Major Water Pipeline Project Set to Transform Jhunjhunu
In a big development for water-starved regions of northern Rajasthan, the final Detailed Project Report (DPR) has been approved for the Yamuna water pipeline scheme. This ambitious project aims to deliver potable Yamuna river water to homes in Jhunjhunu, Sikar, and Churu.
The water will be brought from Haryana via large-scale pipelines, and routed through a network of storage tanks and filtration units to reach even the remotest villages in Jhunjhunu. Officials confirmed that the Yamuna project is now in the execution-ready phase under the Jal Jeevan Mission.
The project is expected to cost thousands of crores and will use advanced water treatment and monitoring systems. It is particularly vital for areas like Surajgarh, Pilani, and Alsisar, where groundwater is not just salty but rapidly depleting.
Local PHED engineers said work will begin once tendering is complete. The goal is to reduce water scarcity permanently while ensuring clean, reliable supply in a region that has historically struggled with basic access.
Why It Matters for Jhunjhunu Residents
For Jhunjhunu’s rural and semi-urban residents, this pipeline means relief from long-term water stress. Households relying on tanker water or unsafe borewells will finally see piped clean water become a reality.
It’s also a huge win for farmers and small businesses that need dependable water access for irrigation and operations.
