Assuring Quality of Implementation Under Jal Jeevan Mission

About Dataset

The presentation titled “Assuring Quality of Implementation under JJM” summarizes specific implementation issues identified during field visits. It focuses particularly on Functional Household Tap Connections and structural or pipeline leakage problems that can affect the quality and safety of rural water-supply systems. One observed issue is FHTCs passing through wastewater drains, creating a potential contamination risk. Another is the absence of pedestal support or a suitable platform for FHTCs installed in open areas. The presentation also notes leakages at pipe joints and fittings and leakages in overhead tank or reservoir walls. To address these concerns, it recommends stronger technical supervision at critical stages of construction. Specifically, the TPI engineer should be present during concreting so that construction quality can be observed and verified at the time of execution. It also emphasizes that FHTC connections should be provided according to approved drawings. The concise recommendations reflect the importance of preventing defects at source rather than relying only on post-construction correction. The material is useful for engineers, inspection agencies and implementing departments seeking to improve field execution and protect the reliability, safety and durability of household water connections under JJM.
