The system will improve in these villages also

This will benefit four villages including Gillakheda, Bodiwali, Sarwarpur and Kukdanwali. Canal water will be supplied through DI pipe by building a new pumping station in Gillakheda.
Special focus on SC settlements

After this, the officials of the Public Health Department had prepared estimates of these works and sent them to the headquarters. After getting permission from there, tenders have now been issued.
