In a recent meeting held by CM Vijay Rupani, signification suggestions were made to develop the entire Vishwamitri river banks starting from Pavagadh to the Gulf of Khambhat.
With the recent floods in the city and drought-like summers in the state of Gujarat, “it is essential to devise a holistic development plan for Vishwamitri to prevent adverse effects on the people of Vadodara,” emphasized CM Rupani.
Additionally, the presentation by the CM suggested VMC to chalk out a comprehensive plan that also ensures a 12-month water flow in the Vishwamitri River that eventually enhances the beauty and green cover in the city of Vadodara. The same plan will be shared with the Central Government for its assistance.
The meeting was attended by Vadodara’s Mayor Dr. Jigishaben Seth, Mr. B. N. Navlawala – Advisor to CM (Water Resources), Mr. K. Kailashnathan – Chief Principal Secretary to CM, Mr. Mukesh Puri – Add. Chief Secretary (Urban Development), Mr. M. K. Das – Principal Secretary to CM, Mr. Nalin Upadhyay – VMC Commissioner, Dr. M. H.
