Free Drinking Water

Last Updated: September 30, 2022

Provide free drinking water for students, staff and visitors (e.g. drinking water fountains).

Free and safe drinking water is provided at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham. There are more than 50 drinking water fountains installed across all campuses, conveniently located in academic blocks, libraries, hostels, and labs. The university uses water treatment technologies depending on the quality of the source water and ensures water is devoid of physical, chemical, and biological contaminants. The selection of the technology is such that water is not wasted unnecessarily during the treatment process. The university encourages students, faculty, and visitors to bring reusable bottles and refill them for free at the water fountains. This helps to reduce the use of single-use plastic bottles.

In addition to the drinking water fountains, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham also has a number of water coolers and dispensers located throughout its campuses. These provide access to chilled and filtered drinking water.

The university is committed to providing its students, faculty, and visitors with access to clean and safe drinking water.
