Expand rainwater harvesting and storage to sustain groundwater recharge

The commitment is being implemented through continuing water-conservation and recharge programmes. The February 2026 Assembly address reported more than 14,500 works under Sujalam Sufalam Jal Abhiyan–Catch the Rain 2.0 during 2025, adding 20,815 lakh cubic feet of water-storage capacity. It separately reported 202 check dams completed by December 2025, with further works underway. These are physical works and added capacity directly relevant to harvesting, storage and recharge. As this is a continuing commitment without a stated numerical endpoint, the evidence supports On Track. Completion of structures does not by itself prove that groundwater levels or recharge rates have improved everywhere; those outcomes should continue to be monitored.
