Water Projects Completed In Samangan Province

Afghanistan’s Bakhtar News Agency (BNA) reported last week that water supply projects have been completed in the northern province of Samangan recently. This has allowed for approximately 3,500 families to have access to clean drinking water as well as hygienic water for all their other needs. Engineer Gul Rahman, who is the director of the water supply program in the northern zone for the Human in Poverty organization, said that these projects have been completed at a total cost of $230,000. The financial support for these water projects was provided by GTZ of Germany.

The projects included the digging of 14 wells, 6 deep drinking wells, construction of four water reservoirs (in the Hazrat Sultan district), and three other water supply projects for three villages in the Khuram Sarbagh district of the province. Of the 3,500 families being provided with the hygienic water from these projects, nearly 2,500 families are from the Hazrat Sultan district, while 1,000 families are from the Khuram Sarbagh district.
