Nature is controlled by God but men tries to alter it according to their needs. Rivers are fed by basins-contributed by surface and Ground water. Management at basin level is essential to save, conserve and sustain the river flows. Biodiversity Conservation is necessary to maintain the Healthy Basins and Environmental Flows.
