Early Times Report
LUCKNOW, Nov 11: Uttar Pradesh has added another feather to its cap with its outstanding performance in the Sixth National Water Awards 2024, announced by the Central Government. Mirzapur has been declared the Best District in the Northern Zone, while the Agra Municipal Corporation secured joint third place in the Best Urban Local Body (ULB) category. This achievement underscores the success of the double-engine government's vision of "Har Ghar Nal, Har Khet Ko Pani."
This recognition highlights the state's significant strides in water conservation and public participation. The accomplishments of Mirzapur and Agra are setting new benchmarks for effective water management across the country. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Mirzapur has effectively implemented the Jal Jeevan Mission and Atal Bhujal Yojana, leading to the revival of reservoirs, construction of drains, and expansion of irrigation facilities in rural areas. Active participation by panchayats and local youth has made these initiatives highly successful, with several villages recording a rise in groundwater levels through rainwater harvesting and pond rejuvenation projects. |
