Q. Which state launched ‘Mission Bhagiratha’ to deliver safe drinking water connection to every household?
Answer:
Telangana
Notes: Telangana is the first state to initiate a project known as 'Mission Bhagiratha,' which aims to deliver a safe drinking water connection to every household.
The project's vision is to provide 100 liters per capita per day (LPCD) of treated and piped water to rural households, 135 LPCD to municipalities, and 150 LPCD to municipal corporations. The state government relies entirely on internal and external sources for this project, with no assistance from the Centre.
