and transit walks, the technical feasibility was
carefully examined.
7.1 Main Activities Identified Under NRM
Ponds water disposal through underground RCC pipes and use of
pond water for irrigation of Panchayat/Shamlat land.
Repair, renovation and construction of retaining walls of ponds, de-
siltation for capacity enhancement
Underground pipe conveyance system for irrigation of common
shamlat lands of Gram Panchayats and private lands.
Lined open channel for runoff and sludge water disposal mainly to
augment pond water capacity.
Laser leveling - @Rs.2500/acre – 4hrs tractor operations – WC to
decide beneficiaries for equitable coverage
7.2 Detail of proposed works and their drawings
In each village the identified civil works under NRM were inspected and
detailed measurements were recorded in the presence of the village
community. Subsequently, the maps were drawn on the graph sheets and
proposed works were shown with detailed drawings for the benefit of the PIA.
On these drawings, the proposed works are shown with different notations
and all the maps are presented village wise in the following section.
These measurements were then taken for the detailed cost estimates based
on the present schedule of rates. The cost models for all the civil works were
prepared in consultation with the PIA staff and the same were followed for
working out the detailed cost estimates.

CHAPTER – VIII
PRODUCTION SYSTEM
One of the important components in the Common Guidelines for Watershed
Development Projects – 2008 includes support to production/farming system based
livelihood activities and enterprises. Ten percent of the total project cost has been
assigned to support the production system and microenterprises for land owning
households. This component aims to diversify and maximize the production and
productivity of agriculture system as a whole and targets the land holders with
cascading benefits to landless, agriculture labour, leased -in farmers and share -
croppers. The objective is to:
a) Promote diversified production/farming systems based livelihood activities/
interventions, and.
b) Encourage farmers to adopt and up-scale successful experiences of proven
technologies, integrated farming systems and improved farming practices for
livelihood augmentation.
The most important aspect in implementation would be provision of micro level
planning for production/farming system at the planning stage itself. The detail is as
under.
The PIA will be responsible to implement the production system and
microenterprises related livelihood component of IWMP.
The team attempted to analyze the status of natural resources potential to
determine the befitting production system and microenterprises based
livelihoods conducive to the socio economic situation and existing livelihood
capital of the watershed village(s) in a participatory manner at village level
under each micro-watershed during the preparatory phase of the project.
The exercise was undertaken by means of PRA, net planning and focus group
discussion in order to facilitate collection of information to feed into DPR
which will be a prerequisite for availing the funds under the production system
and microenterprises component.
The team prepared action plan for production system and microenterprises
based livelihood activities such as horticulture, agriculture, agro-forestry,
animal husbandry, microenterprise, agro- processing, value addition,
marketing etc. and made integral part of DPR.
To ensure convergence with other production system and microenterprises
schemes, the PIA should work in close association with other schemes such
as MGNREGS, NRLM, NHM, RKVY, NFSM, etc. This should also be duly
reflected in convergence plan in the DPR.
Production system and microenterprises action plan contain location/farmer
centric schedule of activities and interventions.
146
On the basis of interaction with large number of stake holders, the following activities
were short listed, based on the local socio-economic and bio-physical conditions of
the project area.
Most farmers were interested in colonel eucalyptus
Fruit plants for homesteads @10plants/family where lemon, guava, ber,
jamun were the main choices
Animal health care camps, supply of medicines, mineral mixtures
Seeds of latest high yielding crops like wheat, paddy, sorghum, bajra, peas,
garlic
Vegetable seed kits from PAU Ludhiana
During field visits, it was noted that clonel eucalyptus has been planted by the
farmers on field bunds and also in small blocks. This was particularly preferred along
the banks of Drainage lines. The clonel eucalyptus is preferred because of its
straight and fast growth. Most farmers have kept livestock mainly buffaloes for
domestic use and farm yard manure. Those farmers who keep larger herds sell the
milk to the local vendors.

CHAPTER –IX
LIVELIHOOD SUPPORT SYSTEM
It is now well recognized that more attention must be paid to the various factors and
processes which either constrain or enhance poor people‟s ability to make a living in
an economically, ecologically, and socially sustainable manner. The SL concept
offers a more coherent and integrated approach to poverty. A livelihood comprises
the capabilities, assets (including both material and social resources) and activities
required for a means of living. A livelihood is sustainable when it can cope with and
recover from stresses and shocks, maintain or enhance its capabilities and assets,
while not undermining the natural resource base.
There are three insights into poverty which
underpin this new approach. The first is the
realization that while economic growth may
be essential for poverty reduction, there is not
an automatic relationship between the two
since it all depends on the capabilities of the
poor to take advantage of expanding
economic opportunities. Secondly, there is
the realization that poverty as conceived by
the poor themselves is not just a question of
low income, but also includes other dimensions such as bad health, illiteracy, lack of
social services, etc., as well as a state of vulnerability and feelings of powerlessness
in general. Finally, it is now recognized that the poor themselves often know their
situation and needs best and must therefore be involved in the design of policies and
project intended to better their lot.
An awareness drive was undertaken at Gram Panchayat level for communication &
sensitization of the beneficiaries.
The livelihood action plan was prepared
during the DPR preparation in consultation
with WDT, WC and the members of SHGs,
SC/ ST, women, landless/ assetless
households. This plan formed an integral part
of DPR. The Team analyzed socio-economic
conditions and existing livelihoods of the
villagers by means of PRA and focus group
discussions. Livelihood action plan contain
schedule of activities, interventions, no. of
SHGs to be assisted and expected outcome. To promote convergence, the PIA
should work in close association with other employment generating programmes
149
such as MGNREGS, NRLM, etc. The plan may be reviewed by the PIA, if need be,
and revised in consultation with the stakeholders.
As per provision of 8.1% of funds for LSS, a sum of Rs.48.99lakh has been provided
under this component out of which 34.31lakh covers the revolving fund assistance
(@70% of LSS funds) to 57 SHGs and support to 46 enterprising individuals. 57 nos.
of courses of cutting and tailoring shall be organized and 5 computer centres shall be
opened in villages having larger share of funds (Table 9.2).
As per provision of 30% of funds for grant in aid in this component a provision of
Rs.14.70lakh has been made in which 57 SHGs shall be provided assistance on an
average each group would be able to avail roughly Rs.0.25lakh (Table 9.1).
The mode of operation of livelihood activities as per DOLR guidelines would be as under.
i. The livelihood activities will be implemented through Self Help Groups.
However financial support to enterprising individuals could also be considered
subject to a maximum of 10% of the funds under the livelihood component.
ii. Livelihood activities can be carried out either through the existing SHGs having
good performance or new SHGs formed with a group of 5-20 persons.
iii. SHGs selected for implementing livelihood activities should be homogeneous
in-terms of their existing livelihood, common interest and need.
iv. SHGs can undertake any permissible activity jointly as a group or the group
may decide to support individual(s) for the activities under the umbrella of the
main SHG. In case of individual support under the SHGs, the individuals will be
accountable to the main SHG for finances and performance.
v. The financial support to enterprising individuals who prepare and submit a
viable livelihood proposal, may be considered by Watershed Cell cum Data
Centre (WCDC) on the recommendation of the Watershed Committee (WC).
The plan has to be approved by the WCDC before extending financial support.
However, support to individuals should not exceed a maximum of 10 % of funds
under the livelihood component.
Eligibility for availing the funds under the Livelihood Component
i. The beneficiaries should belong to
marginalized communities, including
SC/ST, landless/assetless people,
women, etc., among which preference
will be given to women, especially
female headed households, ST & SCs.
ii. It may be ensured that the selected
SHG does not have more than one
member from a household.
150
iii. Priority may be given to women SHGs.
Budget, procedure of release and administration:
i. 8.1% of the total project fund is earmarked as the livelihood component for the
benefit of marginalized communities, including SC/ST, landless/assetless
people, women, etc.
ii. This earmarked amount shall be taken out of the total project fund as a grant to
WC in its bank account, which in turn will be used to provide financial
assistance, (seed money for revolving fund to SHGs and a grant -in -aid for
enterprising SHGs/ SHG federations to undertake major livelihood activities).
iii. At least 70% of this livelihood fund will be used to support revolving fund for
SHGs, including support to enterprising individuals, and a maximum of 30% for
supporting grant–in–aid to enterprising SHGs/ SHG federations.
Seed Money for Revolving Fund:
Seed money for SHGs
i. Each SHG shall make an application for financial assistance to the WC. WC in

The interaction with unemployed youth revealed that they were mainly interested in
the opening of a computer centre in their villages and also wanted crash courses as
electrician, diesel mechanic, welder, mobile rapair, mason work, plumber, carpenter,
milk vendor, scooter/motorcycle repair as these jobs are in demand in these rural
areas. The PIA may contact the department of industrial training at Jalandhar for
organizing short courses in the above said disciplines.
The women members of the community were very much interested in the sewing
and tailoring centres which may be established in the village itself. The gram
panchayats agreed to provide suitable space for such computer and tailoring centre.
Depending upon the total population and the population of SC/ST/BPL/Landless
families the number of computer and sewing and tailoring centres have been
proposed in the report. In the subsidiary occupations backyard poultry, bee-keeping,
mushroom cultivation, dairy farming, piggery and goatary, fishery were some of the
preferred options. The women members were also interested to get training in
candle making, sweet box making, surf/phenyl/soap making, pickles and squashes
etc.

CONSOLIDATION PHASE
10.1 MONITORING & EVALUATION
Plans for monitoring & Evaluation Web based GIS system is underway for Monitoring and Evaluation at various stages. All the details relating to Watershed Activities would be available on website. This system is very useful to know the progress of the project at the click of the button. The higher officials would be able to monitor the progress and could generate the desired reports. This system would also help stakeholders to know the area of importance, already treated area/area to be treated. The system would serve an aiding tool to the planners and evaluators for judging the efficacy of the project.
Monitoring
Regular monitoring of the project will have to be carried out at each stage to monitor the progress of the Project. As per Common Guidelines, different streams of monitoring are proposed as under:
1. Internal monitoring by PIA 2. Progress monitoring 3. On line monitoring 4. Self monitoring by Community/Social Audit 5. Sustainability monitoring 6. Independent and external monitoring
Monitoring of watershed related activities will be carried out after completion of each phase. 0.9% amount of the project is earmarked under this component. Sub Watershed wise details are given below:

CHAPTER – XIV
EXPECTED OUTCOMES
194
14.1 EXPECTED OUTCOMES With the several interventions under IWMP project such as Livelhood support. Farm Production System, various types of activities relating to soil conservation measures, protection to field by contructing the structure etc., it is expected that these Watershed villages will gain a lot. This intervention will have multiple benefits available to communities in terms of employment, check in migration, improvement in water table, more area under agriculture and horticulture, check in soil loss and decrease in flood and drought incidences, improvement in crop yield, milk yield, check in degration of land etc. The benefits thus accrued would be short term and long term. With the judicious use of funds available under IWMP and with convergence from MNREGA, this project Jalandhar-V will prove to be very beneficial in improving socio-economic status of people residing in Project villages. The adoption of soil and water conservation package would minimize run off and soil loss, reduce damage by flash floods, protect land and infrastructure from bank erosion. In addition, ground water recharge would augment capacity of water sources and also make several drainage lines perennial. The investments made in water resources development would ease shortage of water both for domestic use and livestock and also make available water for supplemental irrigation. The introduction of improved production technologies would stabilize crop production, save crops from adverse impacts of droughts and raise income level of farmers. The increased fodder availability and animal health care, the milk production would increase. There would be increased cash flows from subsidiary occupations. The increased awareness, operations through SHGs and easy availability of finance would make the communities more vibrant and enterprising.
Crop yields would increase by 25-30%
Livestock (buffalo) number will increase by 20%
Milk production will improve by 20%
Run off and soil loss will be reduced by almost 5%
Water table would rise by 1 to 2 metres
Landless would get 25-30% more wage employment in the village
Threat of floods and soil erosion would be minimized.
Seasonal flow in torrents would be replaced by perennial flow this improving moisture regime and water availability.
Grazing in adjoining forest areas would be replaced by stall feeding.
Interest of farmers on micro-enterprises, food processing, value addition and markting would improve.

14.3 ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF WATERSHED DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Integrated watershed management approach including catchment treatment with soil and
water conservation measures like construction of staggered contour trenches, check dams,
debris basin, grade stabilizers in channel, vegetative measures and planting of trees and
grasses in Shivalik foot hill region not only prove effective in arresting sediment from
denuded hills and developing water resource but also gained ground on economic front. This
is exemplified through out come of economic evaluation of some of the water shed projects
implemented in the Shivalik region of north India. The results of economic evaluation of
some such projects are presented as follows:-
1. Economic Analysis of Relmajra Project
A participatory water shed development programme was taken up in village Rel majra in the
district Nawan shahar, where a 13.5 m high homogenous earth fill dam was constructed in
1992 to store 13.7 ham runoff water from the hills. This project proved to be economically
beneficial as B/C ratios for agriculture sector, animal husbandry sector and overall pooling all
project benefits worked out as 2.01, 1.2 and 1.58, respectively. Discount rate in the analysis
was assumed as 10% considering the project life as 30 years. (Environmental Impact
Assessment of participatory watershed management in Shivaliks-Rel majra ,JS Samra , Y
Agnihotri, SP Mittal ,RC Bansal, RK Aggarwal and RP Yadav, Bulletin# T-46/ C-10,
CSWCRTI RC, Chandigarh, Feb, 2002).
2. Economic analysis of various land use systems
The economic appraisal of various alternate land use systems developed under Rel majra
was made in which two storied systems of Kinnow + Bhabbar, on the basis of 1o year data
provided a B/C ratio of 1.37. Ber+Napier grass proved to be even more economical yielding
a B/C ratio of 3.37. Sole Aonla plantation gave a B/C ratio of 1.66. B/C ratio of raising poplar
with agriculture crops in the water shed was worked out as 2.0. (Economic appraisal of
alternative land use systems for degraded Shivaliks, Y Agnihotri, Indian Journal of Forestry,
Vol. 25(1), 2002,: 60-66)
3. Economic Analysis of Watershed Development Project Bunga
The Economic Analysis of Watershed Development Project in village Bunga of district
Ambala (now Panchkula) was under taken in 1984. The same proved to be economically
viable as B/C ratio was estimated to be 2.10 assuming a discount rate of 10% and project
life of 30 years. Main component of this water shed programme was development of water
resource for irrigation by raising an earthen dam. The crop and milk production improved
and project provided benefits to the landless. (Socio economic Evaluation of watershed
management project-A Case Study, Y Agnihotri, SP Mittal and Swarn Lata, Proceedings
Third IWRS National Symposium on Water Development and Management, IIT, Kanpur,
Feb2-4, 1990: 231-234).
4. Economic Viability of Watershed Management Programmes Sukhomajri and Nada
Villages
The watershed management programmes were implemented in Sukhomajri and Nada
watersheds in district Panchkula in 1976 and 1980. Main components of the programme
198
were, harvesting excess rain water from the hills, recycling the harvested rain water for crop
production, development of allied programmes like, animal husbandry, fish culture,
horticulture, pasture development etc. and above a8r [poiufdsa*-l encouraging people‟s
participation. The economic evaluation of the projects revealed them to be financially
profitable and viable as the B/C ratios were found as 1.39 and 1.24, respectively assuming a
project life of 30 years and discount rate of 10%. (Watershed Management-A Key to up lift
socioeconomic status in Shivalik Foot hill villages of India, Y Agnihotri & JS Samra, Indian
journal of Soil Conservation, Vol.42,1998: 176-181.
5. Economics of Watershed Management Programme of villages Behlada and Chatara
A watershed management programme was undertaken in villages Behlada and Chatara in
District Una (HP) in 1984 where main emphasis was laid on improved agricultural practices
only and irrigation water was not available. Cost of watershed development in 1984-85 was
5.13 lakh. Crop yield increased by 50% due to watershed interventions. Gross return worth
Rs 20 lakh was obtained during 1988-89 as against Rs 15 lakh during pre project period at
the same price level. Milk yield after the project intervention was also up by 77 %. Over all
benefit, cost ratio of the project was seen as 1.67.(Economics of water shed management
sans benefit from irrigation in Shivalik foot hill villages, Y Agnihotri, SP Mittal and Swarn Lata
Arya, J. of Soil and Water Conserv., Vol 34( No. 2,3 &4):114-120
6. Appraisal of waste land development project on integrated basis in villages
Aganpur-Bhagwasi
A project on waste land development on integrated basis in villages Aganpur-Bhagwasi of
district Patiala extending in 550ha land was taken up by the CSWCRTI,RC, Chandigarh in
1997-98. The project aimed at developing a model watershed to provide sufficient food,
fodder, fuel and employment on sustainable basis. Economic analysis of the project brought
out that B/C ratio for raising crops under irrigated area was 1.92 and under rain fed area was
1.30. For dairy sector B/C ratio was 1.76, for Poplar plantation it was 3.4 and for horticulture,
B/C ratio turned out to be 2.12. Over all benefit, cost ratio was how ever 1.72. ( A Report on
Participatory Water shed Management for Sustainable Development in Aganpur-Bhagwasi
Watershed, Patiala, Punjab, CSWCRTI,RC, Chandigarh,2004 )
7. Economic viability of watershed development project in village Johranpur
A watershed development programme was taken up in village Johranpur, District Solan (HP)
in Shivalik foot hill region in an area of 19.6ha under NATP during 2000-2004. Main
technological package was diversion of runoff water to renovated ponds which had become
defunct. Renovation was done also to create appropriate storage capacity. The harvested
water was used for limited supplemental irrigation to stabilize the production of rainfed crops
including fodder production.The project was implemented at a cost of Rs9.21lakh. Economic
appraisal of the project revealed an encouraging B/C ratio of 2.38, assuming a discount rate
of 10% and project life of 20 years. The results also indicated the Payback period as 7 years
and IRR of 28.6%. (Rain water harvesting and recycling technology for sustainable
production in small agriculture watersheds-Johranpur, RP Yadav, RK Aggarwal, SL
Arya,Pratap Singh, Ram Prasad Bhattacharyya, AK Tiwari and MK Yadav, Bulletin#T-50/C-
11, CSWRTI,RC, Chandigarh)
199
The results of projects similar to IWMP in Shivaliks clearly proved their economic viability
and social acceptability.
Break Even Analysis
An impact assessment of one of the first dams constructed by the project (Bharauli),
focusing on increased crop and milk yields, was carried out in 2004-05. This analysis
showed that all costs of construction and farmer investments were recovered by increased
crop and milk yield through year – round irrigation after only 3.5 years of the establishment
of the dam (Fig.). The economic life of the dam is expected to be at least 25 years.
Reduction in Runoff and soil loss
Due to afforestation, soil and water conservation
works and water harvesting, there is reduction in runoff
and soil loss from treated watersheds. This is indicated in
the figure given below where after the treatment where
has been drastic reduction in run off after the project.
