 70 years passed by, since India became independent, yet out of 19 crore rural households, only about 3 crore had a portable tap water connections in their households. Women and children had to tread miles to fetch water for daily use. However, with the visionary leadership of Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, an ambitious project, Jalla Jeevan Mission was started in 2019 to provide functional household tap connections to every household in India. Under the Jalla Jeevan Mission, functional household tap connections have now reached to more than 11 crore households in the country. Jalla Jeevan Mission is termed as Mani Manige Ganga in Karnataka. In this project, in just over 3 years, 65 lakh households were given clean, safe drinking water in rural Karnataka. Dharavada, a parched earth steaming with culture, benefited from Jalla Jeevan Mission. The Dharavada district multi-village scheme, being initiated, draws water from the Renuka Sagar Reservoir, built across river Malaprabha, as the district largely depended on groundwater. This new MVS will ensure the water sustainability to the rural households. This MVS, being built at a project cost of over Rs.1040 crores, will benefit over 7 taluks. This ensures the district become water-saturated soon. Over 9,30,000 people from over 2 lakh households will be provided with portable water. As the Honourable Prime Minister lays the foundation stone to this MVS, the double-engine government ensures that the living conditions of women and children in Dharavada improves hugely, as the water flows through the pipes to every rural household in Dharavada district. Smiles filled with joy are guaranteed in its citizens' faces.
