5. COMPUTATION OF GROUND WATER RESOURCES IN MADHYA

PRADESH

5.1 Salient features of the dynamic ground water resource assessments Year of

assessment –

Estimation of ground water resources has been carried out based on the

methodology recommended by the Ground Water Estimation Committee (GEC –1997)

and on advice of R&D committee. The base year for the assessment of ground water

resources is 2009-10 and data of rainfall, ground water structures, canal, tanks ponds etc.

are collected of five years from 2006 to 2010. The water level data are used from 2001to

2011.

Assessment Unit The administrative block has been considered as a unit of assessment. The unit is

further divided into sub-unit i.e. Command and Non-Command. The ground water

resources have been computed for all 313 blocks of the State.

5.2 Sub-Unit-Wise Method Adopted for Computing Rainfall Recharge During

Monsoon Season

The following sub-units are taken into account for the computation of various

figures in the methodology and have been considered as given below: -

(a) Hilly Area

Area having more than 20% slope has been excluded for ground water recharge

computation.

(b) Poor Ground Water Quality Area

There is no clear cut demarcated area of poor quality in the State for computation

of ground water resources. Apart from this, statistical data of ground water structure is

also not available. Hence this unit has not been considered for resource estimation.

(c) Command and Non-Command Area

In the methodology, it is recommended that dynamic ground water resources

estimation should be carried out for command area and non command area separately.

This has been followed. For computation of ground water resources of command area

only medium and major command areas have been considered so that area falling under

this category be clearly identified on the map and other isolated pockets are omitted. By

doing so it will be very clear in the block map, area showing under various categories

(semi critical and over exploited) are in continuation and same may be used for further

works etc.

Block-wise total geographical areas, hilly area, command area, non command area

and area worthy for ground recharge are given in Annexure IIIA-2 whereas district-wise

geographical areas, hilly area, command area, non command area and area worthy for

ground recharge are shown in Table-5

5.3 Ground Water Resources of Madhya Pradesh

Groundwater resources of Madhya Pradesh State have been computed according to

Methodology and norms described in Chapter-3. The block wise details have been

provided in Annexure (III A to III F). The Salient features of the computations are given

below.

5.3.1 Recharge from Rainfall

Recharge from rainfall has been computed separately for monsoon and non-

monsoon periods as well as for command and non-command areas. Recharge from

rainfall is mainly a function of geographical area of the district, normal monsoon rainfall

and lithology of the area.

The recharge from rainfall during monsoon season has been computed using mainly

Water Level Fluctuation Method, whereas recharge from rainfall during non-monsoon

period has been computed using Rainfall Infiltration Factor Method. Details of the block-

wise monsoon rainfall recharge and non-monsoon rainfall recharge have been given in

Annexure III D. District-wise recharge from rainfall is given in Table-6 by adding up

block wise figures of the respective districts. Non-monsoon rainfall recharge is taken into

account in Annupur, Balaghat Betul Chhindwara Dindori Mandla Rewa Satna Seoni

Shahdol Sidhi and Umaria districts where non monsoon rainfall is more than 10% of the

total annual rainfall.

Total recharge from rainfall in the State is of the order of 29, 00,686 ham,

(29.01bcm) with Hoshangabad district having the highest recharge of 1,42,757 ham and

Alirajpur district has minimum recharge of the order of 19, 494 ham .

5.3.2 Recharge from Other Sources

Total Recharge to ground water has several components, rainfall being the major

one. The other component include seepage from canals, return flow from surface water

irrigation, return flow from ground water irrigation, seepage from Tanks and Ponds etc.

for command area. For non–command area seepage from canals and return flow from

surface water irrigation is not applicable. Block wise recharge from other sources has

been given in Annexure-III D. District- wise recharge from other sources is given Table-6

Component of recharge from other sources is highest in Hoshangabad district

(71,080ham) followed by Dhar district (23,014 ham) and Morena district (21,419 ham)

where maximum canal irrigation facility is available. Lowest value of recharge from other

source is recorded in Annupur (355 ham) and Dindori (488 ham) being tribal districts

where use of ground water as well surface water for irrigation purpose is very low. Total

recharge from rainfall is 29, 00,686 ham, (29.01 bcm) whereas from other sources is

6,03,376 ham (6.03 bcm ). The recharge from other sources show that the return flow

from ground water irrigation accounts for 56%, return flows from surface water irrigation

accounts for 21 %, recharge from Tanks and Ponds accounts for 9 % and seepage from

canals accounts for 19 %, of the total recharge from other sources.

5.3.3 Recharge from All Sources

Total replenishable ground water resources including rainfall recharge and recharge

from other sources have been computed on block- wise and by adding up block wise

29

figures of the respective districts which is presented in Annexure III D and Table-6

respectively. Total annual recharge from all sources in the State is of the order of

35,04,063 ham (35.04 bcm), with Hoshangabad district having the highest recharge of

2,13,837 ham and Alirajpur district has minimum recharge of the order of 21,648 ham. A

thematic map showing annual replenishable ground water resources (m/unit area) is

prepared (Figure-5). The thematic map shows that annual replenishable ground water

resources in metre per unit area is maximum at Hoshangabad (0.38 m/ area) followed by

Narsinghpur (0.26 m/ area). In 11 districts, the annual replenishable ground water

resources in the state is found between 0.07 to 0.09 m/ area, whereas in 29 districts,

between 0.10 to 0.15 m/ area and 8 district have 0.16-0.19 m/unit area. The average

annual replenishable ground water resources of the State is 0.13 m/ area Table- 6 District- wise dynamic ground water resource of Madhya Pradesh.

5.3.4 Unaccounted Natural Discharge and Net Ground Water Availability

The total annual ground water recharge of the area is the sum of monsoon and

non-monsoon recharge. An allowance of 5% of total annual ground water recharge has

been kept for natural discharge in the non-monsoon season because WLF method is

employed to compute rainfall recharge during monsoon season. The balance ground water

available accounts for existing net ground water availability for various uses and potential

for future development. Block wise unaccounted natural discharge and net ground water

availability is given in Annexure-III D whereas district wise unaccounted natural

discharge and net ground water availability is given in Table -6 . Total unaccounted

natural discharge in the State is of the order of 1,75,203 ham (1.75 bcm), with

Hoshangabad district having the highest discharge of 10,692 ham and Alirajpur with

lowest of 1,082ham. The net ground water availability in the state is 33,28,860 ham

(33.29 bcm) with Hoshangabad district having the highest net ground water availability of

2,03,145 ham and Alirajpur with lowest of 20,565 ham.

5.3.5 Ground Water Draft for Various Uses

Ground water draft for various uses has been calculated separately for command

and non-command areas. Details of block-wise groundwater draft for various uses are

given in Annexure – III D. District-wise ground water draft figures are also compiled and

given in Table – 7

Total draft of ground water for all uses in state is calculated as 18,83,352 ham

(18.83 bcm). From the Table-7, it is seen that maximum ground water drawl for all uses

is 96,822 ham in Shajapur district and minimum draft of ground water for all uses is 2,180

ham in Annupur district at eastern part of Madhya Pradesh. Comparison of ground water

draft for various uses reveals that draft for irrigation accounts for more than 93% of total

ground water draft, where as draft for domestic & industrial supply accounts for meager

7% of the total ground water draft in the state.

5.3.6 Stage of Ground Water Development and Categorization of Blocks

The distributions of various categorized blocks are shown in the Figure-6. The

entire command areas of different blocks are falling under safe category. Non command

areas of 67 blocks are falling in semi-critical category, 4 blocks of in critical category,

and 24 blocks of the state are categorized as over-exploited. List of semi-critical, critical

and over-exploited area is given in Table-8 and in annexure III E and III F. Almost all

over-exploited blocks are falling in western part of Madhya Pradesh, which is known as

“MALWA AREA” where ground water draft has increased many folds during past

decades. District wise analysis of data of ground water availability and annual ground

water drafts indicate that two districts namely Indore and Ratlam are falling under “Over-

Exploited” Category where stage of ground water development is more than 100% as a

whole. The stage of development of the State is 57 %. Table-8 List of Semi-Critical, Critical and Over Exploited Blocks in Madhya Pradesh.

5.3.7 Ground Water Available for Future Irrigation and Irrigations Potential

Block-wise balance ground water for future irrigation potential is determined for all

313 blocks of Madhya Pradesh by deducting ground water draft for irrigation and

allocation for next 25 years (upto year 2035) for drinking and industrial water supply

from net ground water availability. The ground water available for future irrigation is

divided by an average of depth of irrigation (), considering of 0.40 m for Madhya

Pradesh, which ultimately gives irrigation potentials.

Block-wise, data of irrigation potential is given in Annexure-III D and district wise

irrigation potential is shown in Table-9. From Table-9, it is seen that in Madhya Pradesh

13,46,522 ham (13.47 bcm) ground water is estimated to be available for future

irrigation, which can irrigate additional area of 33,66,305 hectare. Two districts namely

Indore and Ratlam, as whole fall under “Over Exploited” Category during the assessment

year where balance of ground water is estimated as nil for future irrigation, while Ujjain

will have minimum irrigation potential after as it is very close to 100% development

projecting the domestic and industrial draft for the year 2035.

5.4 Spatial Variation of the Ground Water Recharge, Development Scenario and

Comparison with Base Year 2008/09

For comparison of ground water resources data computed using GEC ’97 analysis

of district wise figures is made for year 2008/09 & 2010/11, which is given in Table-10.

Total recharge from rainfall in the State is of the order of 29, 00,686 ham,

(29.01bcm) with Hoshangabad district having the highest recharge of 1,42,757 ham and

Alirajpur district has minimum recharge of the order of 19, 494 ham . Component of

recharge from other sources is highest in Hoshangabad district (71,080ham) followed by

Dhar district (23,014 ham) and Morena district (21,419 ham) where maximum canal

irrigation facility is available. Lowest value of recharge from other source is recorded in

Annupur (355 ham) and Dindori (488 ham) being tribal districts where use of ground

water as well surface water for irrigation purpose is very low. Total recharge from

rainfall is 29, 00,686 ham, (29.01 bcm) whereas from other sources is 6,03,376 ham (6.03

bcm ). Total annual recharge from all sources in the State is of the order of 35,04,063 ham

(35.04 bcm), with Hoshangabad district having the highest recharge of 2,13,837 ham and

Alirajpur district has minimum recharge of the order of 21,648 ham. The annual

replenishable ground water resources in metre per unit area is maximum at Hoshangabad

(0.38 m/ area) followed by Narsinghpur (0.26 m/ area). In 11 districts, the annual

replenishable ground water resources in the state is found between 0.07 to 0.09 m/ area,

whereas in 29 districts, between 0.10 to 0.15 m/ area and 8 district have 0.16-0.19 m/unit

area. The average annual replenishable ground water resources of the State is 0.13 m/ area

Total unaccounted natural discharge in the State is of the order of 1,75,203 ham

(1.75 bcm), with Hoshangabad district having the highest discharge of 10,692 ham and

39

Alirajpur with lowest of 1,082ham. The net ground water availability in the state is

33,28,860 ham (33.29 bcm) with Hoshangabad district having the highest net ground

water availability of 2,03,145 ham and Alirajpur with lowest of 20,565 ham.

Total draft of ground water for all uses in state is calculated as 18,83,352 ham

(18.83 bcm). From the Table-7, it is seen that maximum ground water drawl for all uses

is 96,822 ham in Shajapur district and minimum draft of ground water for all uses is 2,180

ham in Annupur district at eastern part of Madhya Pradesh. Comparison of ground water

draft for various uses reveals that draft for irrigation accounts for more than 93% of total

ground water draft, where as draft for domestic & industrial supply accounts for meager

7% of the total ground water draft in the state.

The entire command areas of different blocks are falling under safe category. Non

command areas of 67 blocks are falling in semi-critical category, 4 blocks in critical

category, and 24 blocks of the state are categorized as over-exploited. Almost all over-

exploited blocks are falling in western part of Madhya Pradesh, which is known as

“MALWA AREA” where ground water draft has increased many folds during past

decades. District wise analysis of data of ground water availability and annual ground

water drafts indicate that two districts namely Indore and Ratlam are falling under “Over-

Exploited” Category where stage of ground water development is more than 100% as a

whole. The stage of development of the State is 57 %.

The net ground water availability in the state computed in 2008/09 was 32, 24,948 ham

which is lower as compared to current data of 33, 28,860 ham. In general, the reasons for

changes are attributed to increase in recharge because of localized improvement in

rainfall pattern, increased in activity on rainwater harvesting and water conservation

measures etc. In addition, management practices like efficient water use practices with

community participation, increased awareness etc. also helped in improving water use

efficiency of ground water resources in stressed areas. In majority of the cases, it is the

combination of the above mentioned reasons which have brought in the changes in

category.

Though total draft of ground water for all uses in state is increased by 4.7 %

whereas stage of ground water development has reached to 57 % as compared to 57 in

assessment year 2008/09 with increment of 1.0 %. In fact, more variations are observed

at assessment unit level.

In the assessment year-2008/09, 61 blocks falling in semi-critical category has

increased to 67 in 201011whereas blocks under critical and over-exploited category

remain same as 4 and 24 respectively in both assessments years. Seven new blocks

namely Berasia of Bhopal district, Betul of Betul district, Guna of Guna district, Shahpura

of Jabalpur district, Porsa of Morena district, Sirmour of Rewa district and Sidhi of Sidhi

District have been upgraded from safe to Semi critical. Rehli block of Sagar district has

been downgraded into safe category. The status of block under critical and over exploited

remain same as compared to the assessment year 2008/09. Likewise two districts namely

Indore and Ratlam, as whole falling under “Over Exploited” Category with ground water

development of more than 100% during the assessment year 2008/09 are also unchanged.

The status of changing the category from semi critical to safe and reduction of ground

water stage of development in blocks and districts are due to improving of the ground

water condition by recharge from other resources, decrease in unit draft of ground

structures and receiving good normal rainfall etc.

The ground water resources of the individual block /assessment unit show wide

variation in the resource available and stage of ground water development. In Madhya

40

Pradesh, the ground water development concentrates mainly in the western (Malwa

Region), Central (Narsinghpur districts), Budelkhand Region and part of Bagkhelkhand

Region of the State. The other part of the state has very low development of ground

water. Sixteen districts in the state have stage of development between 60%. to 90 %,

whereas three district have stage of ground water development 90 to 100 %. The Indore

and Ratlam districts reached at highest ground water development of 120. % and 126.0%

respectively and Anuppur with 7 % of development is lowest developed district in state.

The overall development of Madhya Pradesh in ground water point of view is 57 %,

which is moderate. District-wise ground water resource scenario is described below.
