Overview

We execute new canal construction and canal repair works for state irrigation departments, including clearing, desilting, bank reinforcement, and structural repair of deteriorated canal sections. Our work is aligned with PMKSY and state Jal Shakti scheme requirements.

Why This Matters

  • 01

    Canal irrigation is the backbone of agricultural water supply in UP and MP - any efficiency loss directly reduces crop yield for thousands of farmers.

  • 02

    Deteriorated canal banks cause embankment breaches, flooding adjacent agricultural land and destroying standing crops.

  • 03

    Desilted and repaired canals restore original capacity, improving water delivery to tail-end commands that are often underserved.

  • 04

    Government scheme compliance (PMKSY, Jal Shakti) requires certified canal works to unlock departmental funding and scheme benefits.

  • 05

    Properly constructed canals reduce operation and maintenance burden on departments for 15-20 years after completion.

Work Scope

  • New canal excavation (earthen and pucca)
  • Canal bank earthwork and compaction
  • Desilting and deepening of existing canals
  • Stone pitching and slope protection
  • Head regulator and cross structures
  • Canal rejuvenation under government schemes
