Tap water reaches 1.2 crore rural homes in UP as Jal Jeevan Mission nears completion

Uttar Pradesh has achieved nearly 90% coverage under the Jal Jeevan Mission, providing functional household tap connections to over 1.2 crore rural homes. This significant progress towards the 'Har Ghar Jal' target is driven by multi-village water supply schemes and local Paani Samitis. The initiative aims to ensure potable water for all, easing the burden on women and girls.
