CSCL had earlier failed to get bidders for the 160-crore project. A tender will be floated again to kick start the project in a week’s time. The decision was taken as no company had come forward to bid for the project.

The technical committee of the CSCL decided in favour of the proposal to allow joint-venture companies, negating the earlier policy allowing only single companies. Under the project, 13,700 water connections are to provide fresh supply lines.
