Status evidence
Likely active — the official Minor Water Resources portal runs the Mukhyamantri Niji Nalkoop Yojana under Saat Nishchay-2 (target 35,000 borewells); 'Shatabdi Niji Nalkoop' is an older label. No current open-application window confirmed, so not upgraded to active. Verified 2026-06-19.
