उत्तर
Yes, a few years back there was an acute scarcity of water in my village. To solve the problem, villagers made collective offers and cleaned up and repaired the pond and all the wells of the village to make them usable again. Tons of garbage were taken out from these water bodies. The hard work of villagers bore fruit and even today they are fulfilling their water requirement from these ponds and wells.
