Abstract

The physical problem resulting in poor agricultural and economic growth in Bihar highlights the necessity for the effective and integrated development and optimal utilization of Bihar's water resources. There was only a feeble thrust until now in this direction. Bihar state suffers from both the occurrence of floods and the incidence of drought. This paradoxical syndrome has been analyzed regionwise and compared to the all-India situation. Some possible resolution aspects have also been discussed. The multidimensional complexity of the problem is a challenge to water-resource professionals, academicians, and researchers to apply their knowledge, skill, and experience to find a viable package of solutions for the economic emancipation of this economically most backward state of India.
