Mr.Venkat, Thsi drinking water supply project was signed in exchange with Bangalore water supply project in 1998. The major aid for Hoge project comes from Jaan Bank. But this project was suspended in 1999 as Japan imposed sanctions like other developed countries due to India's Pokhran tests. After a gap of 9 years, Japan bank has agreed to aid this project now. Its not TN govt that was responsible for suspending this project but NDA's Pokhran tests.
