1.1 Objective
1.2 Data Adequacy, Data Gap, Data Availability
1.0 Location :
The Dewas district lies in the central part of the state and covers an area of 7020.84 sq
km. It lies between North latitude 22o17’00” & 23o20’00” and east longitude 75o50’00” &
77o10’00”, falling in Survey of India topo sheet Nos 46M, 46N, 55A, 55B & 55F. The Tropic of
Cancer passes through the district near Nemawar village south of Khategaon town. Dewas lies
north-east of Indore, south-east of Ujjain and southwest of Shajapur. The city is located on the
level plains of the Malwa plateau; to the south, the land rises gently to the Vindhya Range,
which is the source of the Chambal and Kali Sindh rivers.
The district is divided into six Tehsils and six development Blocks. There are 1061
villages and 11 towns in the district.

One of the important aspect of the aquifer mapping programme was the synthesis of
the large volume of data already collected during specific studies carried out by Central Ground
Water Board and various Government organizations with a new data set generated that broadly
describe an aquifer system. The data were assembled, analysed, examined, synthesized and
interpreted from available sources. These sources were predominantly noncomputerized data,
which was converted into computer based GIS data sets. On the basis of available data, Data
Gaps were identified.
2. Data Generation:
There was also a strong need for generating additional data to fill the data gaps to
achieve the task of aquifer mapping.

3. Previous studies:
Prior to this study, the groundwater hydrogeology has been studied only in separate
parts with many areas left untouched. As a result, there was no hydrogeologic framework
developed so as to understand the regional effects of groundwater development in the area .
4. Preparation of Plan;
Preparation of Block wise ground water management plan of the Dewas district that will
guide the planers to manage the ground water resources in judicious manner and improve the
ground water scenario of the district.
The climate of Dewas district is semi- tropical, characterised by hot summer and well
distributed rainfall during the south west monsoon season. January is the coldest month with
the temperature falling as low as 2o - 3oC. The period from March to first week of June is the
summer season. May is the hottest month when the temperature may go upto 45 oC.
The Dewas plateau extends over the north-western part of Sonkatch block and western
part of Dewas block. This division is a part of the Malwa plateau with higher elevation in the
north and plain land topography in the south. Chhoti Kali Sind and Kshipra rivers drain this
region. Dewas town is situated on this plateau. The maximum elevation is 700 m amsl, north of
Dewas town. A conical hill housing the shrine of Goddess Chamunda is located in Dewas town.
The Kali Sindh Basin is situated in the northeastern part of the district in a north-south
column covering Tonk Khurd and part of Sonkautch blocks. The Kali Sindh river flowing in the
centre forms its drainage system. This is the most fertile tract of the district.
3
The Vindhyan Hill Range passes through the middle of the district in an east-west
direction forming a narrow strip. Kshipra and Kali Sindh rivers originate from north of this
range, while the tributaries of the Narmada originatefrom south of it.
Fig:2 Physiography
The maximum elevation is 758 m amsl at Bhainsore and minimum is 456 m amsl near
village Palasi, both in Bagli Block.
Middle Narmada valley division falls in the Malwa plateau and covers the southeastern
part of the district. It covers the Khategaon, Kannod and southern part of Bagli blocks. The
Narmada river flowing east-west forms the southern boundary of this division, as well as, of the
district. The division is covered by extensive forests. It is a low lying area with a maximum
elevation of 405 m amsl near village Serali in Kannod block and minimum 200 m amsl near
village Kotmir in Bagli Block.
1.4 Drainage:
The district falls under two major drainage basins - the Ganga in the north and the
Narmada in the south. The rivers are rivers of antiquity. They have broad, flat, shallow valleys
4
with low imperceptible gradients, because their channels have reached the base level of
erosion. Vertical erosion has ceased and lateral erosion is taking place.

CHAPTER-II
DATA COLLECTION AND GENERATION
Archaean:
These rocks are basically hard and compact with no primary porosity. Ground water
occurs in these in the secondary porosity created by weathering, jointing and fracturing. The
intensity and depth of weathering and the frequency of joints and fractures control the ground
water potential. These formations form poor to moderate aquifers. The depth of weathered
mantle varies from a thin film to about 15m in topographic lows. The joints and fractures close
down below 25 to 30 m. Ground water occur under water table conditions. These rocks mostly
support dug wells with a few tube wells at some places. The tube wells yield 1-2 lps for
considerable draw downs. The dug wells range in depths between 5 - 15 m and 2- 8 m in
diameter. Open wells yield about 8 lps on an average for about 2 - 3 hours of pumping.
Bijawar:
These rocks are impervious and devoid of joints and fractures. The weathering in these
rocks is limited to the upper surface only between 10 to 25 m. Ground water occurs in the
weathered portions under water table conditions with limited potential. Dug wells are generally
constructed with depths between 8 - 16 m and diameters of the order of 3 - 8 m. The open
wells yield about 1 lps or less.
Vindhyan:
The Vindhyan sandstones have primary porosity, but this depends on the degree of
compaction. It could vary from impervious to as high as 30%. Hence again ground water
availability is controlled by secondary porosity generated by weathering, jointing and fracturing.
Lineaments and their intersections are holders of ground water, which occurs under water
table conditions. The open wells may yield about 1lps or less. Bagh Beds: These form
unconfined aquifers when the sandstone and conglomerate are rendered permeable due to
secondary porosity. But as these formations occupy a very small area in the district they are not
significant.
Deccan Trap:
These form the most important aquifers due to the large aerial extent in the district. The
district is covered by a large number of basaltic lava flows. The weathered, jointed, fractured or
vesicular unit of each flow forms moderately potential aquifers. The zeolitic basalt when
weathered also forms potential aquifers. The Red Bole is unproductive but forms a confining
layer and also indicates the presence of a productive horizon below. Dug wells in this formation
range in depth from 4 - 22 m having diameters between 2 - 11m. Ground water occurs mainly
under water table conditions.
11
The discharges vary from 13 - 29 m3/hr for small draw down, less than 1.7m. The specific
capacity ranges from 26 - 170 lpm/m of draw down. It is high in highly weathered basalt, widely
variable in weathered basalt and low in jointed massive basalt. The yields are mostly upto 5 lps,
being higher, 10 – 12 lps in some cases; the yields are higher in Khategaon block. In multiple
flow areas ground water is also found under semi confined to confined conditions sustaining
tube wells
Alluvium:
The alluvium forms good aquifers wherever sufficiently thick. But the occurrence of
alluvium in the district is limited and thickness is only between 10 - 25 m. Ground water occurs
under water table conditions.
Ground water levels form a very important parameter of the ground water system, as
these are its physical reflection. The groundwater balance expresses itself in the change in
water levels; hence a continuous record is important and useful. CGWB has 16 National
12
Hydrograph Stations (NHS) and 11 Peizometers in Dewas district. Due to large-scale ground
water development the dug wells are drying up.
Pre-monsoon (May 2015)
Depth to water level during pre-monsoon, 2015r ranged between 2.90m bgl at Pipri and
24.47m bgl at Bhonrasa. Water levels, in general fall between 5 - 20 m bgl. Shallow water levels
of less than 5 m bgl occur in a patch in the south-western part of the district falling in Bagli and
Kannod blocks. Deeper water levels, more than 20 m occur in Sonkach, Tonk Khurd and Dewas
blocks. In Dewas, Sonkach and Tonk khurd blocks wells are fast drying up perhaps due to higher
ground water development.During May 2015, pre-monsoon the depth to water level in Dewas
districta as shown in Fig 3

Fig 5. Depth to Water Level (Post-monsoon)
Major part of the district shows seasonal fluctuation more than 4 m and in small parts of
block Dewas,Bagli, Kannod and Khategaon shows fluctuation less than 2m and in between 2-4m
as shown in Fig 6.

2.4 Ground Water Quality:
The electrical conductivity (EC) is a measure of total dissolved solids and hence of
salinity. Ground water is in general fresh in the district, EC being below 2000 µ S /cm at 25oC
except at Bhesuni village where EC is 2930 µ S /cm at 25oC. The EC is below 1000 µ S /cm in
large parts of Khategaon and Kannod blocks and patches in the remaining blocks. The EC is
higher 1000 - 1500 µ S /cm in four blocks and patches in Khategaon and Kannod blocks. EC
between 1500 - 2000 µ S /cm occurs around Dewas, Matmor, Pipri and Kanthaphor. The data
shows that the EC of deeper ground water varies from 621 - 4007 µ S /cm at 25oC. However, it
is on the higher side of the range, being above 2000 µ S/cm in 55% samples in Dewas, Sonkatch
and Tonk Khurd blocks.
Fluoride is high in 10% samples. Use of phosphatic fertilizers and bird droppings might
be contributing to fluoride concentration in ground water. Low fluoride concentration is also a
health hazard. A minimum of 0.6 mg/l of fluoride should be present in ground water. However,
in 52% samples the fluoride concentration is too low. Hence, it may be said that fluoride
problem, either way, occurs in a large area represented by 62% samples.
Nitrate pollution in ground water of Dewas district occurs around major towns Dewas,
Sonkatch, Bagli, Kanthaphor and Satwas, besides Bhesuni and Pipri. It also occurs at deeper
levels in some areas of Dewas block.. Ground water quality of Dewas District is given in Table
No6

3-D interpretation of lithologs reveals that shallower and deeper weathered /fractured basalt is
separated by red bole and massive basalt in the district. Water levels are observed at different
depth of shallower as well as deeper fractured formation. The deeper fracture rechargesfrom
the leaky upper formations also.The Table No 7.shows that shallow Piezometer/ Dug wells and
deeper Piezometer water level.

CHAPTER-IV
GROUND WATER RESOURCES
The dynamic ground water resources of the Madhya Pradesh State assessed jointly by
the CGWB and State Ground Water Departments under the supervision of the State level
Committees. The base year of computation of the resources is 2012-13.
The dynamic ground water resources are also known as Annual Replenishable Ground
Water Resources since it gets replenished/ recharged every year. The Annual Replenishable
Ground Water Resource for the Dewas Districthas been assessed as 10985.35 ham. The major
source of ground water recharge is the monsoon rainfall. Block -wise Ground Water Resources
of Dewas District as on March, 2013 is given in Table No 8 and the presents the over-all
scenario of ground water resource utilization and availability of the District. The contribution
from other sources such as canal seepage , return flow from irrigation, seepage from water
bodies etc in Annual Replenishable Ground Water Resource is more than of 33% in the states.
The assessment of ground water draft is carried out based on the Minor Irrigation
Census data and sample surveys carried out by the State Ground Water Departments. The
Annual Ground Water Draft of the entire district for 2012-13 has been estimated as 8055.12
ham. Agriculture sector remained the predominant consumer of ground water resources.
About 80 % of total annual ground water draft i.e. 678 mcm is for irrigation use. Only 127 mcm
is for Domestic & Industrial use which is about 20% of the total draft. An analysis of ground
water draft figures indicates that in the district 85.26% is stage of ground water development.
The status of ground water development is very high in the two blocks i.e Dewas and
Sonkutch where the Stage of Ground Water Development is more than 100%, which implies
that in the block the annual ground water consumption is more than annual ground water
recharge. the stage of ground water development is 70% and above. In rest of the block the
stage of ground water development is below 70%. The ground water development activities
have increased generally in the areas where future scope for ground water development
existed. This has resulted in increase in stage of ground water development . List of
categorization of Blocks / Districts is given in Table No 8.

CHAPTER-V
GROUND WATER RELATED ISSUES
In last two decade Dewas district has shown tremendous growth in Industry as well as
in Agriculture sector , resultant is pressure came on ground water utilization ,Groundwater is
the only source of irrigation in 80 % of the area except in the Southern part where canal
irrigation exists. Farmers solely depend on groundwater for irrigation. Every year number and
depth of bore wells are increasing. The yield of the dug wells in shallow aquifer (0-30 mbgl) is I
reduced due to over development of deep fractured aquifer by bore wells. The phreatic aquifer
is recharged during monsoon and the dug wells sustains for 3 to 4 months only The dug wells
sustain only for 2 to 3 hours of pumping with a drawdown of 2 to 5 m. Decline in groundwater
level is observed 0.3 to 0.40 m/yr in Sonkutch Block and .0.20 to 0.40 m/yr in Dewas Block. The
saturated thickness of the shallow aquifer in monsoon is 3 to 10 m. and Non-monsoon : 0.5
to 6 m. In the year 2012-13 Ground water resource of District was computed and data reveals
that Dewas block having stage of ground water development 107.36%,Khategaon Block 89.32%
& Sonkatch Block 104.64% and they were categorized Over Exploited, Semi Critical and Over
Exploited respectively.
Ground water quality of Dewas district is in general good analysis report as given in
Table 10 except in two blocks namely Kannod and Khategaon , where PHED has collected
samples from hand pump and they found Fluoride concentration >1.5 mg/l in20 villages of
Kannod block and 34 villages of Khategaon.These hand pumps are fitted with fluoride filter
.Drinking water supply to the villages affected by high concentration of fluoride is being done
by assured drinking water scheme from Treatment Plant attached with Hand Pump(Govt. of
MP). as shown in Fig No In these two blocks , High fluoride conc. Exists in and Pump/Bore well
depth upto 120 m (>400Feet)Maximum Fluoride concentration is 3.8 mg/l.Mostly borewells
show high conc. of Fluoride than dug wells. (source : Fluro apatite), Villagers are affected with
dental and skeletal fluorosis.

CHAPTER-VI
GROUND WATER MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES
The demand of fresh water for agriculture, drinking and industrial uses etc. has
significantly increased due to population growth and socio-economic development. As surface
water resources in the district are in-adequate, the dependability on ground water resources
has increased substantially. This has resulted in rapid exploitation of ground water resources vis
a vis depletion of ground water levels in various parts of the State.
The District Dewas is one of the under stress rapid exploitation of ground water
resources in the district , ground water resources in the area are under continuous depletion.
Thus there is urgent need for taking up suitable water management interventions based on
integrated approach, which on one hand includes augmentation of ground water resources
through appropriate techniques, and on the other hand requires the adoption of suitable water
conservation measures, such as ensuring water use efficiency through creation of additional
water storage facility, maintenance/ renovation of existing water bodies etc. Water awareness
and capacity building of the stakeholders are also the important attributes of water
management interventions as envisaged in the National Water Policy.
Artificial recharge to ground water is one of the most efficient, scientifically proven and
cost effective technology to mitigate the problems of over exploitation of ground water
resources. The technology serves as a means for restoring the depleted ground water storage,
ameliorate the ground water quality problems and also enhance the sustainability of wells in
the affected areas. A detailed knowledge of geology, hydrogeology, land use pattern,
geomorphology and hydro-meteorological features are however, essential for selection of
appropriate artificial recharge techniques as well as design and sites of ground water recharge
structures.

conservation structures, their design considerations, numbers and cost estimates. The expected
outcomes of the proposed interventions have also been elucidated and given in table no 17. As
Dewas district having Stage Of Development 85.26% after proposed intervention Stage Of

6.2 INTERVENTION OF TECHNOLOGY
Rising demand for irrigation water a mid concerns of rowing water scarcity has brought
into renewed focus the need for improving water use efficiency and raising crop water
productivity. Great emphasis is being made on achieving water conservation through various
demand side management interventions encompassing technological options and policy
measures. Given the difficulties and political concerns associated with bringing about effective
policy reforms to achieve the objective of water conservation, this emphasis has generally
focused on technological solutions backed by soft policy interventions to aid and facilitate
adoption of technological solutions by farmers.
Micro irrigation technologies such drip and sprinkler systems are being increasingly
promoted as technological solutions for achieving water conservation. Of the two
technologies, drip irrigation, in its various forms, has been a relatively more important mode of
micro irrigation in India. Enough empirical evidences available from different parts of the
country to suggest that drip technology saves water and is cost effective and has significant
economic and social benefits.
Drip irrigation saves water and electricity for pumping water, uses less labor and leads to higher
crop productivity.
Farmers in India generally practice flood irrigation resulting in low water application and
use efficiency. The estimated surface irrigation water use efficiency in India is 35-40%. With
deteriorating surface water infrastructure and rapid declines in ground water tables in large
parts of the country, and in the face of increasing demand for water from all sectors of the
economy, there is a widespread concern for using the available water more efficiently. Micro
irrigation systems, comprised of drip and sprinkler technologies, have emerged as an effective
tool for water conservation and improving water use efficiency. While drip irrigation is ideally
suited for horticulture crops such as pomegranates, grapes, mangoes, bananas, guava,
coconuts, amla, and cash crops such as sugarcane, it is being used for cultivation of other crops
as well. Sprinklers are generally useful in undulating land planted with cereal crops. Despite
substantial efforts in promoting demands idea management technologies, in practice, drip and
sprinkler technologies have been slow to be accepted by farmers. Of the two, drip irrigation is
the more preferred technology.
Drip irrigation is an irrigation method which enables saving water by allowing water to
drip slowly to the roots of plants, either on the soil surface or directly into the root zone. Drip
irrigation methods range from simple bucket kit systems for small farms to automated systems
linking release of water to soil moisture conditions measured continuously by tension meters.
Drip Irrigation technologies can be categorized into two groups based on their technical,
economic and social attributes. These are low cost drip irrigation technologies and pressurized
systems. The low cost drip irrigation technologies include the “pep see3,”easy drip , various
kinds of affordable drip irrigation systems designed by IDE, and micro tube rip systems.

Drip Irrigation in India: current status and potential application
It is now possible to use drip and sprinkler irrigation to a wide variety of crops. Various
estimates of potential and actual area4under micro irrigation technologies have been made
available by different researchers and institutions.
Table No14:Selectedareacovered(inhectares)undermicroirrigationasat31October,2008
To reduce the ground water draft in Dewas district it is proposed that total irrigated
Area 184919 ha which is irrigated by ground water , if 50% of this area i.e. 92460 ha is to be
irrigate by using sprinkle then total ground water save in one year is about 74 MCM. The block

Dewas district where as total irrigated area is 184919 ha and Irrigated Area under wheat
21101.5ha ,it is proposed that 50% of this wheat cultivated area change the crop cultivation
from wheat to gram then total saving of water will be 10.55 MCM .As Wheat requires minimum
four watering and whereas Gram requires only two watering . This change in cropping pattern
is block wise proposed in table no 16.
