The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) invites consultants to prepare detailed project reports (DPRs) for major flood-protection works in Mumbai. The estimated value of the flood-control projects is about ₹7,345.9–₹7,346 crore, while the cost to hire consultants for preparing the DPRs is cited as around ₹110 crore.
Both reports describe the BMC’s move as an early procurement step aimed at developing technical documentation before implementation. The Times of India article focuses on the overall project budget and the consultant appointment cost, while Swarajya similarly emphasizes the invitation process and the DPR preparation requirement linked to the large flood-protection outlay. Neither source provides details here about specific locations, timelines, or the technical design choices that will be included in the DPRs.
