Governance

Water harvesting and conservation work was taken up through building check dams, rooftop rainwater harvesting, building percolation and drinking water wells, deepening of ponds, micro-irrigation, cropping pattern interventions and more.

This work won the CII-GBC National Award (Beyond the Fence Category) for Excellence in Water Management in 2008.
