More funds to complete drinking water projects

Special Correspondent

Chief Minister Oommen Chandy informed the Assembly on Thursday that the State government would provide the required funds in addition to budgetary support for drinking water projects of the Kerala Water Authority (KWA) that can be completed within one year.

Intervening during the question hour, the Chief Minister said the government had decided to give priority to complete drinking water projects on the lines of the emphasis given to road works after the United Democratic Front (UDF) government came to power.

He said the government would also construct check-dams across rivers, take up renovation of the ponds, and rainwater harvesting to ensure that there would not be water shortage in the next summer season.

Mr. Chandy said the District Collectors had been directed to prepare a list after consulting the MPs and MLAs to finalise the projects. Priority would be given to Palakkad district and Chitoor, he added.
