Proposal for a new pipeline from Kodapar to Thanaud Tila Anicut
16 km long pipeline will be laid at a cost of Rs 109 crore
Raipur 19 December 2024: With the efforts of Chief Minister Vishnudev Sai, Nava Raipur Atal Nagar is moving towards becoming a city with state-of-the-art facilities. State Housing and Environment Minister OP Choudhary is trying to prepare Nava Raipur Atal Nagar as a city of the future to make it one of the modern cities of the country. One of these schemes is the supply of uninterrupted drinking water to the people of Nava Raipur Atal Nagar for the next 25 years. Nava Raipur Development Authority has started its preparations to provide drinking water in future as per the demand of depletion of underground water and increasing population.
For this, a proposal has been prepared to lay a new pipeline from Kodapar to Thanaud Tila Anicut near Abhanpur. This pipeline will be 16 km long and its estimated cost will be around Rs 109 crore. Water is supplied to Nava Raipur Atal Nagar from Tila Anicut. But due to water shortage during summers, water is supplied from Kodapar to Thanaud through a natural open canal. Water comes to Kodapar from Ravishankar reservoir. The distance of the open canal from Kodapar to Thanaud is about 25 km. A lot of water is lost when released through an open canal for such a long distance. Due to the open canal, the actual capacity of water is not used. To ensure that the people of Nava Raipur do not face any problem of water and there is also no loss of water, canal water will be transported to Naya Raipur Atal Nagar through a pipeline instead of a natural canal. By laying the pipeline, the distance from Kodapar to Thanaud will also be reduced and water will reach Thanaud in its actual capacity without any loss. With the implementation and completion of this project, the citizens of the city will not have to face any problem related to drinking water in the future.
