New Delhi: Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project (ERCP) dispute has been settled, with Rajasthan CM Bhajan Lal Sharma and Madhya Pradesh CM Dr Mohan Yadav signing an MOU in the presence of Union Minister of Jal Shakti Gajendra Singh Shekhawat. The agreement, reached on Sunday, also paves way for the Parvati-Kalisindh-Chambal River Link Project, connecting Chambal, Parvati, and Kalisindh rivers to provide water to 26 districts in Rajasthan and MP.

CM Sharma said, “This resolves water distribution issues and ensures irrigation across 2.80 lakh hectares in 13 Rajasthan districts, benefiting industrial and forest areas.” The project addresses longstanding drinking water challenges. Jhalawar, Baran, Kota, Bundi, and other Rajasthan districts will find relief. It also aids Eastern Rajasthan and realises the late former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s dream of interlinking rivers.
