Centre to Reproduce Bhagiratha Project !

Siddipet Comprehensive Drinking Water Scheme (tap to each household) conceived and implemented in the year 1996 by the then MLA of Siddipet and present Honourable Chief Minister Shri K. Chandrasekhar Rao garu.

Comprehensive drinking water grid implemented in Gujarat state by the then Chief Minister and present Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi garu.

Scope

The Project comprises 26 segments in 30 districts
Stages involved in the entire Water Supply chain.



Under the Telangana Drinking Water Supply Project, a mammoth 1.30 lakh km stretch of pipelines would be laid to quench the thirst of Telangana towns and villages apart from providing water for the industrial needs. For this project, surface water of perennial rivers and major reservoirs would be utilised as a raw water source.Taken up with an estimated cost of Rs 35,000 crore, Mission Bhagiratha is intended to ensure that no female member of a household would need to walk miles to carry a pot of water. Under the this flagship programme, it is conceived to provide 100 litres per capita per day (LPCD) treated and piped water to every household in rural areas, 135 LPCD in municipalities and 150 LPCD in municipal corporations. This pioneering scheme has been commended by the Government of India for other States to emulate.



The Prime Minister's visit to Telangana assumes importance as it is his first after becoming the Prime Minister.

Addressing a massive gathering at Komatibanda village in Gajwel constituency of Medak district, Modi assured Telangana of all necessary support in the state's development activities.

He said the 21st century would be India's and the ongoing reforms and development would take the country to new highs.

State Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao while thanking Modi and the Centre for supporting the State's projects, taken up with an outlay of Rs 70,000 crore, said the youngest State is now on a rapid growth path.
