Water Bodies Development
StateHarvesting and preserving water are the cornerstones of any farming enterprise. After the establishment of the fountainhead, all agricultural activities will prosper. This makes more sense in terms of increasing land revenue.
Global Vikas Trust began its campaign in 2018 by addressing the communities of Parli's water security problems. This was accomplished by combining machinery labour with voluntary labour (shramdaan). To work on building farm ponds and lakes, villagers flocked outside in large numbers early in the morning and stayed until late at night. Communities were encouraged to assist using music and dance.
