Story of Bengalurian- Vishwanath Srikantaiah who has recharged more than 1 lakh Wells in the city :- Vishwanath has been working really hard and smart as a team with local communities and until now has recharged 1 lakh wells and made 10,000 wells functional.
The 55-year-old activist has also received massive support from the well-diggers in the city. Vishwanath along with his team has set the target to recharge 1 million wells in the coming days and they are destined to achieve the goal.
Giving details about how the wells are being recharged, the water activist says, "These recharge wells will use rooftop rainwater and send it into the aquifers, helping groundwater conditions to improve. It will also help the traditional well diggers get a better livelihood."
The Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) including some few engineers have been constantly working to execute these water conservation tactics at the policy level which Dr. Vishwanath has been following with his 2 active members since more than 24 years.
