Question 3

There are ten tubewells in a lane of fifty houses. What could be the long term impact on the water table?

Answer

Ten tube-wells in a lane of fifty houses can lead people to unlimited exploitation of the groundwater which can leads to depletion of the water table in the long term. If this happens then the people of the fifty houses use the ten tube wells in the need of water, then the water required by them is then drawn from the ground. If these tube-wells are also being used for long time, then the ground water level will be reduce and would go on falling. The rainwater harvesting is a method which is mainly used to conserve water at the ground level for future use or in the emergency times.
