About the Book:
This book addresses the severe impact of droughts across vast regions of the country, focusing on the consequences of agricultural, hydrological, and meteorological droughts. The combination of these factors often leads to famine, with critical shortages in food grains, fodder, and drinking water. The socio-economic conditions of the affected communities are severely impacted, especially since agriculture is their primary source of livelihood. Despite efforts to mitigate the effects of drought, such as drought-proofing activities, the lack of effective implementation and people's involvement in decision-making has hindered progress. This book emphasizes the importance of sustainable solutions like rainwater harvesting and plantation activities to reduce the impact of droughts. It advocates for a collective effort in addressing drought-related issues and improving the socio-economic conditions of affected populations.
