The funds would be invested on the revival of river and Rs. 565-cr on the seven ongoing railway over bridges (ROBs), including the ambitious elevated road project. The NCRPB has provided 75% as loan as the project cost and the JDA expects to earn Rs. 900-cr from auctioning land, said official sources.
