'24/7 water supply for lutyens' delhi': ndmc unveils 'game-changing' initiative; details

New Delhi: Key water infrastructure projects aimed at enhancing the quality and round-the-clock availability of water supply for Lutyens’ Delhi residents were unveiled by New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) Vice Chairman Kuljeet Singh Chahal on Monday.

As per a PTI report, an official statement noted that these initiatives align with the Jal Jeevan Mission and Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT 2.0) of the Central government, marking a significant step toward ensuring safe drinking water for every household.

Chahal stated, “The NDMC has launched the first phase of its 24×7 water supply initiative in the Vinay Marg area, intending to provide round-the-clock filtered water,” as quoted by PTI.

The statement also mentioned that the Rs 1.80 crore pilot project is expected to lay the groundwork for citywide implementation upon successful completion. It further highlighted a Rs 12.73 crore initiative to provide individual piped water connections to 9,386 households in 32 JJ clusters in the NDMC area, focusing on inclusivity.

This effort has been divided into three geographical categories for efficient execution, with work on two categories set to commence by March 2025, while plans for the third are underway, the report added.

To tackle water scarcity and boost storage capacity during peak summer months, the NDMC plans to construct two underground water storage units at Navyug School, Sarojini Nagar, and Talkatora Cricket Ground, the statement read.

“The projects underscore NDMC's dedication to public welfare, sustainability, and creating a reliable water supply infrastructure for all, including marginalized communities in JJ clusters,” the statement added, as quoted by PTI.
