Paatil assured Zimbabwe of India’s commitment to providing technical assistance and cooperation to address water-related challenges, particularly in areas like irrigation system design, improved water supply, and irrigation efficiency.

Paatil also stressed the role of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership in fostering international partnerships for sustainable water resource management, ensuring food security, and supporting growth.

In a separate meeting with Tanzania’s Water Minister, discussions revolved around a potential Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to enhance collaboration in areas like water conservation, rainwater harvesting, and groundwater management. Tanzania expressed gratitude for India’s contributions to water supply projects, especially through WAPCOS, and both sides pledged to bolster technical cooperation.
