Water Scarcity  

These villagers in Rameswaram have only a puddle of water to bank on for their day-to-day consumption.

Dharmasthala temple chief Dr Veerendra Heggade has issued a notice and requested devotees to postpone their visit to Dharmasthala temple as the region is facing acute shortage of water

Despite the entire village going dry during summer, three wells of Gowdawada in Karwar, Karnataka, have never gone dry and are serving the residents of the village from March to May

Kalaburagi, a city that is rooted in history, is in North Karnataka. The city has a rich cultural heritage, but when it comes to its infrastructure, it begs a lot of improvement. Water shortage, scanty industries, augmented by dry weather only make the situation pathetic

While the borewells are running dry across Bengaluru, Bannerghatta Biological Park (BBP) officials expressed concerns over regular supply of water to animals.

With summer approaching fast, Karnataka might face acute water shortage this year too if proper planning is not done with immediate effect. Six taluks (sub-divisions) of Mandya have been declared drought-hit already.
