Dhule: ₹1,058 Crore Jamphal Irrigation Scheme To Benefit Farmers In 54 Villages

In the Dhule district of Maharashtra, the ₹1,058 crore Jamphal Dam Pipeline Distribution Network (PDN) project has commenced, targeting the provision of irrigation facilities to 54 villages in Shindkheda taluka. Minister Jaykumar Rawal, a Dhule Guardian Minister, inaugurated the main pipeline connection work at the Jamphal Dam site.

The Sulwade-Jamphal-Kanoli Lift Irrigation Scheme aims to channel water from the Tapi River to drought-prone areas of the taluka. Efforts to secure approval for the Sulwade-Jamphal project gained traction in 2014 under then Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone in February 2019, following which the pace of implementation accelerated.

As of now, works worth ₹1,058 crore have been invested in the closed-conduit pipeline distribution system, designed to irrigate a command area of 26,907 hectares across 54 villages.
