India is considering an ambitious plan to link the majority of its major river basins through a vast network of canals, diverting billions of litres from the country's more water-rich river basins to those that are water-deprived. Directed by India's National Water Development Agency (NWDA), the first canal of the interlinking rivers project may get underway as early as this year. March 20, 2008
