Abstract

The Banas catchment has more or less similar characteristics as the Banganga catchment. However, the status of the villages in the catchment is very poor because of no involvement of government and non-government organizations (NGO). In this catchment of the Yamuna river basin immediate attention is requisite and initiatives should be taken considering the IWRM approach.
