Speaking to reporters at Narayanakhed on Sunday, Ms. Geeta Reddy, who was here to participate in the launching of water purification unit in a village, said that the ruling Congress party only can carve out separate State and it was not possible for other parties. She said that development would also be on the top of priority list to the government. The Minister has also promised that seven-hour power supply would be extended to farmers even during the summer.

This was established by Satyasai Seva Samithi at a cost of Rs.5 lakh to extend purified water to the villagers. These units are being established where fluoride water problem is being faced by the residents. The Minister has commended the services being extended by Satyasai Seva Samithi in serving the people.

Though it was decided to establish water purification units at 108 villages, so far they were set up only in 60 villages.
