HC seeks ATR from govt on CAG report on drinking water quality in Odisha
The New Indian Express Bhubaneswar
|December 17, 2024
The Orissa High Court has directed the government to inform what action has been taken after a report of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) indicating serious shortcomings in water testing infrastructure in the state was placed before the state Assembly.
The court was hearing a PIL filed by Maitree Sansad, a Cuttack-based voluntary organisation in 2016. In an affidavit submitted through advocate Ajay Mohanty on December 9, the petitioner cited a CAG report which pulled up the state Housing and Urban Development department over water quality management in urban areas of the state. The report said achievement of 100 per cent water quality as envisaged in the Water Policy-2013 remained unfulfilled, the affidavit said.
