RIVERS OF NEPAL AND THEIR UTILITIES
RIVERS OF NEPAL

It is said that almost 6 thousand big and small river's are flowing with in Nepal leading to a flow of 170, 00,000 cubic meter per second. The estimated power potential of Nepal is around 83000 MW. Nepal River's and its power is one and only the important natural resources of Nepal. Benefits derived from it could be achieved through the proper utilization of hydropower by initiating power and energy and also facilitating irrigation. Power could be exporting to the neighboring country India.
   
Water resources beyond doubt have multiple uses e.g. hydropower development, irrigation and water transportation. Although hydropower potential of Nepal is estimated to be around 83000MW. It is stated that negligible amount 3%of it has been harnessed so far. In present context, due to financial resources problem we are not able to develop sufficient hydropower plants in Nepal to meet the internal demand. We are daily aiming and also dreaming of selling electricity to India by developing the hydropower.
     
So, the sources of Nepal like river's make to responsible for the generation, transmission and distribution of electric power in every corner of the country Nepal to see the faces of development for established the Nepal Electricity Authority in 1985.
