Water supply projects under Amrut 2.0 will begin in Rajasthan after four years of delays. The Public Health Engineering Department (PHED) will start projects in 175 urban local bodies, inviting bids for 163 of them on March 6. PHED plans to provide 28 lakh new urban water connections over the next two years. These connections aim to serve the projected population until 2050. Previously, the projects were transferred to the Rajasthan Urban Drinking Water Sewerage and Infrastructure Corporation due to delays. However, PHED has now resumed responsibility for the projects under the current government.
