Nanjangud: The Nugu Lift Irrigation Project, which is aimed at providing water to a good number of villages in Nanjangud taluk of the district, has now become a reality, with the Finance Department approving sanction of Rs. 80 crore for the project, thanks to the effort of MLA B. Harshavardhan.
Nanjangud BJP MLA B. Harshavardhan had promised to implement the Lift Irrigation Scheme during his campaign in the run up to the 2018 Assembly polls. The project involves pumping of water from Kabini Dam near Chamegowdanahundi in Saragur taluk to Nugu Dam through the Rising Main, a pipeline used for conveying the pump discharge of water.
