In my personal opinion, Most structures of Minor Irrigation schemes (e.g. small check dams of stone RR masonry, kuchha channels etc.), by the very nature of their design, can not last long. Their maintenance is as good as executing a new scheme. Designers must boldly state that this type of design shall last for, say 2 year or even 1 year. Instead of brushing things under carpet lets make a conscious decision.
