Development of National Waterways

Tags:

To promote Inland Water Transport in the country 111 waterways (including 5 existing and 106 new) have been declared as National Waterways (NWs) under the National Waterways Act, 2016 which came into effect from 12th April, 2016.  Based on the outcome of techno-economic feasibility and Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) of NWs, 25 NWs have been found viable by the Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) for cargo/ passenger movement.    The list of the 25 NWs is given below

Advantage of the Inland waterways 

●     Bulk cargo like coal, fly-ash and iron ore are found economical & cost-effective for movement through Inland Water Transport (IWT) which is an environmentally friendly and less pollutant mode of transport than Rail & Road.  The cargo through Inland Ship is transported in barges and there is no direct contact of the cargo with water and therefore no ecological impacts. 

Role of Inland Waterways Authority of India 

Operation of Ferries is a State subject.  Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) established through IWAI Act, 1985 for the regulation and development of National Waterways for purposes of shipping and navigation has notified (with the prior approval of the Central Govt.)  following regulations for safety considerations-

(i)  Prevention of Collision on National Waterways Regulations, 2002 and

(ii) National waterway, Safety of Navigation and Shipping Regulations, 2002
