Right to safe water for every citizen has not been ensured yet because water has not been mentioned as a Human Right in the Bangladesh Water Act 2013. National water coverage is about 86 percent. Only 10 percent population has access to piped-line water supply service. The national budget for safe water supply is urban biased for the fiscal year of 2014-15. The especial budget has not been allocated for safe water for hard-to-reach areas viz. char, costal, drought, flood, haor and hilly. Though local government is accountable to ensure safe water but LGIs are not aware regarding their roles, responsibilities and mandate to provide safe water to the people. The main objective of this paper is to examine to what extent the VDCs in close cooperation with LGIs, NGOs and INGOs are able to provide safe water to establish Human Right to the hard-to-reach people in Bangladesh.
