Sri Sri Ravi Shankar inspects Vedavathi River Rejuvenation project sites
Chikmagalur, Karnataka
August 3, 2017
While most of Karnataka is going dry and the Cauvery remains embroiled in a dispute, hope is emerging from Vedavathi river basins in Chikmagalur, Hassan, and Chitradurga. The water landscape of the three districts has been changing with The Art of Living's Vedavathi River Rejuvenation Project.
With 6786 recharge structures across 5477sq.km area, this project will provide easy access to water to 15 lakh people in 1097 villages.
During his interaction with farmers, local officials and media, Gurudev emphasized the need to grow trees such as neem, banyan, kadamba and peepal which attract rains instead of eucalyptus and acacia trees that deplete huge amounts of groundwater.
After his visit to Vedavathi basin, Gurudev will inspect and review Kumudavathi river rejuvenation work on Thursday. The Art of Living is currently working on reviving 30 rivers across India.
