Description
Description | A check dam project funded by the World Bank was completed two years ago in Salkoh village, Kangra district, under the Shriram Gareli Khad Jal Upbhogta Samuh (Water User Committee) Bhadwar-1 scheme. The project aimed to irrigate 200 hectares of farmland and benefit 360 farmers. The infrastructure includes six water tanks and pipelines with a storage capacity of 13 lakh litres. However, the tanks were filled only once for testing and have remained dry since then, leading to irrigation challenges for the farmers. |
