Logo Designing Competition for Jalyukta Shivar Abhiyan

Jalyukta Shivar Abhiyan is a flagship program of Government of Maharashtra to make Maharashtra drought free by 2019. It was launched by Hon. Chief Minister Shri Devendra Fadnavis on 5 th December 2014.
The program aims at creating decentralized water conservation structures to ensure soil moisture security. In last two years, more than 4,01,609 works have been completed in 11,493 villages. The program has been received so well by the farmers that the cost of works undertaken by the local communities voluntarily is more than Rs. 570 cr. Villagers are involved in planning, execution and monitoring of the scheme. This is one of the rarest example of a government scheme that has
turned into a people’s movement.
Jalyukt Shivar Abhiyan is being implemented in an integrated manner with convergence of almost 13 schemes under 8 departments. Two years of implementation of Jalyukta Shivar Abhiyan has resulted in an increase in the groundwater level, water storage capacity, crop intensity, area under horticulture, crop productivity, fodder production and soil moisture security. It is estimated 15,75,386 TCM water has been conserved through Jalyukt Shivar Abhiyan during last two years which has potential to irrigate 21,21,278 hector of land.
