UPGRADATION OF STPs

Posted On: 27 MAR 2025 5:40PM by PIB Delhi

Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) was launched on 25 June 2015 in selected 500 cities (485 cities including 15 merged cities) and towns across the country. The Mission focuses on development of basic infrastructure, in the selected cities and towns, in the sectors of water supply; sewerage and septage management; etc.  Further, AMRUT 2.0 was launched on 01 October 2021 in all Urban Local Bodies (ULBs)/ cities, enabling the cities to become 'self-reliant' and 'water secure'. Providing universal coverage of sewerage and septage management in 500 AMRUT cities is one of the major focus areas of AMRUT 2.0.

Under AMRUT, 890 sewerage/ septage management projects worth ₹34,505 crore have been grounded through which 4,447 Million Litre per Day (MLD) sewage treatment capacity (new/augmented) has been created of which 1,437 MLD capacity has been developed for recycle/reuse. The State-wise details of Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) under AMRUT is given in Annexure-I.

Under AMRUT 2.0, 592 sewerage/septage projects worth ₹67,607.67 crore have been approved by Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) so far. Approved projects cover 6,739 MLD sewage treatment capacity (new/augmentation) of which 2,093 MLD sewage treatment capacity is for recycle/reuse. The State-wise details of STP under AMRUT 2.0 is given in Annexure-II.

MoHUA has also launched "Jal Hi AMRIT" initiative under AMRUT 2.0 reforms, which aims to incentivize States and Union Territories (UTs) to efficiently manage sewage treatment plants for recyclable treated water meeting environmental standards on sustained basis. The focus of this initiative is to build capacity and incentivizing qualitative improvements in the treated discharge effluent. This initiative is targeted to create opportunities for suitable reuse of water, contributing to the overall goal of water security through increasing water availability under the Mission.

The reply was given by THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS SHRI TOKHAN SAHU in Lok Sabha Today.
