Rain water Harvesting [ rwh ] in Karnataka

[venkyn]

Karnataka Govt Science council in iisc has provided good information on the method to get the rain water harvesting.
Many folks in the market give inappropriate information to sell their product, based on the way the marketing folk told things it is so misguiding and not be trusted.

A book on Rain water harvesting.

Rain water Cell

some important points to i noted from the website.

- The water should not be let into borewell directly from rwh filter
- If the ground contains rock, no need of rwh, but how to convinence govt officials?
- If water is collected it is better to keep in a different sump and then charge the borewell.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the info.

It is right that Rain water should not be directed in to borewell. I have seen a case of collapsed borewell due to it.
