Since March 1997, NWDA works of the
geo-technical investigation comprising of field investigations and
Laboratory tests for characterisation of foundations of structures for
preparation of Manos-Sankos-Teesta-Ganga (MSTG) link Canal
-
NWDA had prepared pre-feasibility report
of MSTG Link for transferring the surplus flows of Manas and Sankosh rivers,
tributaries of Brahmaputra River and intermediate rivers up to Teesta into
the river Ganga upstream of Farakka
-
Part of this surplus water is proposed
for augmentation of river Ganga to meet the lean water requirement of
Calcutta Port
-
At present the above link project is
under Survey and Investigation stage for preparation of feasibility report,
which is programmed to be completed by the year 2003
