Brahmaputra-Kaveri link: India’s river-interlinking dream explained and the roadblocks ahead

India is working on an initiative to interlink rivers, particularly focusing on the connection between Brahmaputra and Kaveri. This proposal aims to address water scarcity in southern states, which often experience erratic rainfall. Several challenges exist, including interstate disputes, environmental concerns, and the need for technical feasibility. The Godavari-Kaveri link is critical in this proposal, but agreement among states remains complex.
