Handpumps

Although Hand Pumps usually do not provide coverage of a habitation, (due to limitation of rigs operating along road-sides only) they are supplementing the existing piped water supply and have been installed in drought prone areas, areas of acute water scarcity and other problematic areas and the areas where tankers have been deployed in recent years at huge financial cost. Hand Pump programme has been great success in mitigating the peoples misery due to shortage of drinking water in different pockets of drought prone and acute water scarcity areas. The programme was started during 1991-92 and a total of 41835 hand pumps have been installed in the Himachal Pradesh upto December-2023.
