The projects cover a wide range of civic improvements including cement concrete roads, drainage systems, stormwater lines, bridges, anganwadi centres, community halls, cremation grounds, playgrounds, and public gardens.

Among the major schemes launched were a barrage and water filtration plant in Ward No. 7 worth Rs 50 million, and the construction of a paver block road from Khandelwal Pump to the rest house in Ward No. 3, costing Rs 10 million. Silawat also announced an additional Rs 50 million allocation for a new college building, a one-stop centre, and school furniture upgrades.

Looking ahead to Simhastha 2028, the minister outlined plans for a series of large-scale infrastructure initiatives, including a Metro rail project, a six-lane bypass, a new court building valued at Rs 360 million, an industrial training institute, a college library, railway station upgrades, and Rs 90 million in improvements at the Krishi Mandi. He also confirmed that the Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the Chandravatiganj to Pitruparvat road is currently in preparation.
