Games Village gets a new water treatment plant

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit on Saturday inaugurated sewage and water treatment plants at the Commonwealth Games Village to meet the water requirements during the October sporting extravaganza.

Ms. Dikshit inaugurated a 1 MGD sewage treatment plant (STP) and 1 MGD water treatment plant (WTP) -- both set up by the Delhi Jal Board -- in the presence of State Finance Minister A.K. Walia.

The MGD water treatment plant, built at a cost of Rs. 35.20 crore, will use groundwater and provide 1 MGD water to the Commonwealth Games Village. The treatment scheme will use state-of-the-art technology and it has been designed as a zero liquid waste discharge plant.

The sewage treatment plant has been set up at a cost of Rs. 31.95 crore for the CWG Village and it provides the advantage of minimum carbon footprint while maintaining the overall architectural and aesthetic requirements.

“It is very necessary and the plant will ultimately supply for the Games Village and hopefully for Akshardam Temple. The 1 MGD plant is specially dedicated for the Games,” Ms. Dikshit said after inaugurating the plants. - PTI
