The project focuses on water conservation by building and restoring check dams. The programme was developed to create reservoirs of water that also helps to improve the water table in the nearby areas.It has constructed and restored over 200 check dams across Gujarat and Maharashtra since 2001. The project has helped irrigate about 9638 acres of land, turning barren land into fertile farms and benefitted close to 12,000 families of farmers in over 125 villages.Commenting on receiving the award, Angelo George, Chief Executive Officer, Bisleri International Pvt.
