MISSION JALDHARA

मिशन जलधारा – बुझाओ धरती की प्यास

About the Mission

Federation of Indian Industry (FII) is a professional Industry Association. Its objective is to nurture further and give impetus to India’s Economic, business and industrial outreach. Alongside other initiatives of FII like, Skill Development for Women in rural areas, free COVID Vaccination camps, free Rural Healthcare, we are pleased to share that Federation of Indian Industry (FII) has taken another initiative under its umbrella – Mission Jaldhara. This initiative is to save District Gurugram’s dangerously degrading water ecosystem through various rainwater-harvesting steps.

1. Revival of dry & dysfunctional rainwater harvesting wells across the District of Gurugram. Different stakeholders constructed these wells in the pre-covid era to jumpstart rainwater harvesting initiative. The project however was put on halt due to corona crisis due to which most of the wells became dysfunctional. With FII’s intervention, these wells shall be revived to their optimum functional levels, and will be maintained by Mission Jaldhara’s Team of contractors. The location of every well shall be provided through Google maps and can be easily accessed by donors and interested parties. We welcome Corporates to become a part of this movement and adopt wells to support Mission Jaldhara. Alternatively, corporates can support via CSR donations and FII shall maintain the wells on their behalf.

2. Revival of rural water ecosystem bodies in and around District Gurugram. Gurugram is touching close to entering Black Zone in ground water table. We are soon headed for a water crisis if immediate action is not taken. This not only affects the agricultural economy of Haryana but also day-to-day life of city dwellers. FII has planned a strategic revival of rural ponds and other water bodies to be able to provide clean and usable water to villages around Gurugram. This will not only improve the groundwater table levels but will also bring a relief to people residing in these villages.

It is time for us to join hands and come together to revive Jaldhara in Gurugram. Remember, the time is now! “Jal hai to Jeevan hai”

The Concern

There has been an 82% decline in the ground water table in Distt. Gurugram between 2018- 2020 and it has further declined by over 50 percent in 2022. Gurugram ground water level is rapidly going into the dark zone. This level is dangerously low and requires immediate action by both the govt. bodies and society.

The Mission

This mission is designed to help revive the drastically falling water levels in the Distt. Gurugram with the active participation from various organizations like the RWA, the individuals and the corporates by highlighting the need to take action and save the future water table of Gurugram. Mission Jaldhara will award the Title of “Gurugram ka Arjun” in various categories to the stakeholders who make the maximum visible and most impactful contribution to the revival of ground water levels.
