Efforts will be made to complete Polavaram by 2018:

Context

All efforts will be made to complete the Polavaram project in 2018 itself, Union Minister for Water Resources Nitin Gadkari

Earlier Completion

  • A target had been originally set to complete the project by 2019, but efforts were being made to provide water by gravity by 2018.
  • All obstacles for Land Acquisition and R&R would be addressed to ensure that work was not hindered in anyway
  • The issues with the DPR of the project would also be taken care of

One Month Timeline to improve performance

The Centre would give the contractors one month’s time to improve their performance

In case they fail to do so, the new contractors for which the State government has already called tenders would be asked to take over.
