scheme submitted to it under sub-section (1) of section 29,
have particular regard to, whether or not in its opinion-]

consistent with the requirements of irrigation, navigation
and flood-control and for this purpose the Authority 3[shall
satisfy itself, after consultation with the State government,
the Central Government, or such other agencies as it may deem
appropriate,] that an adequate study has been made of the
optimum location of dams and other river-works;

the proposed scheme will prejudice the proper combination
of hydro-electric and thermo-electric power necessary to secure
the greatest possible economic output of electric power;
(c)the
proposed main transmission lines will be reasonably suitable
for regional requirements;

scheme provides reasonable allowances for expenditure on capital
