# Rs 83-crore sewage plant under Namami Godavari nears finish 2026-08-10T05:56:37+00:00 | India | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet A Rs 83-crore sewage treatment plant under the Centre's Namami Godavari programme is in its final construction phase in Rajamahendravaram. Officials from the Municipal Engineering Department said civil works are complete, and electro-mechanical equipment installation will finish by month-end, with trial runs expected next month. The 50 MLD capacity plant will treat sewage from the city's drainage network through dedicated pipelines before discharging clean water into the Godavari. Rajamahendravaram Urban MLA Adireddy Srinivas called the facility a game changer that will significantly reduce untreated sewage and plastic waste entering the river. The existing 30 MLD plant is unable to handle the current load. Officials project sewage generation will reach 110 MLD by 2030, and proposals for a second phase have been prepared, pending additional Central funding. ## Coverage - newindianexpress.com Tags: AMRUT 2.0, Godavari pollution, infrastructure, Namami Godavari, Rajamahendravaram, sewage treatment plant Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/rs-83-crore-sewage-plant-under-namami-godavari-nears-finish/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
