190-MLD Aluva water treatment plant gets technical sanction
A technical sanction has been granted for the 190-million-litre-per-day water treatment plant planned in Aluva, according to a report. This facility aims to tackle drinking water shortages in the Kochi Corporation and nearby municipalities and grama panchayats. The Kerala Water Authority (KWA) source revealed the agency could move forward with the tendering process once the sanction was received.
T. J. Vinod, MLA, announced on August 17, 2026, that the government's approval had eliminated a significant obstacle in the project's execution. He further stated that the initiative would markedly enhance the drinking water supply in Kochi and its surrounding regions, offering a lasting resolution to the existing deficit.
