The Minister said that in the last two years at the national level, only the Ministry of Economy has allocated over 10 million euro and is implementing water supply projects. Within the framework of the EUR 3.7 million project from which 10 thousand citizens will benefit, works are also being carried out on the water supply network in Bardh i Madh, Lismir and Mesabardh, while today works also commenced in the village of Graboc.
