The Rain Water Harvesting (RWH) scheme, a brainchild of Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa, was launched in 2001 in a bid to rejuvenate water sources and improve ground water levels in the parched southern state. The scheme has helped people in water-starved regions such as Chennai by raising water tables in most neighbourhoods, winning support from activists and local residents long dependent on groundwater for their daily needs. |Percolation Well in Vadodara| |Injection Well in Ahmedabad| |Rainwater Harvesting System and Solution in Surat| |Rainwater harvesting in Indore| |Rainwater harvesting in Raipur| |Rainwater harvesting maintenance|
