The ‘Prachar Rath’ will spread awareness about water testing, hygiene and sanitation, Pani Samitis’ role and water conservation provisioned under Jal Jeevan Mission.

While speaking on the occasion, the DC said the JJM is one of the greatest flagship programmes of Government of India to provide tap water connection to every household. He said 299 water supply schemes, with 820 works, have been sanctioned for covering the length and breadth of Kathua district. He informed that as many as 751 works have been tendered for the construction of tubewells, borewells, besides laying pipe network to provide drinking water supply to all households in line with the Prime Minister’s resolve to provide “Har Ghar Nal se Jal”. He expressed hope that the water supply schemes coming up under JJM will resolve the shortage of drinking water supply in the district especially in kandi and hilly areas of the district.

The DC exhorted the stakeholders, including Pani Samitis, to understand in detail their role and duties and adopt best practices of water management and rain water harvesting. He further motivated them to play their role in a missionary zeal towards fulfilling the vision of JJM. He said people need to owe the responsibility at individual and collective fronts in preserving water bodies and using water judiciously in view of scarce availability of water resources.
