Since August, 2019, Government of India in partnership with States is implementing Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) after subsuming erstwhile National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP), to make provision of potable water at the service level of 55 litre per capita per day (lpcd) to every rural household through tap water connection, by 2024. At the time of announcement of Jal Jeevan Mission, out of 18.93 Crore rural households, 3.23 Crore (17%) households were reported to have tap water connections. So far, 5.72 Crore (29.63%) rural households have been provided with tap water connections in last 29 months. Thus, as of date, out of 19.28 Crore rural households in the country, 8.95 Crore (46.41%) households are reported to have tap water supply in their homes. The State/ UT-wise status of tap water connection in rural households across the country is at Annex-I.
Further, as reported by States/ UTs, as on 07.02.2022, out of 17.01 lakh rural habitations of the country, 13.22 lakh (77.68%) habitations having 77.90% population have provision of potable drinking water with supply level of more than 40 litre per capita per day (lpcd) and 3.44 lakh (20.24%) habitations having 20.39% population with supply level of less than 40 lpcd with sources at a reasonable distance and 0.35 lakh (2.08%) rural habitations having 1.71% population are reported to have water quality issues in drinking water sources.
