What we need to do is to Harness the natural resources such as Water and sunlight. If we do that than half of our problem is solved. Once I heard the news that the water sufficient for 3 years of use for saurashtra and kutch flew to see from Narmada within 3 days. If we harness the water properly, we can do with even 1/4th of rain. however we do not have the proper water management.There is widespread damage to rainwater channels and too much ground water has been drawn already.
The water crisis is everywhere as the natural resources simply cannot support the population.
I have seen the photographs of vilage ralegan siddhi before and after anna's movemet. Dry desert like village turned into lush green garden with appropriate steps of water management.
The dry water scarce village was turned into a picnic spot. This can happen with each and every village . Water is required is an effort.
People pity farmers. Actually i hold them partly responsible. They are lazy and unwilling to use their brain. They have no co ordination and cooperation. If you remember TV program called Saurtashtra ni Jaladhara. It is the story of dry area turned green by the efforts of villagers near my home town. They bought JCB and surveyed the land and build hundreds of ponds and check dams and turned area into a totally green one. This sort of effort is required. However those lazy idiot farmers prefers to suicide rather than make an coordinated effort.
It is very necessary some leadership may emerge from village who work in this area. There are village management institutes but they have not produced the required leadership.
Sawmi Ramdev and patanjali make this movement a mass movement and turn the destiny of the country and farmers in particular.
Yesterday i read the news that one district of Gujarat produced Rs 300 crore of pomegranates. Kutch is a desert district. However they are getting rich by farming. In south Gujarat also, Farmers have palace like bunglows.
Some body need to take the leadership and make some right efforts. If proper steps are taken, it is not at all difficult to turn Vidarbha and other parts of Maharashtra drought free for ever.
