An investment to the sum exceeding GEL 9 million will be required for arrangement of water supply   to over 7000 customers. Unfortunately, there is no water supply system existing in the named villages and within a 1- year period we will be able to provide a 24-hour supply of potable water for the local population “, - stated the Vice Premier.
