Explanation:
While insufficient rainfall is a reason for drought, it's not the only reason. Poor selection of crops, inefficient methods of irrigation and imbalanced use of ground and stored water also lead to drought-now commonly known as 'man-made drought'. Maharashtra has been facing this man-made drought since 2012
