Take measures to improve underground water table [1]

DH News Service, Shrinivaspur:

Rejuvenation of ponds and lakes should be given top priority in order to improve the underground water table. New ponds and tanks should be constructed where ever rainwater can easily sink into the ground, suggested education expert M Shriramareddy.

Speaking to media persons here on Monday, he said, Gujarat government was the right example, in this regard. The new ponds and tanks constructed in that State and also, the projects meant for ensuring the sinking of rainwater into the ground, were all fruitful.
