Preventing water pollution

All boreholes/borewells are protected carefully to prevent polluted water from entering the water system.

As part of JGU’s commitment to the overall well being of members of the JGU community that includes all students, faculty and staff members, water samples taken from the Student Housing Blocks and the Food Court are regularly sent for testing to an accredited ISO 45001-2018 laboratory certified by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India.

The results meet the quality standards and are within the parameters set by the Indian Standards for Drinking Water as per the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) Specifications for Potable Water (IS – 10500-2012). Therefore, drinking water at the JGU campus is safe and is good for drinking as it meets the quality standards.

We are committed to reducing our water consumption year on year through community awareness initiatives and investment towards efficient building standards.
