Dedicated Registered Body for Clean Ganga

I went to the Ministry of Environment & Forest today. West Bengal is among the first few states to constitute the Programme Management Group that will be dedicated to NGRBA. I was advised to expedite formation of the JV Co that will be one of the Project Implementation Agencies.

I proposed that a workshop may be arranged to finalise the bid documents for a DBO (Design Build & Operate) contract with 5 year  O&M for already-sanctioned STPs (Sewage Treatment Plants). I said that we'll need help of consultants from the Ministry. This was agreed to in principle. I'll give a formal proposal on my return to Kolkata (I'm in Delhi airport now, waiting for the 8.50pm Jet flight to Kolkata)
