Two sides of the Parwan river in Jhalawar are about to be connected all year round, and the ₹31.84 crore Parwan river bridge tender closes at 6:00 PM on 20 November 2026.
A high level bridge, which is the point
Rajasthan PWD has tendered construction of a high level bridge over the Parwan river near Khejda village, between Manoharthana Road and Dewri Jagir in Jhalawar district. The chain of command runs Chief Engineer and Additional Secretary, Additional Chief Engineer Kota, Superintending Engineer Jhalawar and Executive Engineer Aklera, reference ACE PWD ZONE KOTA NITNO-23/2026-27. The published value is ₹31,83,50,000 on a percentage rate contract with 450 days.
High level means the deck sits above the highest flood level, so the crossing stays open through the monsoon. The alternative, a submersible causeway, cuts villages off for weeks each year. In the Parwan valley, where the river rises fast off the Malwa plateau, that difference decides whether the road is usable in July.
Deposit, fee and who wins work like this
EMD is ₹63,67,000, about 2 per cent of the estimate, with exemption allowed, and the fee is ₹20,000. Bids open at 3:00 PM on 25 November. Fifteen months for a single bridge is sensible rather than generous, because the substructure has to be built in the dry season and a missed window costs a full year.
Bridge packages at this size usually go to specialist bridge contractors from the Kota and Jhalawar belt rather than to general road firms. Rajasthan has the Sadri bypass tender in Pali and the Mahwa Rajgarh four-laning tender open as well.
Everything hangs on the dry season
The programme is set by the river. Foundations and piers have to go in between October and June, which means a piling rig, excavators for the open foundations and coffer work, and dewatering pumps on site from day one. A crane handles reinforcement cages, shuttering and then the girders or segments for the superstructure. Concrete has to arrive on schedule for large pours, so transit mixers and a reliable batching arrangement matter more than almost anything else. Approaches and embankments at either end need a compactor and a backhoe loader.
