So  far,  as  reported  by  States/  UTs  as  on  04.12.2023, around 10.48 Crore additional rural households have been provided with tap water connections. Thus, as on 04.12.2023, out of 19.24 Crore rural households in the country, around 13.72 Crore (71.32%) households are reported to have tap water supply in their homes.

As reported  by  the  Government  of  Karnataka  in  Integrated  Management  Information  System (IMIS) of the Department as on 04.12.2023, 71.65 rural households have been provided  with drinking water connection in the state of Karnataka. District-wise information is Annexed.

Government of India supplements the efforts of the States by providing technical and financial assistance under this mission. State Government is advised to provide tap water connection to all the rural households within the Mission Period.
