Millennium Post Kolkata
|Kolkata 28March2025
It is being implemented with no cost volume sharing model at five river stretches from 2022-23 to date on a pilot basis
-
KOLKATA: State Irrigation minister Manas Bhuniya on Wednesday said that a state government agency has developed a "unique" model in which dredging operations will be carried out in rivers and canals but no cost will be incurred on the state exchequer.
After dredging, contractors will pay the royalty on the dredged material and also give a part of the pulled out soil to the government, which can be utilised for various purposes, Bhuniya told reporters.
In case the dredging is not a complex one, the district administration concerned will carry out such an exercise with the support of irrigation and waterways department engineers, he said.
