Abstract

Access to portable tap water is necessary for every household, ensuring basic health and hygiene. Water supply schemes are actively being executed in rural areas of the state to provide clean drinking water. The Jal Jeevan Mission, initiated on August 15th, 2019, aims to furnish 55 litres of water per person per day to every rural household by 2024 through Functional Household Tap Connections (FHTC), ensuring consistent pressure on a regular and long-term basis in all rural households and public institutions. As of 2019, out of approximately 18.93 crore rural households, only about 3.23 crore (17%) were equipped with tap water connections, thus indicating the need to extend water supply to 83% of rural households. The program also mandates the implementation of source sustainability measures, including recharge and reuse through greywater management.
