The Bhu GARBH Project addresses critical water management challenges in Rajkot City, focusing on mitigating groundwater depletion and urban waterlogging. The project identifies high-potential recharge zones and formulates targeted recharge strategies by leveraging geological, geomorphological, and runoff analyses. It integrates sustainable techniques to enhance aquifer replenishment, prevent waterlogging, and ensure a reliable water supply. This initiative is vital as 50% of Rajkot’s population relies on groundwater, making over-extraction a pressing issue. The project promotes urban resilience by prioritizing sustainable water infrastructure, reducing contamination risks, fostering climate adaptation, and securing Rajkot’s water future.
