Lucknow: The Yogi Government is set to launch a special road repair campaign from October 1 to November 10, 2026, aimed at addressing damages caused during pipeline installation for rural drinking water projects. To enhance monitoring and public involvement, a feature has been added to the Jal Sarathi App, allowing villagers to lodge complaints regarding road conditions by sharing photographs and videos of the affected sites.
Jal Shakti Minister Swatantra Dev Singh reviewed the progress of various drinking water projects through a video conference on Monday. He emphasized that roads excavated for pipeline laying should be repaired on priority and in line with the required standards during the campaign period. Additionally, he instructed officials to maintain regular monitoring of the repair works.
The Jal Sarathi App will enable citizens to upload complaints if they encounter poor road conditions after the campaign ends, with appropriate action taken by the concerned authorities. The minister warned that any negligence in the execution of drinking water projects will not be tolerated, and agencies found accountable will face strict consequences.
The meeting also focused on prioritizing pending works in villages yet to receive drinking water facilities, maintaining quality standards, and ensuring timely project completion.
