Ground report from last village before Indo-Pak border in #Rajasthan

Women stand in the queues, day and night, walk kms everyday for each drop of water.

Raji (26) and her friends celebrate after spotting a water tanker for the first time @DeccanHerald

Children of this village skip their school to help their mothers in carrying water from tanker to home.
Since tanker had arrived for the first time, most of the households here wanted to lift utmost water for their house hold chores #Barmer #Watercrisis #rajasthan @DeccanHerald

72 years after Independence, for sizeable population in #Rajasthan, #Water is a dream!

Women in border villages end up spending 4-6 hrs a day, to carry water pitchers to their homes.

Most of them suffer with, back pain miscarriage & low BP

Availability of water, easy access to Pakistan, education are the major issues in border villages of #Rajasthan ;

Both Congress and BJP are offering poll planks but all they need is the basic commodity - WATER and PEACE

Worth taking a selfie with this resilient desert soul Raji, who walks kilometres and spends hours to fetch water. But she manages to giggle , offer you water from the pitcher she has just filled. #Respect
