2013 - Water Conservation Year

Some fresh hopes arise as the Union Cabinet decides to observe year 2013 as the 'Water Conservation Year'. The government has decided that widespread mass awareness drives will be organised throughout the year. People will be made aware about the need for conserving water. But our experience tells us that more than the people, it the government's "left hand does not know what the right hand does" kind of policies that ails us. Still something is better than nothing. Let us hope that we and the government take some action before it is too late.
