Water harvesting is the need of the hour. Demand of water consumption is out stripping the supply and we have to beg or threaten others to quench thirst of delhites. The contribution of government at centre or state level does not inspire any confidence. It is good to observe that now delhi government is activating the abandoned RENNY WELLS. I had seen at three to four feet water level along ring road while erecting 33kv(33000volts)tower line from Indraprasth Power Station to Kilokri village(very near to maharani bagh new delhi).
In fact not only water was gushing out but snakes also coming out from the pits being dug from tower foundation pits. Even in south Delhi, hand pumps were sunk to less than thirty feet. Now even in east delhi..water table is going down. It is possible that wars in less than fifty years may be fought for water.

It is amazing how government was advertising and telling individuals to harvest rain water. At least now government must wake up, action action plan for 2010 to 2011 needs to be announced. Five year plans need to be formulated and monitored by activating bhagidars.
