Minister for Local Self-Governments M.B. Rajesh inaugurated a modern wastewater management plant at Thrissur general hospital on Friday.
The Thrissur Corporation’s new plant would strengthen the Nava Kerala model envisaged by the State government. I hope that the Thrissur Corporation would become the first zero-waste Corporation in the State, the Minister said.
The project has been implemented with ₹5 crore under the AMRUT project. The wastewater will be treated and reused for gardening and flushing toilets. The plant can treat 3,60,000 litre waste water a day.
Addressing the function, Mayor M.K. Varghese said that the surrounding areas of the plant would be turned into a bio-park.
