Government projects- my opinion-2 Nov 2012

Will be travelling overnight to Khammam for a day and then to Vijayawada and Vuyyuru for two days and then to Nuzvidu for a day. Will be back on 7th morning in Hyderabad. Mission: Water Quality monitoring study for Min of Drinking water and Sanitation. From my earlier visit to Kadapa/YSR district, I come to understand one thing: By the time the Government conceives an idea/project and turns/grounds into an active project, the ground reality takes a different shape. Due to generous support from the sons of soil who could be NRIs, industrialists, and rapid technological changes such as RO, many/substantial no of villagers today have access to a better drinking water at a reasonable price. This has led the traditional drinking water infrastructure, created by State/ZP/GP/RWS/PHED, become redundant! all the equipment procured, distributed to test the quality of these water sources, trainings, trainees remain much unutilised. Let me see whether this is true for other areas!
