The project implemented under the Centre's AMRUT scheme was designed, built and commissioned by VA Tech WABAG Ltd for the government-owned Tamil Nadu Water Supply and Drainage Board.

''The inauguration of the water treatment plant represents a crucial milestone in addressing the region's water needs,'' a company statement here said.

The plant, inaugurated by Minister of Youth Welfare and Sports Development Udhayanidhi Stalin, would serve as a vital lifeline for the eight town panchayats in Coimbatore district.
