Plan to transfer water schemes fails to make much headway
Shimla: The plan to transfer various water supply schemes to panchayti raj institutions (PRIs) in a phased manner has not made much headway. Only the partial control of about 1,200 out of the total over 7,900 schemes has been handed over to panchayati raj bodies so far. In such cases, panchayats are taking care of only distribution of water from storage tanks.
