Jal Jeevan Mission: #15CrHarGharJal’s Post

WRI India has been working closely with the Government of Maharashtra’s State Climate Action Cell towards developing a General Resolution (GR) which mandates the state's 43 Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) cities to formulate Climate Action Cells. These cells will augment state capacities at the city, district, and divisional levels and will help in the preparation and implementation of Climate Action Plans (CAPs) that align with the Government of India’s net-zero targets along with meeting their local adaptation and resilience needs. The Climate Action Cells, headed by the municipal commissioners, chief officers, district collectors, and divisional commissioners, will act as administrative units that will be supported by technical units based on requirements. This GR was informed by the institutional structures and governance mechanisms recommended in the Mumbai, Bengaluru, Nashik, Solapur, and Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar CAPs prepared by WRI India in partnership with C40 Cities.

Will Indore be the next Bengaluru? Indore's water situation is critical. I am very bullish about the growth of the city of Indore. I have seen it get transformed into the undisputed Cleanliest city in India. The city's economy is growing along with its urban sprawl, population, and water demand. If anything can come in the way of Indore's growth, it is WATER! 83% of its water is sourced from River Narmada. Unlike other regions, where treated water is returned to its source. Indore diverts its treated wastewater into the Ganga. This practice is unsustainable. The quantity of water flowing in the Narmada river is diminishing and similar to Cauvery in the South, the Narmada also does not reach the sea many months in a year. As urban centers are increasing in Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat, there could be conflict over River Narmaada in the future. There is a need for sustainable water practices. Otherwise, we would have Tamil Nadu-Karnataka like conflict between Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh over River Narmada. Water Challenges require collaborative efforts and innovative solutions to enable a sustainable future for India.

Great news for rural Assam! The World Bank recently approved a $452 million program, the Assam Resilient Rural Bridges Program, to improve connectivity for over 1.8 million people living in rural areas. This initiative specifically targets strengthening roads and bridges to withstand extreme weather events, a common challenge in Assam. This improved infrastructure will be a game-changer for these communities. Here's what they can expect: 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿-𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀:Residents of 1,739 villages will gain reliable access to essential services like hospitals, schools, and wholesale markets, regardless of the weather. 𝗘𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝘀𝘁: Easier access to markets is expected to increase farmer incomes and empower women-led textile and handicraft businesses. 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀: Improved infrastructure could lead to savings of over $82 million within the next six years compared to current travel expenses. 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀: The program aims to create jobs in bridge design, construction, and maintenance, with a focus on increasing women's participation by nearly 20%. This project is a great example of how infrastructure development can contribute to inclusive growth and empower rural communities. #infrastructuredevelopment #ruralindia #Assam #WorldBank

Surat, Indore cleanest cities; Maharashtra tops State in India The Swachh Survekshan awards were given away by President Droupadi Murmu. The Swachh Survekshan, which began with modest evaluation of 73 major cities in 2016, now covers 4,477 cities. The evaluation this year was done by over 3,000 assessors. Nearly 12 crore citizen responses were received. The theme of the cleanliness survey 2023 was "Waste to wealth", while for 2024, it is "Reduce, reuse and recycle". Mr. Puri said that in 2014, there was only 15-16% scientific processing of waste, while today the number is almost 76%, in the next two to three years, 100% will be achieved. "By the end of mission, we would have fully transitioned from manhole to machine hole". Varanasi and Prayagraj in Uttar Pradesh won the top two awards for the cleanest Ganga towns. Chandigarh won the award for the safest city for sanitation workers Madyamgram, Kalyani and Haora, all cities in West Bengal, have the dubious distinction of being placed at the bottom of list. States at the end of the list were Rajasthan, Mizoram, and Arunachal Pradesh. #swachhsurvekshan2023 #swachhbharat #india #clean

Do you know Nagpur(The Orange City) was named over the Nag river? It was once the lifeline of the city. But today, this historic river is encroached, buried in deep silt and filled with untreated water. In September 2023, nearby areas were flooded. Thus affecting a lot of people. It is a clear reminder of what happens when you encroach upon a river. Rs. 2,117 cr has been approved for the Nag River Pollution Abatement Project in 2021. But there has been no improvement in the water quality so far. Now is the time to take collective action to ensure that our rivers(waterbodies) like The Nag River flow freely, sustainably, nurture life and prosperity for the generations to come.
