QUESTION
Will a bore-well lose water to neighborhood if left unused?

Hello,

I have two bore wells on my premises. One of which is being used regularly. Another one is unused as the first one is giving sufficient water for current usage, Recently I was advised (maybe wrongly) that if I do not use water from the bore well, the underlying water will flow to neighborhood bore wells, which are continuously used. This will lead to long term shortage of water in my unused bore well. So I should keep using the second bore well as well. Is this logical and correct advise? Please help in understanding.

Thanks
