MB water by July: Smitha

Secretary Smitha Sabharwal today instructed the officials concerned to supply purified water under Mission Bhagiratha Scheme to every household by July.

During a review meeting on the flagship MB Scheme, she said the works should be completed at the earliest. Special plans of action will be implemented once 10 days with a focus on quality in the works. The materials related should be stored at police stations and marketing godowns and quality should be maintained in the works, she said.
The officials will be held responsible if the material loss occurred. Smitha also said the ongoing works of OHSR structures should be completed by June and the rest by July. As part of Intra works, roads dug up should be closed immediately and resolve the issues with continuous communication. An alternative plan has to be in place to ensure water supply to the people living on hillocks and nearby, she said. (NSS)
