Over the last few decades, Nepal has made significant progress in providing people with safe drinking water. 83.4% of Nepalis have access to safe drinking water, according to UNDP Development Human Development Report, 2014,

That means more than 8 in 10 Nepalis have safe drinking water.

But there are some districts where almost half of the people still don’t have safe drinking water. Here are those districts:

  1. Achham
  2. Dang
  3. Salyan
  4. Dailekh
  5. Kalikot
  6. Jajarkot
