Jal Jeevan Mission, is envisioned to provide safe and adequate drinking water through individual household tap connections by 2024 to all households in rural India.
The programme will also implement source sustainability measures as mandatory elements, such as recharge and reuse through grey water management, water conservation, rainwater harvesting.
<br>
The Jal Jeevan Mission will be based on a community approach to water and will include extensive Information, Education and communication as a key component of the mission.
Objectives:
1. The broad objectives of the Mission are to provide FHTC to every rural household, schools, anganwadi centres, GP buildings, health centres, wellness centres and community buildings and to monitor FHTC;
1. To prioritize provision of FHTCs in quality affected areas, villages in drought-prone and desert areas, Sansad Adarsh Gram Yojana (SAGY) villages, etc.;
1. To promote and ensure voluntary ownership among local community by way of contribution in cash, kind and/ or labour and voluntary labour (shramdaan);
1. To assist in ensuring the sustainability of water supply system, i.e. water source, water supply infrastructure, and funds for regular O&M;
1. To empower and develop human resource in the sector such that the demands of construction, plumbing, electrical, water quality management, water treatment, catchment protection, O&M, etc. are taken care of in short and long term; and to bring awareness on various aspects and significance of safe drinking water and involvement of stakeholders in manner that make water everyone's business.

Functional household tap connection(FHTC) to households, Schools, Anganwadi centres, GP buildings, Health centres, wellness centres and community buildings. (Priority in quality affected areas, villages in drought prone and desert areas)
The scheme shall provide FHTC in every household with three delivery points (taps), viz. kitchen, washing & bathing area and toilet, to keep water clean and prevent misuse.
Out of the three, only one tap per household will be funded under JJM.
Other Benefits:
Monitoring functionality of tap connections.
Promotion and ensure voluntary ownership among local community by way of contribution in cash, kind and/ or labour and voluntary labour (shramdaan)
Assistance in ensuring sustainability of water supply system, i.e. water source, water supply infrastructure, and funds for regular O&M
Empowering and development of human resource in the sector such that the demands of construction, plumbing, electrical, water quality management, water treatment, catchment protection, O&M, etc. are taken care of in short and long term
Awareness on various aspects and significance of safe drinking water and involvement of stakeholders in manner that make water everyone's busine

State Governments/ UT Administration will implement the mission based on the finalized SAP with timelines to cover all the villages of the respective State/ UT. Each village will be assessed on existing water supply infrastructure by DWSM in consultation with Gram Panchayat and/ or its sub-committee and ISA. Based on the same, FHTCs will be provided to every rural household by creating in-village water supply infrastructure including source development under any one of the following suggested categories, viz.

Retrofitting of ongoing schemes taken up under erstwhile NRDWP for the last mile connectivity; Retrofitting of completed rural water supply schemes to make it JJM compliant; Single Village Scheme (SVS) in villages having adequate groundwater/ spring water/ local or surface water source of prescribed quality; Single Village Scheme (SVS) in villages having adequate groundwater that needs treatment; Multi Village Scheme (MVS) with water grids/ regional water supply scheme; and Mini solar power-based piped water supply in isolated/ tribal hamlets.
In such areas, local innovations/ technological solutions will be explored. Suggestive technological solutions to address challenges in the supply of drinking water are as under: Solar energy based stand-alone water supply systems for scattered/ isolated/ tribal/ hilly villages. Community Water Purification Plant (CWPP) in groundwater contaminated areas. In cold deserts, solutions may be explored to enhance and store run-off water in small tanks - traditional water harvesting structure, i.e. Zings of Ladakh. Further, artificial glacial reservoirs may be created by diverting the run-off to freeze & store as glacier. In hard rock areas, bore-blast technique, fracture seal cementation, stream blasting, etc. may be explored. In hilly areas, adopting spring-based sources, rain water harvesting and standalone bore-well systems (if feasible) will be explored. In coastal areas, energy efficient small desalination plants with high recovery ratio will be explored, along with construction of sub-surface dykes in rivers. Use of Internet of Things (IoT), Geographic Information System (GIS) software, etc., will be required for planning and monitoring.

Open Official WebsiteThe scheme aims to provide financial relief to beneficiaries of the Gujarat Housing Board and Slum Clearance Cell who have pending installment dues by offering a complete waiver of penalty amounts. It benefits tenants and property allottees by waiving 100% penalties on arrears if paid by 31st March.
The scheme provides subsidized electricity bills to domestic consumers with monthly consumption up to 150 units, promoting energy conservation and reducing electricity costs for eligible beneficiaries.
Providing basic services (e.g. water supply, sewerage, urban transport) to households and building amenities in cities which will improve the quality of life for all, especially the poor and the disadvantaged is a national priority.
The scheme aims to reward and incentivize the best performing Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) in Himachal Pradesh (Municipal Council/Nagar Panchyat) on the indicators of sanitations/cleanliness, increase utilization, public infrastructure and official work.
The scheme aims to support Adi Dravidar/Tribal communities by providing burial grounds and pathways in areas where such facilities are not available.
Under this scheme, all babies born to BPL mothers in the State (approximately 3,00,000 births per annum) will be covered for neonatal care by partnering pediatricians, including care in their Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (level 2 ) at no cost to the beneficiary.
