Addressing the nation on Independence Day 2019, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi set a goal of tap water to every rural household by the year:

The goal set was to provide tap water to every rural household by the year 2024.

The Prime Minister announced this from the Red Fort during the 2019 Independence Day address.

The target of 2025 is not the deadline named in that speech.

The year 2027 does not match the announced rural water goal.

The distant year 2030 aligns with global development targets, not this mission.

The pledge became the Jal Jeevan Mission, aimed at functional household tap connections.
