Foreign team visits Bhagiratha plant

Parigi: As part of study tour, 29 foreigners from 18 countries visited Mission Bhagiratha plant at Jafferpalli on Friday. The officials accorded a traditional welcome and explained them about the functioning of the plant.

They also explained about the entry of water, its treatment and supply to various villages. Speaking on the occasion, the visitors said the plant was a good example for public service.

"Water is very important in our lives. So many people fall ill due to lack of safe drinking water. It is laudable that the State government is supplying purified water free of cost. We will try to implement such scheme in our countries," they said.
