Irregular monsoons over an extended period have resulted in frequent water scarcity for the agricultural sector. While prompt relief in times of scarcity must be provided, long-term measures to ensure prevention of such situations must be taken.
Government has decided to implement multiple programs for water conservation in an integrated manner with convergence across all the concerned departments. ”Jalyukt Shivar Abhiyan” has been launched to make Maharashtra drought free by 2019. We aim to make five thousand villages drought free in the 1st year of the Abhiyan.

We look forward to getting your suggestions on how the program can be further enhanced and implemented successfully

The Govt has banned use of all plastic below 20 microns in the state. However plastic below that level is rampantly used all over the state. Can the Gove not ban its production & take serious action / prosecute those who are found manufacturing the plastic that is not permitted? If Govt can manufacturing Gutka , why not plastic? Mr Kendrekar very successfully stopped plastics in Aurangabad. It took him just one month. Is the political will lacking?

Govt has no control on digging Borewells & wells. Hence,
1. Put a blanket ban on digging 'Borewells' without permission of the local Govt Authorities. 2. Issue licences to existing & future borewells.
3. Put a limit on the depth of the borewells.
4. Make 'Rain Water Harvesting' compulsory for each & every building in the state & give incentives for existing buildings & Subsidy to poor.
This will help in preserving the underground water tables & help sustain the environment.

Also sewage treatment plants to be set up all along cities and villages, and all activities other than drinking, and cooking to be done only with sewage treated water. Lot of water is wasted in flushing, gardening, washing cars, floors, rooms etc. Mandate law start with schools, hospitals, universities, government building then to large residential societies.
Ultimately every house will neeed to have two water connections.

Trees absorb CO2 and prevent soil erosion, our whole efforts should be to plant maily food, fruit bearing trees, and also chech water quality which sowing seeds.
On long term basis we can put desalination plants near coastal region and if possible transport these water to drought prone areas, as already gas and oil is already transported through pipelines, who not water.

Dear CM,
a) Only option to start with plant more trees, and that too flower,food, fruit bearing trees needs to be planted all along roads, which will also give employment to lot of people. Similarly there are so many mountains where we can plant orchids, fruit, dudhi, so many vegetables, we can collect rainwater during rainy season along these mountains, this in turn will again increase rural income and move towards food security, underground water table will improve.

शेततळी बांधण्याबरोबरच नदी, ओढा खोलीकरण व विस्तृतीकरण , तलावातील गाळ उपसा . अश्या कामात जास्तीत जास्त निधी उपलब्ध करून द्यावा । जेणेकरून पावसाळ्यातील प्रत्येक थेंबाचा शेतकऱ्यांसाठी तसेच नागरिकांसाठी उपयोग होईल । शासनाने पुढाकार घेण्याची गरज आहे . प्रत्येक गावाची गरज व उपलब्डता लक्ष्यात घेवून वेगवेगळे प्रकल्प हाती घ्यावेत । जनता कधीही आपल्यासोबत आहे । धन्यवाद . . .
