India held high-level meetings with Tanzania and Zimbabwe to boost collaboration in water resource management, as shared by Jal Shakti Minister C R Paatil during National Water Week-2024.

In his discussions with Zimbabwe’s delegation, led by Deputy Minister V P Haritatos, Paatil emphasized enhancing water management and agricultural reforms in the country. Haritatos highlighted the importance of increasing Indian investments in Zimbabwe’s water sector, with a focus on Indian companies like WAPCOS. Paatil assured Zimbabwe of India’s commitment to providing technical assistance and cooperation to address water-related challenges, particularly in areas like irrigation system design, improved water supply, and irrigation efficiency.

Paatil also stressed the role of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership in fostering international partnerships for sustainable water resource management, ensuring food security, and supporting growth.

In a separate meeting with Tanzania’s Water Minister, discussions revolved around a potential Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to enhance collaboration in areas like water conservation, rainwater harvesting, and groundwater management. Tanzania expressed gratitude for India’s contributions to water supply projects, especially through WAPCOS, and both sides pledged to bolster technical cooperation.

Paatil also met with World Water Council president Loïc Fauchon, who invited India to join the global platform, further solidifying India’s role in international water management efforts.
