PM Modi in ‘Mann Ki Baat’ address: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his 103rd edition of the 'Mann Ki Baat' radio broadcast, highlighted the government's dedication to water conservation. He praised the success of 'Mission Amrit Sarovar', which aims to develop and rejuvenate 75 water bodies in each district to celebrate Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav (75 years of independence).
Over 60,000 'Amrit Sarovars' have already become shining landmarks, and the construction of 50,000 more is underway as part of the ongoing 'Azaadi ka Amrit Mahotsav'.
PM Modi also commended the efforts of the people in conserving water, demonstrating a sense of responsibility and awareness. During his recent visit to Madhya Pradesh's Shahdol, he interacted with tribal villagers from Pakaria village, who have embraced water conservation techniques. The villagers, with the help of local authorities, converted around a hundred wells into water recharge systems. Rainwater now flows into these wells and gradually replenishes the groundwater level in the area.
