Banwari Lal, Minister of State for Public Health Engineering, on Monday said the work of installing taps in all villages across the state would be completed by December 31.  Besides, repair work would also be done wherever needed.

The minister said while interacting with mediapersons after returning from Singapore, where he attended International Water Week -2018. More projects on water conservation and polluted water treatment by using the latest techniques would be implemented in the state, he added.

“Rise in population in urban areas, constant increase in the demand of water supply and changing weather conditions are main reasons for shortage of water. These were discussed during the week to find solutions on a global platform,” said the minister.

He maintained in addition to treating the polluted water, discussions were held to improve the quality of water supply. A water summit was also held during this visit so as to make the future generations learn about various methods of water management.

“In Water Reclamation Plant, Singapore, the waste water is treated through deep tunnels, which destroys the pollutants and passed through in-tube coolers to be reused for supply in the households or industries after treatment. The delegation from Haryana learnt the technical knowledge about the working of this plant from the concerned officials of Singapore. There are four such plants in Singapore,” he added.

Urging the people to judiciously use water as per their need, the minister said Singapore had earlier shortage of water and was dependent on Malaysia for water supply. However, after implementing various methods of water conservation, including rain water harvesting, Singapore today has become an inspiration for other countries in water conservation and treatment, he added.
