A
large part of rural India still lacks
access to proper power supply and
adequate irrigation infrastructure.
This sector requires tremendous investments
to support agriculture and sustain
the rural population.
Power Grid Corporation of India under
the Ministry of Power as well as individual
state electricity boards have been
tasked with strengthening the transmission
network of the country. Based on recent
estimates, an additional 60,000 km
of transmission network worth about
Rs. 71,000 crores will have to be
established by 2011-2012. The Inter-regional
transfer capacity will also have to
be boosted from the current 9,000
MW to 30,000 MW by 2012.
Simultaneously,
the irrigation infrastructure of the
country is seeing tremendous revision. |

Development of new canals, management
and maintenance of waterways,as well
as setting up of regional water reservoirs
are getting a lot of focus from the
central and state governments in an
effort to bolster the vast agriculture
industry.
Kaushalya Gram was conceptualized
to position ourselves appropriately
in this growth sector. Our current
efforts are centered on projects involving
establishment, relocation and strengthening
of high tension wire lines and electrical
sub stations. Simultaneously we are
exploring various irrigation projects
particularly related to canal development
and management of waterways including
de-silting and drazing. |
