It aims at improving access to safe and adequate water for the tribal communities living in difficult and inaccessible parts of rural areas in the country.
The initiative will help in harnessing the potential of perennial springs’ water to address natural scarcity of water in tribal areas.
It also includes provision of infrastructure for piped water supply for drinking; provision of water for irrigation; community-led total sanitation initiatives; and provision for water for backyard nutrition gardens, generating sustainable livelihood opportunities for the tribal people.
