The Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) has approved ₹150 crore to shore up drinking water supply to the city to cater to the next 30 to 40 years.
The project entails ramping up the delivery mechanism to enable pumping an additional 120 MLD of water from Bidirugodu on the banks of the Kabini. Though the installed capacity is 180 MLD, only 60 MLD was being pumped from the site and in order to meet the requirement of the growing population of Mysuru, works will be taken up to shore up the distribution network.
