Project Extension

Indian Hume Pipe Co Ltd on Saturday said it has bagged a Rs 110-crore pipe order in Rajasthan. In a statement, the company said it has secured the work order from the Public Health Engineering Department (PHED), Ajmer. "It is for Cluster Water Supply Project Package-VII of Chambal Bhilwara Water Supply Project Phase II of Jahajpur-Kotri Tehsils of District Bhilwara under Jal Jeevan Mission with operation and maintenance for 10 years," the company said. The project is to be completed within 15 months from signing of the agreement, it said.

Delays in seeking extension are undesirable as it increases uncertainty on the project, said Cabinet Secretariat
