Chhattisgarh: The heat of the sun is constantly becoming sharp. In such a situation, Chhattisgarh is also struggling with severe water crisis. The water crisis is also such that no one wants to marry his girl in a village adjacent to the capital. Those who had relationships broke. The girl told the decree that if there is no water, there is no marriage. In such a situation, all the schemes of the government seem to be asking for water.
There is no Naxal -affected village of Rewa village Chhattisgarh. Rather it is a village adjacent to the capital Raipur. But the water scarcity here is two decades old. The situation is that the boys of this village are not even getting married. Because no one wants to give their girl in this village. The latest case happened with Akshay Dehria of the village itself. The girl came to see Akshay. The family welcomed the guests a lot, but as soon as the girl came to know that there is a huge water crisis in this village, the girl refused to marry. Due to this, the whole family is very sad.
Struggle for water in the village starts from three o’clock in the morning
The family is now demanding the government to install tubewells in the house. There are many boys like Akshay in this village who are not getting married only because there is no water in the village. The people of the village have to go 2-3 kilometers away to take drinking water. This struggle of water starts every day from 3 am. According to the villagers, the problem of drinking water in this village is almost 2 decades old. During this period, Chhattisgarh Government Minister Shiv Dehria and Union Minister Ramesh Bais were also from this region. But after taking votes, no public representative overturned towards this village and saw it again.
People usually begin with the morning walk or worship of the people, but the people of Rewa village have anxiety with the anxiety of drinking water in the morning. The bicycle and motorcycle leaves from the house of this village at 3 am with water caps. People are forced to bring water from village Kukra, about 2-3 km away. The development plans of the government have not reached here. Rather, this village is adjacent to the capital, so the government’s tap-water scheme also reached here, taps were also installed in the village, but there was no water. According to the villagers, the work of Nal-Jal scheme has also been incomplete for years.
According to the State Water Resources Minister and Deputy Chief Minister Arun Saw, there is no situation like severe water crisis in the state. There is a problem of drinking water somewhere, it will be repaired soon. BJP MLA Khushwant says that water will be delivered to the village soon.
Water crisis causing social disdain
Overall, how serious the government and public representatives are due to the problem of drinking water of Rewa village, it is clearly revealed, but this struggle of water of the villagers is now becoming the cause of social disdain. Due to the problem of drinking water, marriage breakdown is not only for the villagers but also for the state government that makes big claims of development.
