There is acute shortage of even drinking water in districts of Solapur , Ahmednagar, Satara, Sangli , parts of Pune and Nashik. In Maharashtra currently 1454 towns and 4100 villages are supplied with 1850 tankers of water , as compared to (11 th Feb 2012) 181 towns and 976 villages with 190 tankers.

DROUGHT SITUATION- AN OVERVIEW

Due to acute water shortage maintaining cattle has become a daunting issue for the locals. Animal camps are setup for this purpose. A member of family has to stay at this camp along with his cattle. Gents in the animal camp and ladies engaged to manage for water along with the daily chores , the school going children are left on their own. Managing meal/tif fin for the children has also become an issue. Along with tackling current drought issue , steps also have to be taken to avoid such situations in future.
