Rain Water harvesting simply means collecting Water for future use during the rainy season.
Rain water harvesting has been in existence since long ago in various parts of India where the Summer months were harsh and the rainy seasons were short and the rainfall insufficient. In States like Rajasthan, Punjab , parts of Maharashtra and Gujarat they still have a method of water conservation which is most effective. They start by collecting all the rain water that falls on their own houses.All the water that is falling on the roof of the house and other parts where it is clean is collected and channelised into an underground tank . This not only brings up the water level of their well , but is helpful for them during the harsh summer months.

Kerala has the blessings of western ghats and ever green forests. Perhaps it may be the reason why we don't have water problems due to frequent rains. Water is abundant in rivers and streams. Yet the place now where I am residing, after a particular depth it's rock. So, even if it's just near paddy fields, well touches its bottom at summer season...yet we have it for our necessities
It's the need of the hour as we are very fast moving to a very scary water crisis in the country. Our reckless attitude and in nits use has given rise to this scenario.We already have several water disputes involving states. In a situation all efforts should be made to conserve and preserve this invaluable resource!

Unless a mass awareness programme is launched involving all stake-holders,agitation and chest-beating won't be of any help!

I agree ! unless people come together and taking the initiative nothing can really work.The other option is fr the state governments to take steps like my state Karnataka is doing and make sure that people do whatever is necessary to preserve water..
well
i am happy to share that i am working in a company that provides water conservation solutions. we have installed 449 roof top rain water harvesting structures in rural Andhra
we have also innovated pond conservation systems where the rain water in the run away catchment areas are roted to filteration systems which is then transported to single village and multi village schemes
