With the rapid urbanization of Nagpur, the water supply challenges also increased. To overcome these challenges, in 2012, Nagpur Municipal Corporation chose Veolia, making Nagpur the first city in India with a fully pressurized 24X7 drinking water supply system. This concession contract
was implemented under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JnNURM).
This 25 years concession contract includes rehabilitating water production and distribution infrastructure and other integrated services to provide safe drinking water to the inhabitants of Nagpur city.
