Have you ever realized what is the most important thing to survive..
Yes you are right, its WATER....
I am also a typical human being...
Realized how important water is while fasting (Ramadan) for the first time during 10th grade...
My father dealt in casing pipes then...He frequently used to visit many villages for business purpose...Many a times, I used to accompany him...That's when I realized that most of the villages faced the problem of water scarcity...Life there was miserable...Every drop of water was precious to them...
The village named "RUI" was hit by this problem the most...
Since then I recall this dream during every Ramadan and wish that someday I will live it and will witness the Smiling faces of those villagers who are living a life of misery...
Its the month of Ramadan and I am dreaming this dream again...
Block & Tehsil: Ghatia
District: Ujjain
Population: ~2000
Location: Along Ujjain-Nagda Road, 18 km from Ujjain
That too doesn't supply water throughout the year...
10% of the farmers in RUI are financially stable and can afford running a tractor in order to bring water...
But rest 90% have to walk to and fro in order to cater their needs...
Primary and middle school buildings are there but the children belonging to the poor families are unable to attend those as they are involved in bringing water...
This tube-well will be connected to a tank (via Submersible Pump Set) having multiple outlets...
Groundwater is around 250-300 ft underground...
and also the permission of the Sarpanch for Tube-well Installation...
"I am going LOUD with not only my dream...
Yes you are right, its WATER....

The Dream:
I dreamed a dream to eliminate this water problem at-least from the village "RUI"...Since then I recall this dream during every Ramadan and wish that someday I will live it and will witness the Smiling faces of those villagers who are living a life of misery...
