Sorry for the confusion, I actually wanted to ask about the schedule that I
have written in my proposal.
For example I have written that by 26th June I will finish the bitmap
implementation. Although I'm sure
that it won't take more than 26 days but in case it takes more than that or
less, then is it possible to tweak the schedule?

I do have linux installed alongside windows (dual boot). But I mostly use
Linux for testing cross platform applications or writing code specific to
Linux.
It's just that I have used Visual Studio since I started programming and I
am most comfortable with it. But if it is necessary I will switch to Linux.

Yes, I use cmake.
