New Delhi, Dec 10 (PTI) Jal Shakti Minister C R Paatil on Tuesday launched the Sujalam Bharat app that aims to bring every rural drinking water scheme in the country onto a unified, geo-referenced system and provide real-time information to users.

The initiative, supported by the Bhaskaracharya National Institute for Space Applications and Geo-informatics (BISAG-N), is being positioned as the digital backbone for the government's Viksit Bharat 2047 vision.

Calling it a "very important launch for Jal Jeevan Mission," Paatil said the platform would enhance "transparency and strengthen community ownership in rural drinking water supply systems." The app will allow the public and institutions alike to view data on water sources, assets, scheme design, supply reliability, and water quality.
