The water crisis has had a devastating impact on the people of the village. Residents are forced to spend hours each day fetching water from a huge well that appears to be drying. In a video, shared by news agency ANI, women can be seen climbing down the well and collecting dirty water using plastic tumblers.
After carefully scaling to the top of the well, by using its ridges as support, the women then filter the dirty water using sieves before transferring it to earthen pots.
