Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting Prakash Javadekar on Saturday flagged off a vehicle christened 'Jaldoot' here to spread the message of water conservation.
Javadekar said Jaldoot, a travelling exhibition arranged by Pune-based Regional Outreach Bureau of I&B ministry, will tour eight districts of Maharashtra in the next two months.
It will take the message of water conservation to the masses and highlight work done in this connection by the Narendra Modi government in the first 100 days of its second term, Javadekar said.
He said water was top priority for the Centre and it had set up a separate ministry called Jalshakti for the purpose, adding that it was committed to provide piped water to every household by 2024.
