A Detailed Project Report for the Sapt-Kosi High Dam project and Sun Kosi diversion scheme is under preparation jointly with the cooperation of the Government of Nepal.
The central government has envisaged to make a comprehensive assessment of the feasibility of linking the rivers in the country starting with the southern rivers in a fully consultative manner. It would also explore the feasibility of linking sub-basins of rivers within the States, like Bihar.
Six intra-state link proposals have been identified in Bihar by the Bihar government, namely: Kohra-Chandravat, Burhi-Gandak-None-Baya-Ganga, Bagmati-Burhi-Gandak through Belwabhar, Kosi-Ganga, (v) Kosi-Mechi (Indian portion) and Karmanasha-Suara links in Bihar. The State Government of Bihar has commenced the study of these Intra-State links.
