Water management initiatives by Sevavardhini emphasise sustainable solutions through grassroots participation and scientific methods. The flagship Jaldoot programme has trained over 100 individuals who now implement water conservation practices, some extending their work beyond villages to district levels. Rainwater harvesting, particularly rooftop collection, is encouraged as a simple and scalable method for groundwater recharge. With support from MindTickle, the Bangali Barav step-well in Jejuri was restored and now supplies clean drinking water.
