INTRODUCTION |
|
Central Design Directorate was
established at Lucknow in the year 1961 for the specific need of
undertaking the designs of major hydro projects. To facilitate
the works of Tehri Dam Project a Design Circle was transferred
from Lucknow to Roorkee in the year 1971. To cater the need of
new multipurpose projects which were coming up for execution,
particularly in the Yamuna and Ganga Valley located in the
central Himalayan region, presently in Uttranchal, were also
assigned to this circle resulting in the creation of Irrigation
Design Organisation by expanding the only one Circle to ten
Circles under two Chief Engineers in the year 1978 at Roorkee.
The Irrigation Design Organisation
has been serving the state for the last three decades by
undertaking the planning and preparation of efficient and
econimical detailed designs and construction drawings of various
multipurpose, hydroelectric and Irrigation projects with the
help of well established infrastructure based on modern
techniques. |
