HP signs MoU for 817.12 crore project with French Agency

5 towns to be covered under the project: CM

To improve drinking water and sanitation services in five towns of the State, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) of Rs. 817.12 crore project has been signed by the State Government with the French Development Agency Agence Francaise de Developpment (AFD).
The MoU was signed in the presence of Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu and Deputy Chief Minister Mukesh Agnihotri by the Secretary Jal Shakti Vibhag Amitabh Awasthi on behalf of the State Government and country Director AFD Bruno Bosle on behalf of French Development Agency.
The objective of the project is to develop better sewerage facilities in five towns of the state viz. Manali, Bilaspur, Palampur, Nahan and Karsog and to improve drinking water supply in Manali and Palampur towns.
Under the project, Rs. 612 crore would be provided by AFD, whereas the State Government would provide Rs. 204.85 crore, said the Chief Minister. The beneficiaries of the project would receive house service connections in these five cities and the sewerage treatment plant would be designed with the cutting-edge technologies, so that the effluent could be reused for agricultural and industrial purposes, he said. The project aims to improve the environmental condition of water sources, reduce water-borne diseases, manage quality sanitation facilities in accordance with local regulations and international best practices and bring financial sustainability to the drinking water and sanitation sector, he added.
Out of Rs. 425.85 crore in the first phase, Rs. 340 crore would be financed by AFD and in the second phase AFD would provide Rs. 272 crore out of a total project cost of Rs. 371 crore, said Sh. Sukhu. The implementation period of the project was three years and Phase-II will begin after 18 months from the commencement of Phase-I, he added.
“The State Government is committed to provide the best sanitation facilities and quality drinking water to the people of the State and this project would go a long way in achieving this goal” said the Chief Minister.
CPS, Sunder Singh Thakur, MLAs, Ashish Butail, Ajay Solanki, Bhuvneshwar Gaur and representatives from AFD, Ankit Tulsian and Akshita Sharma were present amongst others on the occasion.
