By putting into practice the summer action plan it had previously created to meet any deficit throughout the summer, the state administration is making sure that citizens have access to enough drinking water. Only 10 municipalities and two corporations (Khammam and Karimnagar) out of the 142 towns in the state—130 municipalities and 12 municipal corporations—face a minor water deficit, and the administration is looking into other options to fix the problem as soon as possible.
 
According to government sources, chief minister A. revanth reddy constantly monitors the state of the drinking water supply and gives authorities instructions on how to address any shortages. There are forecasts of extreme heat through June, thus coordinated measures are being undertaken to guarantee that all cities and villages have a steady supply of drinking water. Every day, Chief Secretary A. Santhi Kumari has been assessing the state of the drinking water. According to sources, concerns or notifications about water shortages are swiftly handled. To supervise the action plan's execution, ten senior IAS officers have been named special officers.
 
Even in the 130 communities where the supply of drinking water is not insufficient (less than 10 percent), citizens are nevertheless guaranteed enough water to meet their requirements. The average amount of water needed for consumption is 1,398.05 million liters per day (MLD). The supply is 1,371 MLD, so there is a 26.31 MLD deficit. In communities where the demand is less than 100 LPCD (liters per capita per day), the government is finding and delivering summer-appropriate alternate sources.
 
Water is provided to 23,839 rural habitations under Mission Bhagiratha, guaranteeing a supply of 100 LPCD to every hamlet. A total of Rs 100 crore is allocated to enable standby pumps, grid pumps, and urgent works at the district level. Furthermore, flexibility in the utilization of money from the 15th Finance Commission has been extended to every constituency. Municipal and corporate officials were instructed to use the closest water sources in both urban and rural locations. Reduced rainfall since october and dropping water levels in the krishna and Godavari basin projects are the causes of the drinking water issue.
 
The administration is investigating ways to increase the amount of water supplied to the municipalities of nalgonda and khammam by using different reservoirs and configurations. To guarantee a continuous supply of water during emergencies, 97 more tankers have been deployed throughout 131 municipalities in addition to the 294 government tankers already in place. The government hopes to address and mitigate any problems with drinking water by putting these policies into place.
