With no new layouts proposed, the bulk of its revenue was going towards various works, including the drinking water project that the MUDA has been funding to bring Cauvery water to the layouts developed by it, new localities and nearby villages.
A sum of ₹100 crore has been allocated for the Hale Undawadi drinking water project in the Budget presented for the financial year of 2024-25. MUDA Commissioner Dinesh Kumar presented the Budget on Thursday.
The cost of the drinking water project that plans to pump 900 MLD of Cauvery water catering to Mysuru and nearby villages has been revised to ₹615 crore from ₹545 crore over the Budget escalation. In view of this, the MUDA’s share has also gone up.
