Interlinking of rivers: general benefits (1) Maintain nee of minimum river water flow in deficit per Peripheral rivers link linking with watershed (2) Agricultural productivity for newer regions, reduces drought famine acretion by Betwa river in Bundelkhand region (3) Establishing urban cities, growth of economy near rivers (4) Energy security by setup of check dams - Kuseo elastic power, etc in both regions equally by Varanadhya river (5) Reduces use of floods as water capacity distributed among two (6) Improves soil quality in deficit region (7) Spread of marine Biodiversity in both region (8) Inland water transport potential improves (9) Bay connectivity and better blue carbon potential (10) Reduces ext migration of people from deficit region. Raises issues (11) Socio-economic issues (12) Migrations of people from one region to anther in both - over population helps rivers (13) Overuse in agriculture -> ground water decline & pollution, eutrophication due to agro runoff (14) Inter-state conflict -> over usage of water distinction (15) Tribal impact as lesser water availability conflict with other river plains tribes (16) Water is both state & concurrent to comes in federals Environmental concerns (17) Degradation of forests due to interfere in project by Kurnia National love destruction headed
