Answers
A very good morning to all the dignitaries present over here. It is my great pleasure to welcome you this morning.
In current time everywhere people are talking about shortage of water resources, depletion of ground water level, drought in many part of world and implementation of rain water harvesting etc. Depletion of water resources has become a global problem for the world now and major fact is that this is happening when the earth is covered with about 71% water. Actually useful water is available only 3.5%, other is Ocean water that can’t be used.To face and solve any such issue social awareness is must for all. The whole world is now united to solve such global issue of water depletion.
Cycle of nature is completely depends on water. Until the water evaporates and mix into air there will be no rain on earth which causes damaged crops and worst situation of drought all over the place. Every living being whether they are human, animal or plants requires water to survive here. Not only for drinking water is essential for domestic use like washing, cleaning, moping, cooking and even for agriculture and industrial use including power plant. In many areas of India water is so less in quantity even fresh water is about to nil. In those places people have to either too much charge or to go hundreds of miles far to get potable water for their daily use. Water is so important constituent for all living beings that if we still not find the solution for conserving it, survival on earth would be in danger.
United Nation (UN) celebrates 22nd March as “World Water Day” to provide the importance of fresh water and supporting the management of fresh water resources. Government of India (GOI) is also taking various steps for augmentation, conservation and efficient management of water resources by creating social awareness among people. GOI and state government has prepared several departments to create awareness in people, such as dedicated minister for “Drinking Water and Sanitation Ministry” to rejuvenate “Ganga and other Rivers”. Central Ground Water Board is also taking steps for regulation of ground water development and for promoting rain water harvesting and artificial recharge. Spiritual leader “Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev” has created awareness by “Rally for Rivers” campaign. In this campaign, he gave the simplest solution to rejuvenate India’s rivers by maintaining minimum of one kilometer tree cover on river sides. Forest trees can be planted either on government land or tree-based agriculture brought in on farm land. This will ensure our rivers are fed throughout the year by the moist soil. This will also reduce floods, drought and soil loss which would also result in terms of increase in farmers’ incomes.
Conclusion
Water is the base of life, for example, if you just leave a pan with water for few days then something will definitely grow out of it. This shows that how water supports all forms of life on earth. Be it humans, animals, or plants and trees or any other living species, their survival is totally dependent on water. If they are deprived of water then it becomes difficult for the species to survive even for a shorter duration. As a most intelligent species on earth it is our prime responsibility that we must save water so that all forms of life could flourish on earth and maintain a proper balance of the ecosystem.
Thank you all for your patient hearing.
