At a time, when majority of the people across the country are facing water crisis, Modi said there has been greater awareness on water conservation.
"Over the last few months, so many people have written about water related issues. I am happy to see greater awareness on water conservation. I wrote a letter to Gram Pradhans on the importance of water conservation and how to take steps to create awareness on the subject across rural India," said he.
"There is no fixed way to conserve water. In different parts, different methods may be adopted but the aim is same- to conserve every drop of water," sais the PM.
