The Bhama Askhed water supply project in Pimpri-Chinchwad, Maharashtra, India, is set to become fully operational by January 2027. This project aims to deliver 167 million liters per day (MLD) of water to the city, transitioning from the current alternate-day supply to a daily supply. During a recent review meeting led by Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) commissioner Vijay Suryawanshi, officials reported significant progress: the jackwell is complete, the pump house is 75% finished, and the substation is 80% complete. However, concerns regarding pollution in the Ravet and Nighoje barrages were raised by BJP MLA Mahesh Landge, emphasizing the need for advanced water treatment systems. Additionally, delays in laying a crucial pipeline led to the cancellation of the contractor's contract. Landge stressed the importance of appointing a dedicated officer for land acquisition and permissions to ensure the project's timely completion.
