The need
for adopting Participatory Approach for management of Irrigation projects
is crucial for conserving and optimal utilization of resources, since
Participatory Irrigation Management (PIM) refers to involvement of
Irrigation users in all aspects of Irrigation Management and at all
levels. The aspects include the initial planning and design of new Minor
Irrigation Projects (MIP’s), their construction, supervision as well as
improvement and also for decision making, operation and maintenance (O&M),
monitoring and evaluation of the system. The Irrigation system in the
country especially in the state of Meghalaya has so far been largely
constructed and managed by the Government, so introducing PIM requires a
new paradigm in Irrigation Management.
