Saying about interlinking of rivers, there is still no scientific basis to arrive at the conclusion that whether any river basin in India is 'surplus' or 'deficit' which was considered as the foundation on which  interlinking of rivers was said to be done. A full assessment of that study will take another 15 years.    In addition to that, interlinking of rivers without looking at the ecological impact may be very harmful for  environment. Scientists are still doubtful that river diversion may bring significant changes in the physical and chemical compositions of the river morphology, sediment load and the shape of the delta formed at the river basin.
