## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE FOR JAL SHAKTI (SHRI PRAHLAD SINGH PATEL)

(a) & (b) Since August, 2019 Government of India in partnership with States, is implementing Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) after subsuming erstwhile National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP)  to  make  provision  of  potable  water  to  every  rural  household  through  tap  water connection, by 2024.

At the time of announcement of Jal Jeevan Mission, out of 18.93 Crore rural households, 3.23 Crore (17%) households were reported to have tap water connections. So far, 6.00 Crore (31%) rural households have been provided with tap water connections in last 30 months. Thus, as of date, out of 19.32 Crore rural households in the country, 9.24 Crore (47.83%) households are reported to have tap water supply in their homes. The State/ UT, district & village-wise status of tap  water  connection  in  rural  households,  schools  and  anganwadi  centres  etc.  as  reported  by States/ UTs is in public domain and available on JJM dashboard at:

https://ejalshakti.gov.in/jjmreport/JJMIndia.aspx

Drinking  Water  being  a  State  subject,  it  is  States,  who  plan,  design,  approve  and  implement drinking  water  supply  schemes.  Government of India supplements the efforts of the States by providing  technical  and  financial  assistance.  As  such  details  of  individual  rural  water  supply projects, expenditure on their purification techniques and district-wise fund allocation/ utilization are not maintained at Government of India level.

The estimated outlay of the mission is Rs. 3.60 lakh Crore, out of which Central share is Rs. 2.08 lakh  Crore.  State/  UT-wise  expenditure  reported  under  centrally  sponsored  programme  JJM (erstwhile NRDWP) since 2014-15 is annexed.
