New Delhi, Aug 19: The Lieutenant Governor of Ladakh, Kavinder Gupta, today met the Hon\u2019ble Union Minister of Power and Minister of Housing & Urban Affairs, Manohar Lal Khattar, in New Delhi and held a detailed discussion on major developmental projects of UT Ladakh.
\nThe Lt Governor apprised the Union Minister about two landmark 24\u00d77 water supply projects for Leh and Kargil towns, costing Rs 334.72 crore and Rs 373.17 crore respectively, which have been approved by the State High Powered Steering Committee (SHPSC) of UT Ladakh and subsequently cleared by the 12th Apex Committee under AMRUT 2.0 held on April 17, 2025. He highlighted that the projects have been included in the State Water Action Plan (SWAP) with a committed Central Assistance of Rs 62 crore (Rs 31 crore per project), while the UT Administration will manage the balance funding.<\/p>\n

The Lt Governor underlined that Ladakh is witnessing a drastic depletion of groundwater, creating a huge hue and cry among the people and leaving the future generations vulnerable to a water crisis. He stressed that this grave issue needs to be addressed as a priority, and the sanctioned water supply projects are a decisive step towards ensuring water security and sustainability in the region.
\nThe Lt Governor further briefed that as per the Apex Committee\u2019s decisions, the total allocation of Central Assistance for Ladakh under AMRUT 2.0 stands at Rs 128 crore, in a 90:10 funding ratio. Of this, Rs 58.5 crore has already been released as the first tranche and Rs 69.5 crore as the second tranche to support these projects.<\/p>\n

The LT Governor also briefed the Hon\u2019ble Union Minister about the demand for an Urban Housing project under PMAY-U 2.0 in the Union Territory of Ladakh, emphasising the need to strengthen housing infrastructure to meet the growing requirements of Leh and Kargil towns.
\nIn addition, the Lt Governor also raised issues pertaining to the MNRE Project at Pang-Kharnak and other ongoing initiatives under the Ministry of Power in Ladakh, seeking continued assistance and intervention to expedite their completion. He stressed that these projects are closely aligned with the Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister\u2019s vision of making Ladakh a carbon-neutral region and sustainable energy producer, thereby supporting the ecologically fragile region while meeting its developmental aspirations.
\nThe Hon\u2019ble Union Minister appreciated the efforts of the UT Administration in prioritising critical urban and power sector projects and assured the full support of the Government of India in addressing Ladakh\u2019s unique developmental challenges.
\nThe Lt Governor reaffirmed that the UT Administration will make all efforts to ensure the speedy and successful execution of the sanctioned projects, in line with the vision of Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister for sustainable and inclusive development in Ladakh.<\/p>\n
