Development of political parties through electoral bonds does not solve people struggle for water.

  If we want to measure development in any area, we look at basic facilities like roads, electricity, proper nutrition and water, but with the arrival of summer, villagers in some of the driest areas of Rajasthan have started searching for groundwater.

Only 10 percent of this desert state can be classified as water resources. The remaining 90 percent is dependent on groundwater for drinking and irrigation. On March 14, 2024, the Election Commission of India made public the figures of election donations given by SBI, in which political parties have used thousands of crores of rupees in their share. Future gaming company was attacked by ED in 2022 but this company has issued bonds worth Rs. 1368 crores. It is clear that industrialists often trample upon common people for their own political gains.

Every year some report or research shows that the groundwater level in Rajasthan is falling by 1 meter per year. Studies show that out of 302 areas identified as sources of groundwater, at least 219 areas have been overexploited. But the government ignores the data present in the reports.

Sixty kilometers ahead in Sanchore town in south Rajasthan, hundreds of residents have started digging for water. So that they can drink water. The water from the excavation is very salty, the people there complained but no one helped. Government work is done only to add to the photo gallery, that is why sometimes someone helps.

Like Sanchore, there are many villages and cities in India. At least a dozen of villages in Chitalwana tehsil are facing severe drinking water crisis. Narmada Canal came to this area in 2008. It provides drinking water to 500 villages in the region and to Jalore and Sanchaur, but has neglected the tehsil, where most of the residents work as labourers.

Since the water table is saline, the only way to obtain potable water is by digging pits. If they want to drink water, the villagers have to dig a new pit every two or three days.

 There is not a single source of water in Patparipura village of Bayana in Bharatpur in eastern Rajasthan. There is a well, but the water is not fit for drinking. Villagers walk 3 km to the Uttar Pradesh border to fetch water from another village

Water leakage from pipes and paper leak before exams: Harmful

  The capital of Maharashtra received a mere 3.7 mm of rain, resulting in 59% less rainfall than the normal 9 mm. Sensing the danger of this water shortage, BMC officials announced the decision to implement a series of water cuts in the city, first by 5 percent and later by 10 percent from June 5. Around 12 thousand people live in Borivali’s Eksar Dongri. An elderly woman tells us that she has been struggling with the problem of water for many years. She is now 70 years old and even today she is struggling for water. Due to the scorching heat all around the country, the government has closed schools so that children can stay safe from the scorching heat at home. On the other hand, there is no hurry to see the other picture, which is the failure of the government, where children run after tankers for water all day long. Neither the children are able to escape the heat nor are they able to study properly. This is the negligence of the entire system somewhere. More than 25% of Mumba...

Jharkhand’s heritage needs a new lease of life.

The artworks carved on the walls are not just a symbol of beauty. These walls are a symbol of Jharkhand’s rich heritage, which is known by the name of Padma Fort. Buildings are living witnesses of any tradition and history. They give a sense of historical significance along with the cultural significance of the society and environment of their time. The centuries-old heritage still reminds us of glorious history and tradition. This beautiful heritage, which contains everyone’s memories and stories, has started to collapse due to lack of maintenance. Padma Fort is located at a distance of about 22 kilometers from Hazaribagh district of Jharkhand. It attracts people every day. People of all ages come to see this beautiful building. The Raj Fort complex is quite large. There is also a Hawa Mahal and Rani Talab surrounded by stairs on all sides. The beautiful heritage of the Padma royal family is now seen in a dying state. The Jharkhand government or the head of the royal family, Saurabh N...
