Prime minister Narendra Modi virtually inaugurated the Rashtriya Jal Jeevan Kosh and Jal Jeevan Mission mobile application today at 11am.
Jal Jeevan Mission’s mission is more than merely providing water to the people. It is also a significant decentralisation movement. It is a women’s and village-led movement. “People’s movement and involvement are its key pillars,” Modi remarked during the conference.
Praising it as a village-driven and women-driven movement, PM Modi said, “On the Jal Jeevan Mission app, every detail regarding this movement will be available in one place.” Prime Minister Modi said that since the launch of the Jal Jeevan Mission in 2019, two crore households have been connected with water connections. “Today, every household in about 1.25 lakh villages in about 80 districts of the country is getting tap water,” he added.
In a tweet, Modi said, “that on the occasion he would be interacting with the recipients of the mission and will focus on areas which need improvement. His tweet read as “I would interact with Gram Panchayats and Pani Samitis. Jal Jeevan Mission App and Rashtriya Jal Jeevan Kosh would be launched.”
