Earlier today Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that 'Har Ghar Nal-Har Ghar Jal' campaign is going on to provide pure drinking water to 2.65 crore rural families of the state.
"Before the start of Jal Jeevan Mission, only 5.16 lakh families had access to pure drinking water from the tap. Due to continuous efforts, today the dream of pure drinking water has come true for more than 1.30 crore families," CM Yogi said.
"Jal Jeevan Mission is the priority of the respected Prime Minister. The Government of India is continuously reviewing its implementation.
