My bad.Good, you finally understand this basic point...
First, where exactly is this "3.3 MAF tunnel capacity” coming from? ... There is no publicly verified design discharge or even confirmed tunnel specification to justify turning it into precise MAF claims...
Everything after that is assumption stacked on assumption...
Second, converting any annual number into neat monthly extraction ignores basic hydrology....glacial rivers are highly seasonal, not evenly divisible flows...
Third, "desilting basin solves it" isn’t a switch you turn on... sediment loads are variable and operational limits still cap continuous diversion...
In short, it’s not engineering reality, just stacked assumptions presented as precision...
That’s not hydrology, it’s spreadsheet logic imposed on a chaotic river system.
I meant Chenab's peak monsoon flow is 3.3 MAF for those 4 months (at that tunnel point), off which 1.1MAF (tunnels capacity) can ideally be pulled out. Which would be ~0.9 MAF with desilting losses.
I am not converting annual cusec figures. I am converting specific months's cusec figures in MAF for that particular 4 months season.
