The average annual rainfall in Assam is 2818mm, of which Guwahati alone receives 1698mm. However, the impact of rainfall in the state is zonal and not uniform throughout the state. As a result some areas are inundated, others remain rain-deprived. At this point it is wise to invest in rain water harvesting.
Assam demonstrates huge potential for successful rainwater harvesting. If implemented on a larger scale, it could be instrumental in curbing problems like floods, soil erosion, drought, water scarcity, and water-logging. This apart, the collected water could also be used for various activities like agriculture, animal husbandry, infrastructural development etc.
Since Large-scale Rainwater Harvesting won’t be a reality without the active participation of citizen at large, Government of Assam solicits your valuable and innovative suggestions covering ways to take rainwater harvesting from domestic to public setups.

I propose for introduction of rule by Government to have a mandatory rain water harvesting mechanism for every upcoming housing projects [ Say Housing complex with minimum 15 flats or more] . Govt. can attract consumers with tax exemption facility which ultimately helps Govt. to minimize their expenditure burden during water crisis . It will also help job generation opportunity for the niche market.

Rain Water Harvesting is the urgent need of the time. Govt. should take strict and constructive steps ensuring RWH. In cities as well as in other places, RWH should be adopted to prevent natural calamities. RWH is the natural process to keep Nature pacified. I had installed RWH system in my house 10 years ago and I am much benefited.

Rain Water Harvesting is most essential on earth. We, the people in Assam are lucky enough that still we are getting enough rain and water. That's why we do not bother about water. But, we have seen that in the dry season, particularly in the city like Guwahati, people don't get consumable water, well/ponds get dry due to excessive under-ground water exploitation. If we start RWH, (it should be done by every household) crisis of water will diminish.

महोदय
राजाओं के जमाने जेसे हर गाँव में खेतों में कुएं एवं तालाब
हुआ करता था, ऐसा अभी भी करना चाहिए, आर जो लोग घर निमानॅ
करते हैं या अट्टालिका बनाते हुए बारिशों के पानी जाने के लिए सही नाला, रास्ता
का निर्माण करें, एवं हो सकें तो पानी को फिल्टर करके जमा करें,
आर लोगों को जागरूक करें, बतॅन नल खुलकर नहीं बाल्टी में या बरा बतॅन में पानी भरकर धुलाई करें, आर नहाते समय कपड़े धोते समय पानी नष्ट न करे, साँवर का
इस्तेमाल न करे, वाहन धोते नहाते समय बाल्टी का इस्तेमाल करे

Kotchakorn Voraakhom a Thai girl who designed park which can reserve million litres of water in rainy season and this park can reduce flood effects in Bangkok. This water is used in dry season. So I request you to invite this girl and discuss about the matter and apply it in Guwahati also.

For more information...Go to Bangkok and see the park! Or just google Kotchakorn Voraakhom.
