Srinagar Pauri Water Tender: Re-organising a Pumping Supply Scheme under World Bank Funding

Uttarakhand Jal Sansthan is re-organising the drinking water pumping supply scheme for Srinagar in Pauri Garhwal under World Bank funding, and the Srinagar Pauri water tender closes at 5:00 PM on 5 November 2026.

Re-organisation, not a new scheme

The notice reads re-organization of Srinagar drinking water pumping supply scheme under World Bank. Re-organisation of an existing hill scheme usually means a new or upgraded intake and pumping stations, replaced rising mains, additional reservoirs and a rebuilt distribution network, with the town staying supplied throughout. The Superintending Engineer at Pauri Garhwal is the inviting authority under the General Manager, Garhwal, and the Chief General Manager for Drinking Water, reference 485/E-Tender/2026-27 dated 12.10.26.

Srinagar in Pauri Garhwal sits on the Alaknanda. Pumping schemes in that terrain lift water several hundred metres, so pipe class, pump selection and the civil works for pump houses carry more weight than the length of pipeline.

No published value, so work from the deposit

The portal shows neither a tender value nor a work period. The EMD is ₹87,50,000, which at 2 per cent points to roughly ₹43.75 crore. That is a guide only, and the real figure is in the bid document. The fee is ₹5,900, the form of contract is item rate, and bids open at 1:00 PM on 6 November.

World Bank funded work brings its own procurement and reporting conditions, which are worth reading before you commit. Uttarakhand has a lot of water work out at once: the Haldwani, Bhimtal and Bhowali schemes and the Bageshwar and Gopeshwar pumping schemes are both live.

Hill pipelines, small machines, long hauls

On a Garhwal scheme the machine that earns most is the smallest one that can reach the alignment. Compact excavators and backhoe loaders cut pipe trenches on slopes where nothing larger will stand, and material has to be relayed up by small tippers or tractors. Pump houses and reservoirs need concrete mixers on site rather than ready mix, and a pick-and-carry crane to set pumps, valves and tank components. Working season is short, so the mobilisation plan matters more than the headline rate.
