The Gujarat government announced the completion of 497 AMRUT 2.0 projects, totaling ₹4,832 crore, and the addition of 272,000 new tap connections across the state.
Gujarat has declared that 497 projects under the AMRUT 2.0 (Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation) scheme have been completed, with an outlay of ₹4,832 crore. The projects span multiple urban centres and focus on water supply, sewerage, and related infrastructure upgrades.
The completion has resulted in the addition of 272,000 new tap connections, expanding access to safe drinking water for households that previously lacked reliable supply. State officials highlighted that the expanded network is expected to improve public health outcomes and support urban growth.
The government said the finished works are part of a broader effort to modernise urban services and meet the targets set under the central AMRUT mission. The financial commitment reflects Gujarat's emphasis on infrastructure development as a driver of economic progress.
No further details on individual project locations were released, but the state indicated that the benefits will be felt across both larger cities and smaller towns that participated in the scheme.
