Budget fails to allocate enough to turn the rhetoric of tap water to each household into reality.

Union Finance Minister Ms. Nirmala Sitharaman presented the decade's first union budget in the parliament on 1st February 2020. While presenting budget for 2020-2021, she started with the country’s vision for the decade in which she emphasised on water management and clean rivers as one of the 10 points of vision for the country. The announcement assumes importance in the light of NITI Aayog’s grim estimate that around half of the country’s population or approximately 600 million people face high to extreme water stress.

THE FINANCIAL PROVISIONS

In this year’s budget, approximately 39,029 crore INR are proposed for the water domain spread across the Ministry of Jal Shakti, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, Ministry of Rural Development and Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. This allocation is around 6% more than last year’s budget.
