Pench Diversion Project in Chhindwara

The manifesto listed the Pench Diversion Project in Chhindwara. India Investment Grid lists the Pench Diversion Project as a water-resources irrigation project in Madhya Pradesh with project status marked as Completion Certificate or COD. Earlier CAG material confirms the project’s structure and irrigation objective, while later reporting shows rehabilitation issues for displaced families, which is a serious caveat but not the same as lack of project commissioning. Since the project status is officially marked as COD, the core project-completion promise is treated as fulfilled. This verdict should be revisited if official sources later show that irrigation delivery to the command area has not begun. Budget: project completion status is evidenced, but no full final utilisation statement was found in this pass.
