Additionally, Rs.735 million will fund a water bowser, and Rs.170 million will support the construction of a new fire station in Kamothe.

Drainage, Education, and Security Enhancements PMC has dedicated Rs.1.78 billion to underground drainage and sewage management, including Rs400 million for a 15 MLD wastewater recycling plant and Rs.254.9 million for a 6.5 MLD sewage treatment center.
