To ensure round the clock water supply a introductory workshop on water supply system was organized at the headquarters of Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company.
In Barhi, Bankhedi, Betulbazar, Bhavra, Isagarh, Makedon, Mauganj, Petlawad, Phoonfkala, Rahatgarh, Sohagpur, Susner, Burhanpur and Khargone Nagar, a target has been set to start round the clock water supply system by June 2022.
Addressing the workshop through virtual medium, Managing Director cum Commissioner Nikunj Srivastava said that it is necessary for the provision of water supply round the clock for seven days that proper water rate should be fixed by giving metered connections to the residents of the body.
Without water meter, the concept of water supply system is not possible for round the clock and seven days of week. It is also necessary to instill confidence among citizens towards water meters.
Shrivastava instructed that the Chief Municipal Officer of the concerned Municipality and Municipal Council should conduct the campaign while preparing the outline of public awareness campaign for taking metered connection and proper use of water.
The Managing Director also did one to one dialogue with the Chief Municipal Officers of the concerned bodies. In the beginning of the workshop, the company's chief engineer Deepak Ratnawat explained in detail the planning of water supply system for 24 hours a day and 7 days of week.
By June 2022, there is a target of supplying water continuously round the clock in 14 bodies of the state.
