Kalahandi District Tenders

About Kalahandi District

Kalahandi district in south-western Odisha has historically high infrastructure development activity, with government tenders spanning irrigation canals, check dams, PMGSY rural roads, and tribal welfare construction. The district covers approximately 7,920 sq km and borders Nuapada, Nabarangpur, Koraput, Rayagada, Balangir, and Kandhamal. Kalahandi's river systems and agriculture-dependent economy mean that water resource and irrigation tenders are particularly prominent. The Water Resources Department, Minor Irrigation Department, and Rural Works Division are among the most active tender-issuing bodies. Contractors familiar with hilly and semi-arid terrain will find strong recurring work in Kalahandi.
