Good example
The Water Resources Minister cited the example of Halagali village, Mudhol taluk in Bagalkot district, where the consumption of water, which was hitherto to the extent of 15 lakh litres, decreased to 5 lakh litres after installation of meters, thus saving 10 lakh litres of water and also bringing income of Rs 10 lakh to the panchyat.
Bagalkot ZP CEO Bhoobalan explained the salient features and progress of the Jal Jivan Mission. He said 108 per cent progress had been achieved till December 26.
Bhoobalan said that out of 337 projects, 293 have been completed, thus registering a 77 per cent progress. “Forty-eight projects have been completed at the village level. A detailed project report is being prepared for the remaining 147,” he added.
Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai complimented the progress made by the Jal Jivan Mission in Bagalkot district and praised Bagalkot ZP CEO Bhoobalan for his commendable work.
