50 Bodhan villages in pilot project

YEDAPALLY (NIZAMABAD DT.): Efforts are on to supply safe and purified drinking water at the rate of 20 paise per litre to every household in over 50 villages in Bodhan Assembly constituency. If this pilot project being undertaken at a cost of Rs. 3-4 lakh for each unit is successful, it will be extended to other villages in course of time.

Disclosing this at an official programme at this mandal headquarters town on Saturday, Minister for Major Irrigation P. Sudarshan Reddy said that the administration entered into an agreement with the famous Tata Company for the supply of machinery for water purification with 10-year guaranty.

The idea behind the project was to prevent water-borne diseases in the villages by supplying safe drinking water to the poor at affordable price, he said, adding that his government was ready to provide any possible help to the poor and downtrodden.

Reiterating that farmers who lost crops due to recent gales and hailstorm would certainly be given compensation, Mr. Sudarshan Reddy said that all canals in the district were being repaired to enable farmers to get maximum water in the ayacut. If the agriculture was profitable, people in all walks of life would lead a happy life, he said.

Asking the farmers not to go in for only the paddy cultivation as it consumed a huge quantity of water which was scarce in the given conditions, he said cultivation of alternative crops like cereals, oil seeds and pulses could be taken up.

Earlier, he inaugurated the Amma Hastham programme and distributed bags containing nine essential commodities to the Below Poverty Line families.

He said it was just a beginning and from next Vijaya Dasami the government would supply 18 commodities through fair prices shops.
