Bhopal's Kerwa, Kaliasot Reservoir Survey Data Handover Stalled Over ₹7.88 Lakh Payment Dispute, NGT Encroachment Assessment Delayed
A ₹7.88 lakh payment dispute has delayed the complete handover of digital survey data for Bhopal's Kerwa and Kaliasot reservoirs to an NGT-appointed committee. The surveys mapped full tank levels and buffer zones, while six Kaliasot locations had submerged boundary pillars. Verification of possible encroachments remains incomplete amid pending data submission.
