Gandhinagar, 4 June 2026: Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Gujarat on 5 June 2026. During the visit, he will inaugurate and lay foundation stones for development projects worth more than ₹18,777 crore jointly undertaken by the Government of India and the Government of Gujarat from Surat. These development works, which will accelerate the growth of South Gujarat, include the inauguration of eight projects under GIDC (Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation) developed at a cost of ₹1,063.43 crore.
Of these, Bharuch will receive projects worth over ₹894 crore, while Valsad will receive projects worth ₹169.3 crore. These projects will further strengthen infrastructure, effluent disposal systems and drainage management in the industrial regions of South Gujarat. Prime Minister to Inaugurate Six GIDC Projects Worth Over ₹894 Crore in Bharuch Gujarat has consistently remained at the forefront of India’s industrial development, with Bharuch emerging as a major hub for the chemical and petrochemical industries. As part of efforts to further strengthen Bharuch’s industrial capabilities, the Prime Minister will inaugurate six GIDC projects worth over ₹894 crore.
At the Dahej PCPIR industrial cluster, a 90 MLD capacity offshore and onshore effluent disposal pipeline has been constructed from the Saykha Pumping Station to the Dahej landfall point. The project includes the design, erection, testing and commissioning of civil structures, electro-mechanical components and PLC-SCADA systems, along with five years of operation and maintenance (O&M). This project, costing ₹474.61 crore, will significantly strengthen effluent disposal and management in the Dahej and Saykha industrial areas.
Notably, infrastructure facilities are being developed in the Dahej PCPIR area mainly for the development of chemical, textile, pharma, dyes and intermediates, and engineering industries. Currently, more than 1,000 industrial units are operational in this area. Additionally, key infrastructure facilities such as road, a storm water drainage network and a central drain have been developed at the Bulk Drug Park in Jambusar, Bharuch district, keeping in mind the requirements of pharmaceutical industries. This project, undertaken at a cost of ₹274.96 crore, will accelerate the infrastructure development of the Bulk Drug Park. The Prime Minister will also inaugurate a 30 MLD drainage pumping station for the Dahej-2 Industrial Estate.
Notably, the project includes a 30 MLD capacity drainage pumping station with a rising main from the Suva Pumping Station to the Final Pumping Station at Z-93 in the Dahej-2 Industrial Estate. This project will improve industrial drainage management and strengthen the integrated effluent conveyance network. Further, various infrastructure facilities have been developed in the Panoli Extension Industrial Estate, including flexible road pavement, cross-drainage works, water supply networks, compound walls, paver blocks, tree plantation and street lighting. These development works will provide enhanced infrastructure facilities within the industrial estate.
Among other projects, an intermediate booster pumping station has been constructed on the effluent transmission pipeline at Ankleshwar. This project will ensure efficient conveyance of effluents while also safeguarding environmental standards. Additionally, Natural Drain-2 in the Dahej-1 Industrial Estate has been upgraded to improve storm water carrying capacity, reduce the risk of waterlogging and strengthen the overall storm water drainage infrastructure of the estate. Inauguration of GIDC Projects Worth Over ₹169 Crore in Valsad In Sarigam, Valsad district, the Prime Minister will inaugurate two important GIDC projects. Under this, the capacity of the Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) at Sarigam has been expanded from 15 MLD to 25 MLD, thereby enhancing effluent treatment capacity and ensuring effective compliance with environmental standards. The project includes design, engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, testing, trial runs, as well as operation, maintenance and repair activities. In addition, an HDPE onshore and offshore outfall pipeline along with a sump and pumping station has been constructed in the Sarigam Industrial Estate. Under this project, an HDPE onshore and offshore pipeline network has been developed from the pumping station to the landfall chamber and onward to the deep-sea discharge point.
