Saving rivers



















A friend cycled all the way to Sivagange to attend this event where Ramon Magsaysay award winner Rajendra Singh, popularly known as ‘Water Man of India’ (credited for having rejuvenated seven rivers in Rajasthan) delivered a lecture about the need to rejuvenate the Kumudavati river. I like it that they are reaching out to children too, building awarenes at that level.

Save Arkavathi, Kumudvathi basins, says Rajendra Singh
