NBCC signs six MoUs: West Bengal urban projects

(New Delhi, 13.11.2026 – By NewsIP Bureau:)

NBCC has signed six memoranda of understanding with West Bengal’s Department of Urban Development and Municipal Affairs and several state authorities for urban projects across the state. The proposed work includes redevelopment in Kolkata, riverfront and river ghat development, public toilets and a feasibility study for government housing. The MoUs were signed in the presence of UD&MA Minister Agnimitra Paul and NBCC Chairman and Managing Director K. P. Mahadevaswamy, along with state government dignitaries and NBCC officials.

Projects span Kolkata, Howrah and Nabadwip

The Kolkata Metropolitan Development Authority’s MoU covers redevelopment of the College Street area and Chinatown at Tangra. Chandernagore Municipal Corporation will work on riverfront development. A separate agreement with the Department of Urban Development and Municipal Affairs provides for a feasibility study linked to redevelopment of government housing in the BMC area.

The State Urban Development Agency’s project is to provide public toilets across various urban areas. The two river ghat projects are with Howrah Municipal Corporation and Nabadwip Municipality, respectively. The MoUs therefore set out a mix of area redevelopment, civic facilities and river-related work rather than a single project in one city.

The MoUs are described as being in the normal course of NBCC’s business. Until project costs and details are disclosed, the scale of the work and its overall financial value remain unclear.
