Restoration:

• The well was cleared of the garbage and the wild vegetation growing around it and desilted.

Almost 500 tonnes of garbage were removed.

• The well was dewatered. This water was used in the Goshala as well as by the municipality to water plants by the roads.
• The well was desilted and at almost 70ft depth the base of the well was reached, which has natural aquifers.
• The wall of the well has been raised 3’ and enforced with a 6’ high fencing to avoid accidents yet provide an easy view of it.
• The surrounding area are made greener with plantations under Haritha Haram scheme by the government.

Rainwater Harvesting: To keep the well healthy and running and serving its purpose, the runoff water must be captured, filtered, and allowed into the well.

• The well is at a downward slope. A lot of water from the 100ft road flows towards the well. An 18” X 18” trench is made at the periphery of the well to capture the runoff from the road.
• This water is passed through silt traps and then channelised into a series of recharge pits.
• A large rectangular recharge pit with injection bore is also given where the maximum water flows from the road to recharge the ground levels.
