District Action Plan Guidelines 2020

This letter dated 29th September 2020 provides comprehensive guidelines for the preparation of District Action Plans under the Jal Jeevan Mission. The DAP is the critical planning document at the district level that outlines the strategy and roadmap for providing functional household tap connections to all rural households in the district. The guidelines cover components including district-specific coverage targets, village-level planning, scheme identification and prioritization, financial projections, institutional arrangements, and monitoring mechanisms. The DAP preparation involves consultation with district-level stakeholders including the District Water and Sanitation Mission, Gram Panchayats, and line departments.
