REMARKS
FROM
VISITOR's
BOOK
 |
CWPRS is doing a wonderful job for various states in India in building Dams, Reservoirs, Hydro-electric Power Stations, etc. That this modelling by the CWPRS has been a great success is evident from the fact the State Governments for whom models were produced have persuaded the CWPRS not to dismantle the designs so that they remained safe for future. I wish the CWPRS fraternity under the able leadership of Mrs. Bendre all success ahead.

I visited CWPRS, Pune (Khadakwasla) to examine the Scheduled Castes employees schemes and their welfare guaranteed under the Constitution of India. I was satisfied with the work done in this respect by the Director and the staff. We gave some suggestions and they agreed to implement them as per rules. However, their other work of providing hydraulic models and research work in this regard was very impressive. I was shown Bombay Port, Narmada (Sardar Sarovar) and Yamuna River Project. I was really stunned to see the work they have done in this respect. I must congratulate Dr. (Mrs) Bendre and her colleagues for this wonderful work. I wish them well in their future undertakings in this connection as they get work from various states of India and foreign countries.

The Central Water & Power Research Station, Pune, is a visual feast. The Director, Dr (Mrs) Bendre and her collegues have developed hydraulic models that constitute the best example of dealing with .... relating to hydraulic knowledge. The visit to Yamuna/Salma Hydroelectric Project, Trishuli/Uri Project, Mumbai Port was a rewarding experience. I was very happy to understand the positive sides of their achievement. I would suggest that the Station must initiate on sizable effort directed forwards collaboration at international level and organise vigorous exchange of ideas among scientists in field, throughout India. I wish the institute excellent achievement in the years to come. -

One is astonished at the work done by the institute in last go years. The forefathers thought of future generations and in a way guided them to do the right things. We should always keep this in mind and whenever we take decisions should always be mindful about the basic rules of physics and then go ahead in every project. I thank the institute for planning for world's future congratulations. |

Thank you for a very interesting visit. This apex Research Station is conducting very valuable studies for sophisticated water and power projects as well as for surface transport. It must keep up and retain its position as the premier such institution in the country and infact become internationally leading institution and with its team of expert and dedicated scientists, research scholars and engineers. I am sure it will be possible for them to do so. |

I visited CWPRS. It is a great pleasure to me. Technically and mathematically the deep knowledge of port has been obtained. The Beheram Port which is proposed port be needed some assistance. I suggest to provide them. Suggestion also be given to the Government of Maharashtra that where 'Vikrant' be bearth. Surat Port be reinstated. Also provide some assistance to Sanghi Port in Gujarat. |

CWPRS is a world class facility and is involved in all the aspects of Hydropower Plant. I was amazed and inspired by the dedication of the engineers and scientists who are working here. Their sense of ownership and dedication is a model for other institutions. CWPRS needs to go global as I do not think there is any facility to match the CWPRS facilities at Pune. Its a pride for the whole nation. |

My visit to CWPRS which was basically concentrated on the mathematical and physical models of Ports and Harbours was a real educative one. In fact, the models together with the success stories give an indication that CWPRS can make a substantial contribution in construction of optimum structures in a most cost effective manner. |

I
was very impressed by the workmanship and management of the random
wave model of the MPT. As
one who sanctioned the project at a cost of Rs. 3 crores I had this
satisfaction of seeing that the money was well spent and would serve
the needs of MPT in all its development plan in future. I cannot
leave this note without making a special mention being made about
the dynamism and drive of the new Director. I am sure this research station will witness faster growth
under her dynamic leadership. |

I
stayed in the campus of CWPRS for almost two days. What surprises me is the way this huge institute functioning.
Proper
attention to this institution seems not given by all of us who are
at the helm of affairs. I
believe, if proper scope, more infrastructure, more scope for
research and due publicity are given, CWPRS will surely turn to be a top most organization of
this kind in the world. I
appreciate dedicated work of the staff including scientists,
engineers and other workers. Mrs. Bendre, Director, is the inspiring force behind.
I wish her luck for more progressive achievement. |

A
wonderful opportunity to renew the links between this famous
research institute and ISH and to open a new chapter in links
between the Indian Hydraulics communities and the world community
of IAHR. CWPRS
continues to actively promote in a competent way the hybrid use of
physical and numerical models and with the current booming
development of India. CWPRS
is well set to apply its knowledge to help in future development. |
