This time the heat came quickly and along with it the thirst also deepened. The Central Government's thousand crore 'Har Ghar Jal Yojana' expressed helplessness in the face of rising temperatures. Well, the reality is that now 32 percent of the country does not even have to wait for the summer season to face water shortage, water remains here throughout the year. It has to be understood that providing water to the huge population of 1.44 billion cannot be left to the government alone. If the society becomes active today towards heat and drying water resources, then they will not have to face this crisis in the next summer. Understand one thing that all the problems related to nature have no solution either in the present or in the future. For this we will have to take refuge in the past. Some silt will have to be removed, some from the dried water reserves created by our ancestors and some from our own understanding, see if even a little rain occurs then the society can become water-rich. If we look back a few decades, today the areas that are crying for water used to get water for both their fields and their homes with the help of their local sources. There came a time when tube wells started being planted indiscriminately, and by the time they were careful, the underground quota had been cleared. Society is once again being forced to turn to water sources that have become a thing of the past ponds, wells, stepwells. But once again the generation gap is visible, the people who took care of the traditional ponds got busy in some other work. Now the technique of saving the pond has disappeared. In every part of India, there is evidence of water structures and water systems created by the society according to its country, time and circumstances in all periods of time, from the Vedic period to before the British rule, in which ponds are everywhere. In the desert, those ponds were compared to oceans, in Kannada they were called Kaire and in Tamil they were called Airi. Even the Rig Veda mentions irrigated farming, wells and systems for drawing water from depth. Remains of excellent water supply systems have been found in Harappa and Mohenjodaro. Kautilya's Arthashastra, dated 321-297 BC, is famous, which states that ponds were built on state land. The society itself used to collect the material for making the pond. Those who did not cooperate in this work or damaged the sails of the pond would have been punished by the state.
