Over the past year, Sahyog has successfully renovated a total of 33 old wells. The wells are now in full operations and 122 families in 13 villages have access to safe drinking water.
The work involved in renovating wells required construction of parapet walls and lining the irrigation channels.
The wells are the major source of drinking water but they also provide water for irrigation and are critical to the success of crops. The annual monsoon rains replenish the wells, in time to provide water for irrigating the spring harvest.
Thanks to the renovation of wells, farmers will have access to water for irrigating their crops and their family and community members will have access to drinking water.
