The Mizoram government’s initiative to improve water supply and sanitation infrastructure is:

Swachh Bharat Mission
Jal Jeevan Mission
National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP)

The correct answer is: b) Jal Jeevan Mission.

Jal Jeevan Mission (Jal Jyoti Yojana) is a flagship initiative of the Government of India to provide safe and adequate drinking water to every household in rural India by 2024. The mission aims to provide functional household tap connections to all rural households, and to improve the quality of drinking water through water quality monitoring and treatment.

The mission is being implemented in a phased manner, with the first phase covering 500 districts in the country. The second phase will cover the remaining 500 districts. The mission is being funded by the Government of India, with a total outlay of Rs. 3.5 lakh crore.

The mission is expected to have a significant impact on the lives of people in rural India. It will improve their health and well-being, and will also boost economic activity in rural areas.

  • Swachh Bharat Mission is a cleanliness campaign launched by the Government of India in 2014. The mission aims to make India open defecation free by 2019.
