Jaipur: Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma on Sunday said the government aims to provide clean drinking water through taps to all households in the state under the Jal Jeevan Mission.
He said that the pace of providing tap connections to households should be increased by setting daily targets, so as to ensure that Rajasthan becomes one of the leading states of the country for Jal Jeevan Mission.
He was addressing the review meeting of Jal Jeevan Mission at the Chief Minister's Office.
He alleged that there were irregularities in Jal Jeevan Mission during the tenure of the previous government.
He said that the work done under the mission should be monitored by preparing a daily progress report. To facilitate this, he directed to appoint division wise nodal officers and authorized administrative officers at the district level for monitoring.
He also directed that a monitoring system should be established to ensure regular meetings of the Jal Jeevan Mission Committee at the district level.
He said the success of the mission largely depends on how the water source is managed. Therefore, water sources should be identified by focusing on ERCP, IGNP, ground water etc.
He asked to review the past works and take strict action if any irregularities are found. He directed that a survey report should be prepared on the status of water supply in the tanks. He also directed to release electricity connections for tube wells and assess the quality and depth of pipelines.
