Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar has granted administrative approval to this crucial initiative. The existing 32 MLD WTP, commissioned on October 30, 2017, was designed to meet the needs up to 2027 under the National Capital Region Planning Board (NCRPB).

With the entire acquired land measuring 15 acres already utilized, the project involves the transfer of 12 acres 4 kanal 4 marla of land from Gram Panchayat Saidpur-Mohammadpur, Block Farrukh Nagar, District Gurugram, for the construction of additional structures,” the press release added.
