Secunderabad Cantonment's non-functional sewer network will receive ₹246.92 crore for upgrades to improve connectivity and prevent sewage overflow, part of an infrastructure package under the EVI scheme.

• A sewer network in Secunderabad Cantonment, built over 15 years ago under a Japan-funded project, is set to be revived with a ₹246.92-crore project.
• The project aims to connect gaps in the existing sewer system to make it fully functional and prevent untreated sewage discharge into open nalas.
• The upgrade is part of the EVI scheme, using funds from Defence land compensation for elevated corridor projects, with other nala development works planned later.
