Work to lay a water pipeline to provide 135 litres per capita per day (LPCD) for each individual household in Ammoor town near Ranipet began on Tuesday.
Accompanied by Collector S. Valarmathi, Minister for Handlooms and Textiles R. Gandhi laid the foundation stone for the project, which is executed under AMRUT-2, the second phase of Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation programme.
“The new pipeline work will provide additional water supply for households to meet their domestic needs. The work will be completed by mid-2024,” said C. Hamsa, Additional Director of Town Panchayats (Vellore zone).
