214 of Rajasthan's 302 groundwater assessment blocks are now classified as “over-exploited,” with several districts crossing 100% extraction. Farmers continue sinking deeper borewells with no real-time visibility into how fast their local aquifer is depleting, leading to crop failure, distress, and unplanned migration in the worst-hit blocks.
Key Features Sought
