Latest Answer: The Narmada water project is way more expensive when you sit down and do do the math. The mayor feels that Indore is too heavily dependent on the Narmada river and we all know how much that is true. Every time some Narmada pipeline bursts, no water supply for days. When there is pollution, we get sewage in our drinking water. And sometimes just no water at all. At least the Choral river is brought to Indore by gravitational force and doesn't need to be pumped. Because of this the proposed 180 mld of water from Choral will cost Rs 12/1000 litres and the 360 mld from Narmada costs rs 32/1000 liters. And totally, Narmada project is costing 673 crores as opposed to 260 crores of Choral project. Definitely we need this project for the entire city!
