Survey Reluctance in Tandipur

Our endline team reported reluctance to participate in the survey in Nadi Saahi, a hamlet in Tandipur with about 15-20 households. This area suffers from severe water shortages due to its elevation and previous pipeline leaks, which have further reduced supply. Residents were frustrated during the WASH section of the survey, questioning its relevance given their inadequate water supply. Some who received water complained about high chlorine levels affecting cooking. Though chlorine-related non-compliance isn't the major issue, I want to understand the recent chlorine readings from GV and if the dosing has stabilized.

We are sending a senior team to Nadi Saahi to engage with the community and seek support. I will keep you updated on the progress.
