Its worthy to note that the Ministry of Jal Shakti has initiated a nation-wide campaign “Jal Shakti Abhiyan : Catch the Rain” (JSA:CTR) focusing on conserving rainwater under the theme “Catch the rain, where it falls, when it falls” from March 29 to November 30, 2022 in the pre-monsoon and monsoon periods of 2022, covering both urban and rural areas of all the districts in the country.
This campaign aims to unify the states, stakeholders and generate awareness on ‘Rain Water Harvesting Structures (RWHS)’ suitable to the climatic conditions and sub-soil strata.
