India being an agrarian state, in the agriculture production and thus improving the economy of the farmers and the states, irrigation and irrigation projects played major role for hundreds of years.
There are large numbers of books that present the theoretical aspects but there are no books in practical perspective. The present book looked in to the practical aspects pertaining to irrigation and irrigation projects.
To achieve the sustainable development in irrigation and irrigation projects, the major hurdles are appointment of tribunals and settling the disputes.
These play vital role in projects implementation and making them cost effective.
The book discussed some of the basic problems in irrigation and irrigation projects in India in general and in Andhra Pradesh in specific. These issues are discussed with reference to Krishna River Water Disputes Tribunal and Polavaram project disputes on River Godavari.
Also discussed, the issues related to interlinking of rivers in addition to several other issues including climate change & pollution aspects.
Contents:1: Introduction, 2: Water Resources Availability, 3: Inter-state Irrigation Projects – Role of Tribunals, 4: Inter-state Irrigation Projects – Disputes, 5: Future of Water Resources in India.
About the Author:
Dr. Sazzala Jeevananda Reddy is an Agrometeorologist got post-graduation in Geophysics & Applied Statistics with the advanced training in Meteorology & Oceanography and numerical weather prediction. Dr. Reddy got his Ph.D. in Agricultural Meteorology from the “The Australian National University”, Canberra. Dr. Reddy has a wide experience in the field of Agrometeorology and Agroclimatology while working in several National and International institutions/organizations within and outside India. Dr. Reddy served Food and Agriculture Organization [FAO] as Expert & World Meteorological Organization [WMO] as Chief Technical Advisor.

In this direction Dr. Reddy brought out several books to educate World Community.The few important books contributed by Dr. Reddy are:
Reddy, S.J., 1993: ‘Agroclimatic/Agrometeorological Techniques: As applicable to Dry-land Agriculture in developing countries’.
