In arid and dry landscape of Rajasthan this village stands out like a green oasis. Lapodiya, with little over 300 households is a drought- proof village two hours away from Jaipur. What makes it so special is the fact that it has been able to revive the traditional water harvesting structures to harvest water. Laxman Singh is the man behind this mission. Is it possible to revive a village economy using rainwater harvesting? Yes! Lapodiya shows the way.
This green oasis is a drought-proof village in Rajasthan
