( example Latur )
Climate change has made supply even more Unpredictable & Unreliable, resulting in extreme drought & floods. Which requires us to save rainwater for future use, – ‘not only for 8 months after rains’, but may be for another year & year after that.
Only place to save this rainwater for future is belly of Mother Earth & only way is Underground Rainwater Harvesting.

Beurocrates should be restricted for the overall developments and law & order in Bharat which is in a critical situation presently.

Flushless toilets are coming up fast as the answer to both the water availability problem and the water pollution problem.
