The Mahanadi's longest tributary, the Shivnath, has borne the brunt of urbanisation and industrialisation but the impact has been felt the most by residents. We capture their story in pictures.

The Shivnath River is the longest tributary of the Mahanadi River. It was the first river in India whose water rights (23.5 km stretch of the Shivnath River in Durg district, Chattisgarh) were sold to a private company Radius Water Limited (RWL) 16 years ago.

The concepts of System of Rice Intensification help farmers adopt practices based on their local conditions. Farmers, and an SRI expert in Chhattisgarh, show how it has worked for them.

Muneswar and more than 170 farmers in Ambikapur, Chhattisgarh have no regrets after shifting over from traditional agricultural methods of farming to the System of Rice Intensification (SRI) method. Why would they? Most of them have been overwhelmed by the kind of returns they have got compared to their investments.

"The crop yield has increased to more than two and half times, and we are getting better returns," says Kisan Naihar Sai, an SRI beneficiary.

What is System of Rice Intensification (SRI)?

Hi,
We are a residential complex in Bangalore, India

We have 2 overhead tanks in 2 adjacent buildings to which water is pumped through a common underground reservoir. Presently we have 2 separate pipelines for both the tanks running in parallel till 75% distance and then the 2nd pipeline extends onward.s
The pumps have been in use for 15 Years and so I presume they would not be very energy efficient.

Hello,

Sumersible pump is stuck at a depth of 180 ft together with 7 lengths of GI Pipe after working for 7 years. For removing the pump, people are asking for 30000 rupees and are not assuring that the pump will be in working condition after retrieval. Please let me know any safe technique for removing the pump. The pump may have got stuck due to sand accumulation .

Hello,

I have 15 year old borewell with total depth of 175 ft. Bore casing dia is 3 inch upto 80 ft and after that it is 1.5 inch for further 95 ft. Earlier I was using 3 inch submersible pump and it was working properly. But now since water level has gone below 100ft, the submersible pump is not working. 1.5 inch submersibble pumps are not available. Hence please suggest how water can be pumped through 1.5 inch casing?

Regards

Suraj kumar
