The study A Review on Issue and Problem Associated with Sikta Irrigation Project of Banke District in Nepal was conducted during the period from March to August, 2019. The main objective of this study was to find the problems of Sikta Irrigation Project in Banke district of Nepal. Published literature from different sources such as thesis, papers, manuals, database, and reports were collected and thoroughly studied. The study found so many problems associated with the Sikta Irrigation Project (SIP). Of all those problems, environmental, socio-political, technical and financial problems are the major ones. SIP is the project of national pride, and it is under-construction in Banke district of Nepal. The most important and ever observed problem in the construction field is the failure of canal bed and sides due to dispersive soil. The study would like to suggest that soil test should be conducted as per the expert’s advice before construction of the canal or other structures. Monitoring and control system from the concerned agency should be properly implemented for the construction of Sikta Irrigation Project in the days to come.
