图尔荪托乎提老人对家乡饮水味道的记忆，印证了新疆农村群众饮水质量的提升过程。据和田市农村供水饮水管理站副主任阿不都卡地尔·阿不都拉介绍，为了让群众告别缺水、喝涝坝水的历史，1995年和田地区农村组织打井提取地下水，但地下水含氟量、硬度、碱度等多项指标均超过饮用水标准，只解决了群众对用水量的需求。2017年起，当地开始实施农村饮水安全巩固提升工程，中央和地方仅在和田市阿克恰勒乡就投资1400多万元，建了自来水厂，采用15道工序处理苦咸水，截至目前，全乡5500多人喝上了放心安全的自来水。
这是天山南北越来越多贫困农牧村庄饮水质量安全得到保障的缩影。记者从新疆维吾尔自治区水利厅了解到，2012年-2018年底，新疆农村饮水安全巩固提升工程累计解决了300多万贫困人口的饮水安全问题。今明两年内，新疆还将建设运行120项饮水安全工程，帮助剩余36.1万贫困人口用上放心安全的饮用水，实现不漏一户、不落一人。
