Chief Ministers Review Jal Jeevan Mission Progress
Two Chief Ministers, Omar Abdullah from Jammu and Kashmir and Mohan Yadav from Madhya Pradesh, held meetings to check how well the Jal Jeevan Mission is doing.
This mission is about making sure everyone has clean drinking water.
In Jammu and Kashmir, they talked about using special pipes called HDPE pipes and made sure everything follows the right rules.
They also discussed how to keep track of all the pipes and water systems on a special website called the PM Gati Shakti portal.
The meeting included a detailed look at how well each district is doing in providing water connections to every home.
The Chief Minister said it's very important to use good materials and do the work properly.
In Madhya Pradesh, the Chief Minister directed officials to prepare an action plan to ensure that sewage water does not contaminate drinking water sources.
Madhya Pradesh aims to complete the mission by March 2027, earlier than the national deadline of December 2028.
They have already provided water connections to more than 80 lakh rural families and achieved 72.54% of their target.
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah reviewed the progress of the Jal Jeevan Mission in Jammu and Kashmir, focusing on universal access to safe drinking water and the use of HDPE pipes.
Officials discussed the procurement and supply status of pipe materials and the mapping of the water supply infrastructure on the PM Gati Shakti portal.
The review included a comprehensive district-wise assessment of functional household tap connection (FHTC) coverage across all 20 districts in Jammu and Kashmir.
