The Amrit Sarovar Mission is a part of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav initiative launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in April 2022. The mission aims to develop and rejuvenate 75 water bodies in each district of India by 15 August 2023, marking India’s 75th year of independence.
The first Amrit Sarovar at the national level was completed in the Rampur district of Uttar Pradesh. This water body was developed to help in water conservation, boost irrigation facilities, and ensure better water management in the area.
The initiative focuses on promoting local participation through the Jan Bhagidari (public participation) model, with the objective of revitalizing water bodies and ensuring their sustainable management. It also aims to recharge groundwater, provide irrigation, and support biodiversity.
