Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a series of development projects worth Rs. 2900 Crores for the Agra city and the adjoining areas including dedicating the Gangajal project.
About:
Objective of the Ganga Jal Project is to provide better and more assured water supply in Agra.
Gangajal project aims to bring 140 cusecs of Ganga water to Agra from Palra headworks in Bulandshahr's Upper Ganga canal.
This will help meet the drinking water demands in the city.
Agra is mainly dependent on the Yamuna River for water. Yamuna water, being highly polluted with toxins, needs to be diluted by Ganga water.
