Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority has planned to build urban infra projects worth ₹1,900 crore largely related to water supply, drainage, and stormwater lines for areas like Sanand, Manipur, Godhavi, Sanathal, Mehmedabad, Aslali, Jetalpur, Telav and Bareja localities. It also placed before the state government a plan to complete piped water supply to 45 villages on the outskirts of the city. The plan is worth ₹1,580 crore and under this mission, Auda has covered 45 villages of Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar districts for the supply of potable water. With the unavailability of Narmada drinking water, groundwater levels had plummeted to anywhere between 500-700 feet in these areas. Over a period of time, several of these difficulties have been overcome. In Sanand, a 20 million litres per day (MLD) capacity water treatment plant, water pumping stations, underground and elevated water tanks and water supply distribution network is being set up. Bopal and Ghuma areas too are getting their own robust water supply systems. The authority is currently laying an advanced stormwater drainage network with the rejuvenation of lake and recharge of groundwater and that the state government has also agreed to provide a seed fund of ₹285 crore. To accomplish these projects ₹126 crore will be required for project consultancy and ₹158 crore for any escalation in prices during the implementation of the project.
