A special report highlights the transformation in Mirzapur where the village of Lahuri Yadav received tap water under the Jal Jeevan Mission's Har Ghar Nal Yojana. Nestled in the Vindhya Hills, the settlement of roughly 1,500 residents previously faced severe water scarcity, with women walking nearly five kilometres to collect water from springs and forests. Piped water access began on August 31, 2023, providing major relief to local households. The initiative is part of a broader push across Uttar Pradesh, where more than 2.36 crore rural homes were connected to tap water with over 5.07 lakh kilometres of pipeline laid by March 2025.
