Hyderabad, July 24 -- The Hyderabad Water Board on Thursday, July 23, organised an awareness programme, rally and public meeting at Co-op Bank Colony in Nagole to promote rainwater harvesting and groundwater conservation. The initiative aimed to encourage people to protect groundwater resources and ensure water security for future generations.

Located on the southern side of the Musi River in Nagole village, Co-op Bank Colony has around 400 houses. In 2012, following a request from the Residents Welfare Association (RWA), groundwater experts from the Hyderabad Water Board provided technical guidance to improve groundwater conservation in the colony. They advised residents to install rainwater harvesting structures in every house.
