A ₹437.69 crore lift irrigation scheme with a full pipe distribution network is open under the Gosikhurd project, and the Ghodazari lift irrigation tender closes at 5:45 PM on 18 November 2026.
Water lifted off km 55 of the Ghodazari canal
The Water Resources Department at Nagpur wants engineering, procurement and construction of a lift irrigation scheme for Ghodazari sub branch number 3, taking off from km 55 of the Ghodazari Branch Canal under the Gosikhurd project. The pipe distribution network is part of the same contract. The Ghodazari Canal Division at Nagbhid will run it, reference E-Tender Notice No. 04/2026-27, and the portal allows 730 days.
Gosikhurd has been under construction for decades and the distribution side is where the work is now. Pressurised pipe networks replace open field channels, so the quantity here is pipe laying, pump houses and rising mains rather than long canal excavation.
Terms, and why the deadline is short
The tender value on the portal is ₹4,37,68,68,419. EMD is ₹2,18,84,000 with no exemption and the fee is ₹11,800, on a lump-sum form of contract. Published on 4 November and closing on 18 November, this gives two weeks, so start the bid file now if you are serious.
This is a trenching job at heart. Excavators with the right bucket width and backhoe loaders in the narrow field stretches move most of the earth, with tippers carting surplus and bedding material. Pump houses and jack wells need transit mixers and a pick and carry crane to lower pumps and valves. A compactor behind the pipe gang matters more than people expect, because poor backfill is what brings a pipeline contractor back to site in year three. Chandrapur and Bhandara based gangs are well placed.
