"Prime Minister's vision for farmer’s welfare and empowerment, and his commitment to prioritize long pending projects of National importance, brought much-needed focus on the project." 

Several other projects including the construction of roads, improvement in hospital facilities, expressways, and many other infrastructure projects are getting inaugurated the day after another. The development of Uttar Pradesh has been speeded up.

The release by PMO mentions that project was brought under Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana, which aimed to complete this project in a time-bound manner."In this endeavor, innovative solutions were found for new land acquisition to construct new canals and fill the critical gaps in the project, and also for resolving the pending litigation related to the previous land acquisition. The renewed focus on the project has resulted in the project being completed in only about four years." said the release.
