(a) & (b) Government of India is committed to make provision for safe & potable tap water supply in adequate quantity, of prescribed quality and on a regular & long-term basis to all rural households in the country. Towards this end, the Government of India has launched the Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM), being implemented in partnership with states, in August 2019. Drinking Water is a state subject, and hence, the responsibility of planning, approval, implementation, operation, and maintenance of drinking water supply schemes, including those under the Jal Jeevan Mission, lies with State/UT Governments. The Government of India supports the States by providing technical and financial assistance.

Significant  progress  has  been  made  in  the  country  since  the  launch  of  Jal  Jeevan  Mission, towards enhancing access to tap water to rural households. At the start of Jal Jeevan Mission in August  2019,  only  3.23  Crore  (16.8%)  rural  households  were  reported  to  have  tap  water connections. So far, as reported by States/ UTs as on 10.12.2023, around 10.54 Crore additional rural households have been provided with tap water connections. Thus, as on 10.12.2023, out of  19.24  Crore  rural  households  in  the  country,  approximately  13.77  Crore  (71.62%) households are reported to have tap water supply in their homes.

Similarly, in Uttar Pradesh, at the start of Jal Jeevan Mission in August 2019, only 5.16 Lakhs (1.96%)  rural  households  were  reported  to  have  tap  water  connections.  As  on  10.12.2023, around 1.87 Crore additional rural households have been provided with tap water connections in  the  State.  Thus,  as  on  10.12.2023,  out  of  2.58  Crore  rural  households  in  the  State, approximately 1.82 Crore (70.60%) households are reported to have tap water supply in their homes. District wise tap connections provided in the State under JJM, is at Annex .

(c) Under JJM, Government of India allocates the funds to States/ UTs, each financial year. Further allocation of funds within the districts is made by States/ UTs. The details of funds available and expenditure done under JJM by the State Government, is given below:
