Movement to raise awareness of the use of rainwater from door to door

Hassan: Dr. Y. S. Veerbhadarappa and R. P. Venkatesh Murthy, Chairman of the District Senior Citizens Forum, stated that a pamphlet will be distributed to each house to raise awareness about rainwater collection and use.

At a press conference on Tuesday, he said a movement will be launched to better meet the demand for drinking water by using rainwater. About this

District commissioners will hold a meeting and raise awareness from house to house. Some citizens of Hassan City collect rainwater and use it for drinking and cooking throughout the year. This is a very welcome development. Most notably, KV Malatesh and Kavitha, residents of Hassan's Channapatna Barangay, have a terrace at their house.

He said, "We are all very happy that rainwater is being collected and used. In general, many people use filter machines from companies like Aqua Guard for clean drinking water in their homes.

Also, irrigation and treatment water from tanks does not contain important minerals and wastes a lot of water in the purification process. Moreover, electricity is needed to run water from tanks and purification machines. However, he believes that collecting and using rainwater is good for health and also avoids dependence on electricity.
