Success Story

Villagers in remote villages rely on traditional water harvesting structures, which provide them water in dry periods. Villagers in remote villages rely on traditional water harvesting structures, which provide them water in dry periods. Kushlawa is a village of Jodhpur district of Rajasthan. Like many villages, drinking water is a major problem here. Dhapu Devi is an old woman of 73 years of age. Her family has 10 members. Dependant on farming affected by erratic rains, the family lives in poverty and had no facility to store drinking water. Dhapu and other members of her family had to walk 4 kilometres everyday to bring water.

With the help of GRAVIS, the family has got a new taanka. The taanka has relieved the family from the pain of water fetching drudgery. It is now a new life for them. They can have enough water for drinking, the health is improving and they are saving money and time. 3 girls from the family have started going to school regularly as they don t need to go to fetch water every day.

As an impact of said interventions, now members of families started take a bath in routine. This protects them from various infectious diseases. The time saved is being used in farming and the money saved can now be used for buying other necessary items. We are happier and healthier. Our new taanka has given us a new life says Dhapu Devi.
