The company received the Letter of Acceptance (LoA) from the Ken-Betwa Link Project Authority on November 28, 2024.

The Department of Water Resources, River Development, and Ganga Rejuvenation (DoWR, RD & GR) is overseeing the project, which aligns with its mission to develop, conserve, and manage water resources as a national priority. This landmark initiative is expected to play a vital role in the socio-economic upliftment of the region.
