QUESTION
Indiscriminate drilling of new borewells by MLAs in Dharwad and Belgaum districts, Karnataka - What can be done ?

Dear all,

powerful politicians Sriramulu and Santhosh Laad, MLAs, have drilled more than 300 borewells on farmers' land at Kalaghatagi, Dharwad and Belgaum districts. This has impacted the local groundwater table. At Nigadi Gram Panchayat, out of 50 drilled borewells, only 2 have water.

A single person can fight against powerful MLAs. So here I am requesting India Water Portal to take some action and suggest some action measures.
