Bharat Nirman

The Bharat Nirman Yojana was a flagship program launched in 2005 by the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government under the leadership of then-Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh.

It was designed as a time-bound initiative to build and upgrade rural infrastructure in India, aiming to improve the quality of life in villages and boost rural development.

Drinking water initiatives focused on addressing contamination issues, covering 2,982 uncovered habitations and other affected areas.
