THE Karnataka Urban Development and Coastal Environmental Management Project (KUDCEMP) has revised allocations in the Mangalore sub-project with focus on the extension of underground drainage (UGD) system in the city.

Of the allocation of Rs 967.91 crore in the 10 coastal towns under KUDCEMP, Rs 306.29 crore has been allocated to the Mangalore sub-project.

Addressing presspersons here on Thursday, the Deputy Project Director, KDCEMP, Mr J.R. Lobo, said that allocation for UGD has been increased from the earlier Rs 48.55 crore to Rs 135.73 crore in the revised allocation.
