The Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project (ERCP) aims to provide a sustainable water supply for irrigation and drinking needs in eastern Rajasthan. Spanning approximately 1,000 kilometers, the project will utilize the waters of the Chambal River and its tributaries to create a canal network that benefits regions facing chronic water scarcity. The initiative seeks to enhance agricultural productivity, improve livelihoods, and address regional disparities in water availability. With an estimated cost of around ₹37,000 crore, the ERCP is a significant step toward sustainable water management and rural development in Rajasthan, fostering economic growth and resilience in the area.
