Planning

Detailed Project Report: For the detailed project report, the government asked the Ahmedabad based Centre for Environmental Planning and Technology (CEPT) to create the detailed project report (DPR) which was approved by the Central Government earlier. The Government of Odisha has sanctioned 460 crore for this BRTS project in Bhubaneswar under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM). The decision was taken at a meeting of Central Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee (CSMC) of ministry of urban development in New Delhi. [1]Bhubaneswar Development Authority Commissioner, Injeti Srinivas, at a high-level meeting recently, finalised this BRTS project and asked the Works Department of Odisha to go ahead with all the processes needed. The tendering process for the civil construction barricading two lane dedicated roads and bus stops are going on. The BRTS in Bhubaneswar is expected to be completed by the end of 2017. [2]

gollark: That doesn't matter for GPU upgrades though.
gollark: It's LGA1151 (v1), given the CPU.
gollark: The best CPU you could get on that board is probably then the i7-7700K, which is at least two generations outdated at this point so probably horribly expensive.
