The works taken up under Jal Jeevan Mission should be implemented effectively, said Kundapura MLA Haladi Srinivas Shetty.

Speaking at a meeting chaired by ZP President Dinakar Babu, he said Jal Jeevan Mission aims to ensure access of piped water for every household in the country by 2024. It aims at supplying 55 litres per capita per day of water per individual.

It should be implemented effectively. Piped water connections should be provided to those villages that face acute shortage of water during peak summer, he added.
