> “Where is all of this excess water?” Raghu Chundawat, a leading Indian conservationist, asks me sourly in nearby Panna National Park, a sanctuary for endangered tigers. “The government won’t share its flow data. I don’t think even they know what the impacts will be.”
In a quick Google search I was able to find this - http://www.mppcb.nic.in/pdf/594-English.pdf http://www.mppcb.nic.in/pdf/594-English.pdf. I'm not an expert on this topic, but seems like there is some amount of flow data.
This is just one example of what's wrong with the article. It feels more like a travel blog than a well researched article.
- hugh-avherald 6y agoThat link (from 8 years ago) doesn't contradict the claim that the government won't share its flow data and doesn't know the what the impacts will be.
- wobbly_bush 6y agoCan you elaborate on how the report doesn't answer those questions? Raghu Chundawat is asking the question about the Ken-Betwa project and this report is exactly about that project. The fact that the report was out 8 years ago and Raghu Chundawat still says there is no data is surprising.
