The Groundwater Department (GWD) has raised concerns over the declining
number of borewell requisitions in the region. The dip in borewell
applications has raised questions about the water situation and its
availability for agricultural and domestic purposes. GWD officials have
attributed the drop to recent awareness campaigns promoting water
conservation and sustainable practices. While the reduction in borewell
digging is seen as a positive sign for water conservation efforts, it has
also sparked worries among farmers and stakeholders who heavily depend on
groundwater for irrigation. The GWD is now urging the public to strike a
balance between conserving water and meeting their essential water needs,
emphasizing the importance of responsible water usage.
