A second IGNP job is live near Bikaner: ₹107.54 crore to renovate and rebuild the damaged lined water course of the Birsalpur Branch, with bids open until 7 August 2026.
What needs rebuilding
The Chief Engineer, IGNP at Bikaner has floated a percentage-rate contract to renovate and reconstruct the damaged lined water course of the Birsalpur Branch and its system, from RD 0.00 to RD 114.00, offtaking from RD 859.00(R) of the IGMN under IGNP Stage-II. Lined canals crack, silt up and lose section over the years; this restores 114 RD of the branch back to a proper carrying capacity. At ₹107.54 Cr, it’s a solid civil job — and it runs alongside the IGNP balancing reservoir tender out on the same reference, so a contractor working the Bikaner belt has two IGNP packages to weigh.
Machines for canal restoration
Canal rehabilitation is earthwork and lining. Excavators clear silt and cut back failed sections, tippers haul spoil, and graders shape the bed and banks. Then the lining crews move in with concrete — mixers, pumps and the paving gear that lays canal lining across long, repetitive runs. Dewatering keeps the working reach dry. It’s steady, spread-out work over 114 RD, which suits owners who can keep machines moving along the branch rather than parked at one pour.
Terms to note
The EMD is ₹2.15 Cr with exemption allowed, and the tender fee ₹30,000, on a three-cover system with 90-day validity. Percentage-rate pricing rewards a contractor who knows canal earthwork and lining rates, so read the BOQ and walk the reach early.
