The verdict

Jal Jeevan Mission was launched in Aug 2019 when about 18% of rural households had tap water. By mid-2024 roughly three-quarters of rural households had tap connections per the mission dashboard (recalled, not re-opened), short of 100%; the mission was later extended.

Rule applied: Partially kept: 75%+ of the target met, or a law passed in diluted form → 6
