13.12 Water Supply, Sewerage and Sanitation

Consequent upon the division of the state in Nov. 2000, Madhya Pradesh with a geographical area of 308245 Sq.Km., has become second largest state constituting 9.38 percent of the total geographical area of the country. The population of the state according to census 2001 is 60385118 which is 5.87 per cent of the country’s total population. Out of the total population, the urban and rural population is 16102590 and 44282528 respectively. The state, according to census 2001 has 52145 inhabited villages and 394 cities/towns.

The decadal growth rate of population for the decade 1991-2001 is 24.34 per cent which is more than the national average of 21.34 per cent. It is interesting to note that compared to the result of 1901 census, the population has increased by 376 per cent in the year 2001 with similar increase in density from 41 persons per sq.km. in 1901 to 196 persons per sqm.km. in 2001. This phenomenal increase in population underlines the point that the water supply system designed in sixties is no longer viable. The industrialisation of the state has further intensified the water demand. The programme to augment the water supply system has, therefore, to be stepped-up considerably.

Ninth Plan Progress

The objectives envisaged for the Ninth Plan were :-

Rural Water Supply

• Coverage of 100 per cent population of villages/majra/tola etc.

• Coverage of 100 per cent population of S.C./STs

• Creation of alternative sources where existing sources have been contaminated.

• Hundred per cent testing of all the created drinking water sources.

Urban Water Supply

• Completing all the ongoing schemes

• Towns with population upto one lakh will be covered.

• No new schemes will be taken-up without proper justification.

• Recycling schemes will be taken-up on priority basis.

• Villages which have been identified as daierrhoea prone will be covered with sanitation facilities on priority basis.

Partially covered (P.C.) habitations which are also targeted to be fully covered by June 2002.

Tenth Plan, 2002-2007 and Annual Plan, 2002-2003

The strategies envisaged for the Tenth Plan are :-

• Raising the level of services from 40 lped to 55 lped.

• In pursuance of the "Sector Reform" measures initiated by G.O.I. in April 1999 a policy of demand driven approach will be followed for raising the standard of water supply and a 10 percent public contribution is proposed to be taken from the user group with maintenance responsibilities.

• Reduce the maximum distance of water source from present 1.6 kms to 0.5 kms.

• Potable drinking water supply to new settlements.

• Providing alternate safe source of water where existing sources have been contaminated.

• Augmenting water testing facilities.

• Conducting evaluation studies, particularly relating to rural water supply schemes and enhancing the use of electronic media for analysis of information.

• Emphasis on implementing sewerage schemes.

• Accelerated implementation of the National River Conservation Plan being implemented by the GOI covering 11 towns of Madhya Pradesh. A few more towns will be added during Tenth Plan and Sewerage Plan will also be included.
