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.

Plantation in massive scale should be initiated. Making roads and plantation of trees by the side of the road should be done at a time. Take plan of making ponds in the regular interval of 1 Km. Water storage system of every house hold roof should be make compulsory. These are the minimum steps for harvesting rain water.

we should make some bore holes in the water logged area to transfer the surface water to the under ground through some rapid filter so that the water level of the ground water will be increased

Different techniques of collecting the rainwater must be applied in each and every households. Houses should have slanting roofs so that the rainwater can be collected easily.

This facility can also be availed by commercial establishments and other public private institutions including schools, colleges etc.

State govt. can make provisions for additional grant in annual aids to those educational institutions.

All bus shelters can also have RWH systems to store water for using it in emergency situations such as fire.
