Congress general secretary and senior leader Jairam Ramesh made a post on X on Sunday. Regarding Jaljeevan Mission in the post, he said that 4,35,311 families in Hooghly are deprived of the tap water scheme. The deadline for the scheme is set for 2024. Districts near Hooghly also have high concentrations of arsenic and fluoride in groundwater, which can cause serious health complications. Why is the Modi government ignoring the plight of the people of Hooghly?
