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

We can provide drinking water to Dearth area like Latur by utilizing empty milk tankers going back to their native places like Solapur & Kolhapur roads. We can use water used by Tata power house (power plant located at Khopoli | Mumbai Pune road) to make the turbines work. That water can be sent through empty milk tankers going back to their native places from Mumbai.

Best option for the government is to have a de-salination plant for Mumbai which would take care of the water problems for city and the rain water in lakes can be transferred through pipelines to other parts of Maharashtra. Similarly throughout the coast Maharashtra government should make 3 more de-salination plants since it is blessed with such a huge coastline. Please consider this it will be a lifetime solution for Maharashtra.

As per the weather forecast, India is expecting a heavy rainfall this monsoon in most part of country, infact many of places are seem to be flood hit as well Looking at current situation over nation there is drought all over My suggestion is to increase the heights of all the dams ( as done in Gujarat last year) and also build quickly build new dams between every two states on mutual sharing basis Than there can be huge water reserve for rest and also floods can be avoided

A news item said Govt is planting 2 Crores trees this year. For a change let us give the ownership of the trees to people of the region. Now these trees will be under care of the people and will not die. When I say ownership means they should be given permission to cut and sale the wood after minimum 5 years and for maximum 50 % of the trees. Let us try with RED SANDER ( RAKTA CHANDAN) trees for medicine. Other could be Poplar for making Match sticks. Very common in Punjab.

Spend money and manpower for water related projects rather than Bullet train. Let water flow through pipes all over Maharashtra. Provide solar operated pumps to pump out water from deep wells. It is really pain to hear some one falling in dry well.
Stop water wasting for cleaning cars. Let the cars be dirty for next two months till rains arrive. Use less water for bath. Use bore well water for washing clothes & utensils.
