A recent visit of Rajasthan Public Health Engineering Minister Mahesh Joshi, accompanied by the officials from his department, to Denmark is expected to help in the preparation of a new framework for drinking water management and rejuvenation of rivers in Rajasthan. The State’s delegation discussed the scope for increasing mutual cooperation in the water sector.
Ambassador of Denmark Freddy Svane had met Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot here in March 2021, paving the way for collaboration in water management. A Danish delegation later came to the State and visited Jaipur and Udaipur cities to observe the water supply arrangements. Denmark’s waste water experts Peter Fischer and Ditte Hansen also visited Jaipur earlier this year to deliberate on the green strategic partnership.
Mr. Joshi said here on Tuesday that the work in Denmark in the field of water and environment conservation was commendable and the Aarhus river water project as well as the waste water management system were the models that could be replicated in Rajasthan.
