NVDA Narmada Valley Development Authority (NVDA), is an organization of Govt. of M.P. constituted for planning water resources development in Narmada basin and expeditious implementation of projects . NVDA was constituted vide notification No. 501-2-NVDA-XXVII-83 dtd 16-7-1985 was published in Madhya Pradesh Gazette dated 9 Aug' 1985.

NARMADA BASIN
Narmada is the fifth largest river in India and largest west flowing river of Indian peninsula originating from Maikala ranges at Amarkantak in Madhya Pradesh at an elevation of 900 m . It flows westwards over a length of 1,312 km before draining into the Gulf of Cambay, 50 km west of Bharuch city. The basin lies between east longitudes 72° 32 and 81° 45' and north latitudes 21° 20' and 23° 45'. Vindhya hills in the north, Satpura ranges in the south, Maikala ranges in the east and the Arabian sea in the west form the boundaries of the basin. The basin has an elongated shape almost like a thin ribbon with a maximum length of 953 km east to west and a maximum width of 234 km north to south. The first 1,077 km of the river flows in Madhya Pradesh and the next 35 km stretch of the river forms the boundary between the State of Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. Again for the next 39 km, it forms the boundary between Maharashtra and Gujarat. The last stretch of 161 km lies in Gujarat. Out of the total Catchment area of about 1 Lakh sq. km 87% lies in Madhya Pradesh, 2% in Maharashtra and 11% in Gujarat.
Narmada River is known as the "Life Line" of Madhya Pradesh. It originates in Amarkantak, District Shahdol and of its total length of 1312 up to Arabian Sea, it runs for about 1112 km in the State of Madhya Pradesh. 87% of Basin lies in Madhya Pradesh covering the Districts, Shahdol, Balaghat, Rajnandgaon, Mandla, Seoni, Dindori, Katni, Jabalpur, Damoh, Sagar, Narsinghpur, Chhindwara, Betul, Hoshangabad, Harda, Raisen, Sehore, Khandwa, Indore, Dewas , Khargone, Dhar, Jhabua, & Barwani.
The annual utilisable quantity of water of Narmada at Navagam, in Gujarat, was estimated to be 34.537 million cubic metre (MCM) 28 million acre feet, at 75% dependability by NWDT. On full development, the Narmada has a potential of irrigating over 6 million ha (15 million acres) of land along with a capacity to generate about 3,000 Mega Watt of hydro electric power.
Narmada Water Disputes Tribunal vide its award of December 1979 has fixed share of water of each state as under.-
| State | MAF |
|---|---|
| Madhya Pradesh | 18.25 |
| Gujarat | 9.00 |
| Rajasthan | 0.50 |
| Maharashtra | 0.25 |
| Total | 28.00 |
The allocation is proposed to be reviewed in the year 2025 and it may be reallocated in case States fail to utilize their share of water. Keeping in view the above situation the State Government is determined to develop use of 18.25 MAF of water by the year 2024-2025.
It is planned in the Master Plan (1972) to construct 29 major, 135 medium and over 3,000 minor projects to utilize the allocated water of 18.25 MAF of Madhya Pradesh. The Narmada Valley Development Department (NVDD) is entrusted with implementation of the major projects in the Narmada basin. The NVDD has constituted the multi-disciplinary Narmada Valley Development Authority (NVDA), in July 1985, dealing with, in all, 18 subjects of the line departments. The set up of NVDA at the head quarters is given in the chart. As development of irrigation under major projects requires a period of 5 to 6 years. it is planned to complete the 29 major projects by the year 2025 to provide irrigation to 14 lakh ha., using 11.36 MAF water. In addition, power generation of 3291 MW will also be possible.
