Smart Cities And Vishvaraj Infrastructure (VIL)
Smart Cities can be a great start up for creating water management systems through private partnerships. Companies like Vishvaraj Infra (VIL), can have a huge impact in the development and smooth functioning of Smart Cities.
With an objective to recast the urban landscape of the country to make urban areas more livable and inclusive besides driving the economic growth, the Union Cabinet chaired by Honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi have introduced two new Urban Missions, AMRUT and Smaart Cities.
As per the Smart Cities Mission, 100 cities will be selected. Each of these cities would get assistance from the government with Rs.100 crore per year for five years. The noble intention of constructing 100 smart cities is to adopt smarter solutions for efficient use of available assets, resources and infrastructure. The simple objective here is to enhance the quality of urban life and provide a clean and sustainable environment. The basic premise of a smart city is making urban infrastructure network and delivery of urban utility services.
In such a scenario, efficient water and waste water management is an integral part for any Smart City to function steadily. This is where a company with experience like VIL could be beneficial for this kind of a setup. The work done is to look no further than Nagpur. In collaboration with the Municipal Corporation of Nagpur, the project today provides a large portion Nagpur’s population with 24x7 supply. Other projects on similar line have been started by the company in South India.
To meet the challenges of continuing growth without destroying the environment, sustainable development is crucial. Water scarcity and water pollution are crucial issues in today’s world. Sustainable water management requires working across the value chain of water.
The term "smart water" incorporates water and wastewater infrastructure that ensures optimisation of water consumption. Water loss management is becoming increasingly important as supplies are stressed by population growth or water scarcity. Smart water system also implies transforming wastewater treatment plants into resource recovery facilities, which includes reuse of water.
Recently, at the World Water Leadership Congress & Awards, Vishvaraj Infrastructure Limited (VIL), won two major awards. The company won the presitigious Water Reuse Project of the Year and Mr Arun Lakhani, VIL’s chairman and managing director won the award for Outstanding Contribution to Water.
Vishvaraj Infrastructure provides global solutions that contribute to sustainable development in the water sector through innovation in the design, construction and operation of drinking water treatment plants, distribution system reforms, etc. The Company has executed or in execution projects worth approximately Rs 27,500 million across the three sectors primarily through PPP contracting and few through EPC route.
