Reference excerpt

Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project (सुनकोशी मरिन डाइभर्सन आयोजना) is one of the National Pride Projects being developed by Ministry of Energy, Water Resources and Irrigation (Nepal). The project got status of National Pride Projects in 20 January 2020. The project is an inter-basin transfer project to transfer water from Sunkoshi River to the Marin Khola, a tributary of Bagmati River. The flow will be discharged to the Bagmati Irrigation System to irrigate additional 122,000 ha of land in Rautahat, Dhanusha, Mahottari, Sarlahi and Bara. The main objective of Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Multipurpose Project (SMDMP) is to meet the discharge deficit in the churiya region of mid Nepal. The project is expected to increase recharge and irrigation especially in the valley of Marin river. It will also contribute to increase the flow contributed by the Bagmati River during the dry season. The design flow of the project is 67 m3/s. The intake has a 12 m high diversion dam in Sunkoshi river. The flow is transferred via 13.3 km long tunnel. The project also has a power station to generate 38.62 MW of electricity. The powerhouse is located in Kamalamai municipality. The project cost is NPR 37.2 billion for irrigation and NPR 46.19 billion for hydro-electricity. The tunnel got break through on 8 May 2024 despite adverse geological condition. In November 2023 the drilling got stuck for a short period of time due to bedded schist, rock joints and cracks which was altered.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project

In research: Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Interbasin transfer, Irrigation in Nepal, National Pride Projects, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Sunkoshi Marin Diversion Project outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
