Indore launches water conservation campaign
Indore: Ahead of the monsoon, Indore Municipal Corporation (IMC) on Thursday launched the second edition of the ' Jal Ganga Samvardhan Abhiyan ' (Water Ganga Conservation Campaign) to conserve water. The campaign will include the installation of 300 recharge shafts, the revival and hydrological survey of 411 wells, the deepening of 15 ponds, and the completion of channel cleaning. It will also involve public participation-based structures, along with proposals to implement penalty and reward policies and suggestions for tax exemptions. The event witnessed the enthusiastic participation of city representatives, social organisations, administrative officials, corporators, heads of educational institutions, NGO representatives, presidents of colony associations, and a large number of aware citizens. Cabinet minister Tulsiram Silawat said, "Indore's ponds, stepwells, and wells are our cultural heritage. It is necessary to free all these water sources from encroachments and rejuvenate them. 'Water is life' – with this spirit, we must take this campaign forward." Cabinet minister Kailash Vijayvargiya stated, "Indore has become an example for the country. Both punishment and reward are necessary to run a city. Those who conserve water should get tax exemptions, and those who don't should be penalised. All corporators should pledge to install at least 500 rainwater harvesting systems in their respective wards." TNN

IMC begins construction of link road to streamline traffic
Indore: Indore Municipal Corporation (IMC) on Friday launched the construction of a link road to connect MR 10 to MR 12 in Sanwer at a cost of Rs 32 crore. The road, constructed under special central assistance, is expected to reduce traffic load from MR 10 and MR 12 (Kumedi-Bhangia villages) and facilitate thousands of commuters traveling to/from the Indore-Ujjain highway, AB Road, and towards Dewas naka. Cabinet minister Tulsiram Silawat and mayor Pushyamitra Bhargava inaugurated the construction work of the new road that falls under the Sanwer assembly constituency . At the beginning of the event, the participants paid tribute to the citizens who lost their lives in the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam (J&K) by observing a two-minute silence. "This groundbreaking ceremony is a symbol of development, but at a time when the nation is in mourning, we are not celebrating, but rather beginning this work with resolve," the Mayor said. He further informed that the construction of 23 major roads under the Indore city Master Plan has commenced simultaneously, with a total cost of Rs 450 crore. According to Bhargava, compared to Indore's current population, the water supply is half of what is needed. "The target is to ensure an additional supply of 900 MLD of water in the coming years, which will meet the future needs of the city," he said, adding that a provision of Rs 5 crore has been made in the budget to accelerate development in the 29 villages included within the municipal corporation limits.
