VA Tech Wabag Wins ₹380 Crore Order from BWSSB for Water Plants
Imagine a company, VA Tech Wabag, getting a big job from Bangalore's water company.
They're going to build special cleaning plants for dirty water.
These plants will clean the water so it can be used again, like for factories.
They'll also make energy from the leftover sludge and use the sun to dry it, which is good for the environment.
The project will take about two and a half years to build and then they'll keep the plants running for 10 years.
This helps make sure Bangalore has enough clean water and uses less energy.

The order is for the design, build, and operation of wastewater treatment plants.
The project includes tertiary treatment facilities, biogas generation, and solar sludge drying beds.
