Rajasthan began construction of a 2.3-km Chambal aqueduct under the revised Parvati–Kalisindh–Chambal link (integrated with the ERCP), with ₹2,230 crore allocated for phase one and a June 2028 completion target.

Why it matters
The aqueduct is a physical delivery asset that enables drinking and irrigation water transfers to 17 districts, shifting the project from planning to execution and tightening downstream readiness timelines for district-level distribution and irrigation schemes. The June 2028 target sets a concrete window for procurement, land/interface clearances, and integration with connected dams and canal networks that will receive link water. The December 2024 Rajasthan–Madhya Pradesh MoA reduces inter-state execution risk for the transfer component, making dependent water-supply and irrigation investments more bankable within the ERCP-linked program.
