Your ideas are good and needs to be seriously considered. With so many IIT's and other research institutions etc. having good researchers and scientists, we can definitely look for timely solution to this critical situation if the Govt. takes some serious initiatives. With so many people dying of floods and drought every year, I wonder why nothing has been done about the Water Channelization. I am sure that it must be possible, though large funds and efforts must be required but it should definitely be possible. What I can see is that Govt. is not considered about the common man dying. The politicians in Delhi and Gurgaon have enough money in their Swiss accounts to lead a happy life abroad even if after 10 years there is no water here. I am sure they are lazy to take some serious action for working on these projects and wants money from such flood and drought relief projects. They must be making crores as no one sees how much actually reaches the effected families. It's a good money making business and they want to continue it till end when we all die. What should we do? We should find out ways to make these politicians work on this serious issue. Media and courts can definitely help if we - the general public makes serious efforts to get this implemented. BTW - Did you get any reply from Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. I think No!.
