Niti Aayog Meet Israel Officials – Jal Shakti Ministry
The first task for the Jal Shakti Ministry is to conserve water resources. For this purpose, the central govt. is taking help of the workers of Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA). Previously to preserve water resources, various Indian and Israeli officials have already met in the past few months.
In Israel, all the households are already getting pure water supply through pipelines and taps. In India, around 45% of water is used for drinking purpose in households and 80% is used in farming.

So to tackle this issue, PM Modi is laying emphasis on conserving water and is launching Har Ghar Nal Yojana.
