  • ADDRESS by the PRESIDENT of INDIA, SHRI RAM NATH KOVIND to the JOINT SITTING of TWO HOUSES of PARLIAMENT Honourable Members, 1
    ADDRESS BY THE PRESIDENT OF INDIA, SHRI RAM NATH KOVIND TO THE JOINT SITTING OF TWO HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT New Delhi, January 29, 2021 Honourable Members, 1. This joint sitting of Parliament which is being held during the time of the Coronavirus pandemic has great significance. It is the beginning of a new year and a new decade. We will also be entering the 75th year of India’s independence this year. All the Members of Parliament present here today embody the conviction held by every Indian that the toughest of challenges will deter neither us nor India. 2. Whenever India has remained united, it has been able to attain even seemingly unattainable goals. This solidarity and Pujya Bapu’s inspiration had given us freedom from hundreds of years of colonial rule. Echoing the same spirit, Assam Kesari, Ambikagiri Raichaudhuri the nationalist poet, had said – “Om tatsat Bharat Mahat, Ek chetonaat, Ek Dhyanot, Ek Sadhonaat, Ek Avegot, Ek Hoi Jaa, Ek Hoi Jaa” That is, India’s grandeur is the ultimate truth. In one single consciousness, one thought, one devotion, one inspiration, let us unite; let us unite. 3. This unity and dedication of Indians has enabled the country to overcome multiple adversities. Our country has faced every crisis with fortitude, be it the Coronavirus pandemic, floods, earthquakes or major cyclones in several States, locust attack or the bird flu. The recent past also saw an unprecedented escalation in tension along the border. The nation stood together, battled crises on multiple fronts and surmounted every challenge. During this period, we all have also witnessed the unparalleled courage, endurance, discipline and spirit of service of our countrymen.

  • Jal Jeevan Samvad February, 2021 Prime Minister on Jal Jeevan Mission
    Year 2021, Issue: 5 Jal Jeevan Samvad February, 2021 Prime Minister on Jal Jeevan Mission Jal Jeevan Samvad Union Minister on Jal Jeevan Mission …Read more Jal Jeevan Samvad Note from the desk of Mission Director… New Delhi February, 2021 With Union Government’s focus on ensuring water, sanitation & hygiene (WASH) services, which has huge impact on public health, in the budget for 2021-22, Jal Jeevan Mission has been given top priority and allocation has been increased from Rs. 11,500 Crore in 2020-21 to Rs. 50,011 Crore in 2021-22. With matching increase in State share and earmarking of 60% of 15th Finance Commission grants to rural local bodies or PRIs for water supply & sanitation, the investment on making provision of drinking water in rural areas will be more than 1 Lakh Crore in 2021-22, which is going to further increase in next 3 years. So far, about 20 thousand Crore rupees are spent on annually on water supply projects. This kind of increase in investment signifies the criticality of the sector and quantum of works to be done in coming years. This also signifies the priority of the Government to ensure clean tap water to every home to alleviate the drudgery of women and girls by removing their burden of fetching water from a distance, thus improving quality of life and enhancing ease of living of people in villages. As planned, under Jal Jeevan Mission, about 12.50 Crore households to be provided tap water connections by 2024, which means, every year more than 3 Crore households to be provided tap water connections.
