‘Jal Dhara' inches closer to reality
Panchkula: The much-awaited 'Jal Dhara' project for the beautification and rejuvenation of two seasonal rivulets (nullahs) flowing through the city may soon become a reality with the Panchkula Metropolitan Development Authority (PMDA) floating a Rs 76.50 crore tender. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The tender, which includes proposals for both commercial and recreational utilisation of the areas surrounding the nullahs, has invited bids from interested agencies by Sept 1. A private agency has already completed the detailed project report (DPR), laying out a comprehensive plan to transform the currently neglected water channels. According to the PMDA, the plan involves cleaning the rivulets and developing dedicated walking and jogging tracks along their paths. As part of the beautification effort, greenery and ornamental plants will be introduced, while protective nets will be installed to prevent the dumping of garbage. Areas where side walls are broken will be repaired. To ensure long-term sustainability and public engagement, the project also envisions the creation of special shops and refreshment huts. It is also aimed at earning revenue. At present, these rivulets are in a deplorable state, choked with waste and frequented by stray cattle and dogs. Residents have long been pressing for their development. Illegal encroachments along the banks pose a significant challenge to the project's execution. An official said, "Tackling encroachments and ensuring public cooperation will be crucial for the success of 'Jal Dhara'. However, with the tender now floated and groundwork in progress, the project has moved closer to becoming a reality — promising a cleaner, greener, and more vibrant Panchkula."
