In India, it is tradition that you do not refuse drinking water to any one. That the situation has come to pass where water doesn’t remain drinkable any more is an extremely unfortunate burden of this century, something we ourselves have brought on.

With the safe drinking water programme we are also bringing on solutions to the situation, we have pledged that we cannot and will not refuse safe drinking water to communities that are thirsting for it.

How successful have we been in honouring this pledge, is the meat of this section - as water users in villages, village panchayats, the government and other partners speak up on how we are making safe drinking water for all reality, and why they feel this is a solution that can revolutionise drinking water quality in India.
