Bihar Approves Son River Water-Sharing Agreement with Jharkhand

The Bihar Cabinet has approved a plan to share the water of the Son River with Jharkhand.

This agreement was made after a meeting where both states discussed how to divide the water.

Originally, undivided Bihar was given a certain amount of water, but after Bihar split, Jharkhand wanted its share.

Now, Bihar will get 5.75 MAF and Jharkhand will get 2.00 MAF.

This decision will help build a big project called the Indrapuri Reservoir, which will provide water for farming in many districts.

The next step is for both states to work together to make this plan happen quickly.

The Cabinet also approved many other projects, including setting up factories, building a logistics park, and installing CCTV cameras in jails.
