The minister’s direction came during a meeting with officers of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), BSES, and Delhi Jal Board in view of preparation for the upcoming holy month of Ramzan.
Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva called it the result of the party’s allegations that chief minister had to clarify for the first time on the scam and corruption of the Delhi Jal Board.
Under the campaign, members of women-led Self Help Groups (SHGs) associated with partner NGOs of Delhi Jal Board visited four water treatment plants (WTPs) of the DJB.
The leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly said the chief minister has promised hundreds of times to provide free 24-hour clean water to the people of Delhi.
This will also remove all the loopholes related to the existing billing system, and the Delhi Jal Board will be held responsible for any mistakes.
Treatment and pumping of water treatment plants in the city have been affected, resulting in a massive disruption of supply.
In the first phase of the survey, the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) is assessing water demand in 16 priority sectors, and the report is likely to be ready by early next year.
Jain, accompanied by DJB Vice-Chairman Raghav Chadha, instructed the officials to work tirelessly in ensuring that complaints do not remain pending and focus should be on resolving complaints in the shortest time span.
The DJB, however, like in the past approached the Supreme Court to seek its intervention in the matter and got a much needed relief.
