Fifty-eight water and sanitation warriors from different parts of the country on Tuesday shared the transformative impact of the government’s Jal Jeevan Mission in their respective villages and districts during an event in New Delhi.

Known as WASH Warriors for their initiatives in drinking water supply, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), they narrated several benefits of the mission, including improved health outcomes, time savings for women, a reduction in water-borne diseases and strengthened community-led efforts in water conservation, hygiene and long-term sustainability of rural water systems — outcomes attributed to the Centre’s Jal Jeevan Mission.

The event called Samvad Samaroh was chaired by Union Minister for Jal Shakti C R Patil in the presence of the Ministers of State for Jal Shakti V Somanna and Raj Bhushan Choudhary.
