82 [corresponding to S.218 of the Panchayat Raj Act, 1994)- A river takes in the river bed. It is difficult to understand the term "river" as confined to the flowing water.

82(1) corresponding to S.218 of the Panchayat Raj Act, 1994]– Scope and ambit of - Land which is part of water course of a major river flowing through more than one Panchayat, whether vests in the Panchayat - The word "may" has been used to convey that the Government has a discretion to declare that a particular river shall not stand transferred to and vest in the Panchayat. If the Government intends that a particular river should not stand transferred to and vest in the Panchayat then it is required to issue a notification. As a matter of fact sub-s.(1) of S.82 does not make any difference between a major river or a minor river. What it really adverts to is the water-courses which include the rivers as defined in S.2(33) of the Act. Therefore it is only such of the rivers which are included in the notification published in the gazette that shall not stand transferred to and vest in the Panchayat. In the absence of a notification, the river in question which flows through more areas that one Panchayat area stands transferred to and vest in the Panchayat. – State of Kerala v.

It is not just the point where the sluices terminate but the land or area appertaining or adjacent to the area also does not vest in the Panchayat. – Kodamthuruth Panchayat v.
