Down to earth for Abuites.
Took this snap while driving down Abu Road with Harry & Mohan
Plummy with its mantle of green.
The fading sun smiling on thee,
The monsoons have retreated,
The fruit trees are preparing,
Hope for the fauna
To survive the onslaught of the coming,
SUMMER.
As the monsoons in Abu conclude by the end of September, with only an occasional shower lingering into early October, we must prepare for what comes next. The Rajasthan Government, along with local authorities, must develop a comprehensive action plan for effective water resource management.
Abu needs to address the ongoing water mismanagement and repairing the leaks in our existing reservoirs. Construing new dams is essential to meet the demands of our growing population. The concerned citizens of Abu have put forth countless proposals and recommendations, only to be met with the government’s slow response. It’s high time that we, the residents of Abu, take a stand and push the authorities to pay serious attention to the challenges we face.
I’ve heard through the grapevine that our household water supply will soon resume, but with significant restrictions. We may receive water every three days, and if the situation worsens, this could extend to every four days.
This is a heartfelt appeal to both tourists and fellow Abuites: Please take care not to dispose of garbage or waste into our precious Nakki Lake—it is our lifeline. During the summer months, especially in times of drought, the water from Nakki Lake sustains our homes. Let’s work together to protect this invaluable resource for the sake of our community’s future..
