Summary:

more-inThe government is likely to shelve the much-touted water treatment plant project at Kalamassery owing to non-availability of land. The project involved the construction of a treatment plant and the laying of a raw water pipeline from Aluva. Later, the Kerala Water Authority (KWA) was asked to submit a fresh project report to revive the administrative sanction. The 185-million-litres-a-day water supply augmentation project has become a non-starter four years after it was announced. According to sources in the KWA, the project had received administrative sanction with 15 acres identified near HMT School..
