The prerequisite is to examine state water resources management policy framework, based on which only a technical perspective can be provided. Would Belle GP provide an extract to webmaster for publication on BV? | |

I request somebody to take initiative on De-silting of BOBBRYA KERE too. If handled properly it can provide ample water to whole of Moodubelle, Padubelle and beyond for generations. An overhead tank of big size at nearby high terrain will enable gravity flow. Governments are sanctioning big money for the rural water these days. I wish our Moodubelle gets a share of such development. When the land is wet, water table too will remain at healthy level. Creation of deep reservoir by big de-silting only can achieve good result. Our Hebbar already has some fair good experience in such job and this may help us. Technically sound people like Philip Mudartha may be able to provide more light on this at his leisure! | |
