Describe the rain fed tanks of south india
Answers
Answer:
In 'Water-The Elixir of Life,' Sir C V Raman says that the rain-fed tanks are a very common sight in South India and play a vital role in South Indian agriculture. They are often neglected and not maintained well. Some of these tanks are very large and it is a cheering and beautiful sight to see the sun rise and set over them when they are full. The water in these tanks is compared to the eyes in a human face as it reflects different moods according to the weather. It is bright and gay when the sun is shining and dark and gloomy when the sky is overcast with clouds.
These rain-fed tanks are often shallow but it is less evident as their water is silt-laden and reflects the light back. The silt is largely responsible for the characteristic color of the water of these tanks.
