Rainwater harvesting alone is the best way to save fresh water. There are many benefits to storing rainwater. With the amount of rainwater that mixes with the sea each year, our nation's drinking water needs can be met for ten years.
Billions of rupees are being spent to meet the drinking water needs of the Indian nation. Public funds are being saved by educating the people on the need for rainwater harvesting.
The government has enacted a number of laws and advertisements to address the need for rainwater harvesting. Rainwater harvesting is included in primary education lessons to make children aware of the need for rainwater. Rainwater harvesting tanks are installed in every government office and in every government building. Laws have also been enacted requiring the rainwater harvesting system to be located in the newly constructed building.
