Conclusion
It is the endeavour of the Department to complete all schemes within the scheduled time. However, due to shortage of funds and other reasons such as theft, disputes over land/source, inter-village rivalry and delays in completing work, implementation of schemes is sometimes delayed. The system of reviewing and monitoring the implementation of schemes has been strengthened. PHED will make every effort to provide adequate safe water supply from the schemes to the intended population within the scheduled time of completion.
