The national river linking project Is a long-term project initiated in order to ensure equal water distribution throughout India. The river originating in the north eastern Himalayan ranges like the Ganges and Brahmaputra is known to cause floods and then end up draining ample amount of water into the bay of Bengal while some of the northern and southern rivers like beas , saraswati, kaveri is known to have little or no water especially during summer. This project aims at linking these rivers and thus mitigating the flooding of the eastern part of ganga basin and rotatiThe national river linking project Is a long-term project initiated in order to ensure equal water distribution throughout India.

This project on successful implementation is said to be gigantic water grid that south Asia has never witnessed in the history of its water development. Also, will be one of the biggest interbasin water transfer projects in the world.
The Strategic Analysis of India’s National River Linking Project is an undertaking of the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) under the aegis of the Challenge Program on Water and Food (CPWF).
However, the major concern is the colossal mount of funding this project will require.
