The ancient method of rain harvestA reticulated structure made of tin sheets or made of lime mortar
will be constructed just below the water spouts in the ceilings below
the the house terraces. The first rain would be allowed to wash off
the dirt. The second shower will fill these reticulated structures
and the overflow only will be allowed to drain in to the vicinity
of the household wells and the excess will run off in to the street
which too will be directed to flow over soakage pits filled with sand
which will recharge the subsoil water table. The further excess will
be saved in tanks and ponds in villages. We can take up any type of voluntary agency work for execution
in India, that is entrusted to us by various welfare agencies in
the world. We ensure 100% utilization as per the objective of the
