Devendra Fadnavis also inspected various water supply works in Dhule on Tuesday
The Deputy CM, while addressing locals in Dhule, stated, "The Bhoomipujan for the work of supplying water through closed tube distribution system will benefit the areas which will receive water from Jamfal Dam"
The Jamfal Dam project is being implemented through the captive tube-well distribution system under Sulwade-Jamfal-Kanoli Upsa Irrigation Scheme
Devendra Fadnavis, who was then the CM of Maharashtra, had said the Sulwade Jamphal Kanoli Lift Irrigation Scheme was approved by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the wake of the drought situation in Maharashtra
The project, worth around Rs 2,100 crore, will bring water from Tapi river and supply linked dams, ponds and canals, and is likely to benefit 1 lakh farmers
The water supply scheme aims to provide safe drinking water to the locals of Dhule region

In 2019, PM Narendra Modi had laid the foundation stone of the Sulwade Jamphal Kanoli Lift Irrigation Scheme in Dhule. The scheme sets to benefit around 100 villages in Dhule district
