Sama: Responding to a media report on desilting of D-10 and D-11 Canals, the concerned authorities have clarified that desilting of the D-10 canal has been completed up to a functional length of 7,400 meters. However, the section from RD 7,400 meters to RD 11,000 meters has not been desilted because this portion of the canal has been non-functional for an extended period. Given its non-operational status, resources have been allocated to more immediate and functional requirements to ensure efficient use of available funds and labor.
Clarifying further, they said that desilting of the D-11 canal has been successfully carried out. Irrigation facilities are being provided to farmers based on the availability of water, ensuring that their agricultural needs are met. Any accumulated silt and jungle growth during the regulation period will be promptly removed to maintain the flow of water and ensure continuous irrigation.
The administration is committed to maintaining and improving irrigation infrastructure to support local agriculture. The focus remains on optimizing resource allocation to ensure maximum benefit to the farmers.
