In semi-arid regions of Rajasthan every house had underground tankas to store the water for drinking purposes. These tankas are large and deep tanks which were built inside the main house or the courtyard. They were linked to the sloping roofs of the houses through a pipe. Rainwater falling on the rooftops would run down through the pipe and collect in the underground tankas. The rainwater collected was stored in the underground tankas providing drinking water till the next seasons
