The feedback will also help verify and assess the assets reported under the initiative. Under this initiative, districts, states and union territories and other stakeholders are recognised on the basis of the number of completed artificial groundwater recharge and water storage projects. That is why citizen participation in the feedback process is seen as particularly important. The ministry expects this to improve the quality and reliability of reporting, promote transparency and encourage districts and urban local bodies (ULBs) to maintain the structures properly. ## How to send suggestions Citizens and stakeholders can submit their suggestions and views through the JSJB 2.0 portal.
