Nar-Par-Tapi river linking project ensuring 52 tmcft for region gets Cabinet nod.
Stating that no water from the Konkan region intended for Marathwada is going to Gujarat, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday said his government is committed to giving the arid region 52 thousand million cubic feet (tmcft) of water through the Nar-Par-Tapi river linking project.
“We are not giving even a single drop of water to Gujarat… our government is determined to save the water that drains from the Konkan region into the sea and bring it to Marathwada. Five rivers are to be linked for this project for which our Cabinet has already given its approval,” he told reporters during the course of the BJP’s Mahajanadesh Yatra in Jalna district.
