PM Modi said monsoons have come and we should once again focus on water conservation.
Water conservation is a way to render service to the nation, said Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday and urged citizens to focus on rainwater harvesting amid ongoing monsoon. "The monsoons have come. Let us once again focus on water conservation. When the cloud rain they just don't rain for us, they also rain for our future generation. The rainwater gets collected on the ground, it increases the groundwater level, and that is why I believe water conservation is a way of service to the nation," said PM Modi while addressing the "Mann Ki Baat" radio programme. PM Modi said there are lots of people around us who do the good deed of water conservation as their duty and talked about Satchidananda Bharati from Uttarakhand's Pauri Garhwal. "Bharti ji is a teacher and he has imparted a very good education to the people through his deeds. Today, due to his hard work, the huge water crisis in the Ufrainkhal area of Pauri Garhwal has come to an end. Where people used to face water scarcity, today there is a continuous supply of water throughout the year," PM Modi informed.More Related News
