CM Bhupesh Baghel inaugurates Pathway, Painting, Electrification and Beautification work in Dalpat Sagar

 

Raipur: Chief minister
Bhupesh Baghel, who reached Jagdalpur to attend the world famous Bastar
Dussehra, inaugurated pathway, painting and electrification work in the
northern part of Dalpat Sagar lake at a cost of Rs 1.92 crore and unveiled  the beautification work done at a cost of Rs 76
lakh.

At the same time, he
performed Bhumipujan of shop construction work also done in the northern end of
Dalpat Sagar Island itself, at the cost of Rs 13.60 lakh.

Chief minister launched
the water level maintenance scheme of Dalpat Sagar with 75 HP Viti Pump from Indrāvati
river under the Amrit Mission scheme by pressing the button, as a result of
which the water of Indrāvati river has started reaching Dalpat Sagar. As part
of this step taken towards preserving Dalpat Sagar, this exercise has been done
to fill the clean water of Indrāvati river in Dalpat Sagar.


Under this, two pumps
of 75-75 hp each have been installed in the intake well set up under the Jal
Augmentation scheme at Power House Chowk and the water of Indravati river is
being delivered to Dalpat Sagar through a 700 meter pipeline of 400 mm
diameter. It is noteworthy that due to hyacinth, the historical Dalpat Sagar
was not only losing its beauty, but it was also losing its existence. Apart
from saving the existence of Dalpat Sagar, continuous work is being done by
Bastar district administration and Municipal Corporation to enhance its beauty.
Water hyacinth flourished on a large scale in Dalpat Sagar due to the inflow of
large quantities of water for domestic use.

To remove this
hyacinth, a machine has also been provided by the district administration to
the municipal corporation at a cost of Rs 75 lakh, due to which the Dalpat
Sagar is now very clearly visible. At the same time, so that the water hyacinth
does not flourish again in Dalpat Sagar, action is also being taken to stop the
contaminated water from coming into Dalpat Sagar. In view of the depletion of the
water level in Dalpat Sagar due to the stoppage of  the inflow of contaminated water here, an exercise has been taken to fill it
with clean water of the Indravati river. The work is also almost completed.
Water through ten outlets at Jagdalpur reaches Dalpat Sagar and Indravati River
directly and contaminates them. To keep Indravati and Dalpat Sagar free from
pollution, a sewerage treatment plant has been set up at Balikonta at a cost of
about Rs 54 crore.  It is also worth
mentioning that about 8 MLD of polluted water is discharged from Jagdalpur
every day and for the treatment of this contaminated water a sewerage treatment
plant of 25 MLD capacity has been set up at Balikonta.  About 10 km long pipeline has been laid to
carry the contaminated water up to Balikonta.
