JALANIDHI
More than 50 lakh people in 240 grama panchayat in the state are expected to benefit from the rural water supply and sanitation schemes under the second phase of the world bank funded Jalanidhi project.
The respective beneficiary groups and the local Grama panchayat would be joint owners of the schemes. The world Bank had cleared a list of 30 panchayats where phase two would be rolled out first. There would be a major thrust on rainwater harvesting and joint ventures with the Kerala Water Authority in setting up" multi-grama panchat water supply schemes.
Each project would take a minimum of 24 months to get completed. In the first phase, 3694 minor water supply schemes were implemented in 112 Grama Panchayats. Close to 12 lakh people benefited.
