One of its biggest comprehensive projects ever, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is set to launch a Central Government initiative for Mumbai called the Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT).

The civic body has sent a proposal in this regard to the Central Government. According to this Rs 28 thousand crore project, the BMC will undertake a massive drive to redevelop and improve the drinking water provisions in the city and the city’s sewerage management network. Mumbai is one of the cities in Maharashtra selected by the state government for the AMRUT project.
