Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, announcing the Union Budget for 2019-20 in Parliament on Friday, said ensuring India's water security and providing safe water for all Indians is a priority for this Government. "Provision of safe drinking water for every citizen is priority of government. We are working towards ''Har Ghar Jal'' by 2024," she said. Public-private partnership (PPP) for railways, increased FDI in media and aviation, and schemes to provide power, water and clean cooking facilities for all were among the highlights of her speech.
