Deendayal
Dham, Mathura - An initiative to plant Nisi (Tusli) in every house
There is a 300-year old banyan tree
at Deendayal Dham. One very old pond is also there. The rainwater is stored in
this pond. This is the reason that the ground water around this pond is
potable. It is important because all the water sources here are salty and are
not fit for drinking. Thousands of villagers collect drinking water from here
every day. Sometimes this pond is recharged with canal water so that there is
no shortage of drinking water in the area.
There is also a small pond which is
used for animals and washing clothes.
In the east of Deendayal Dham, the Govardhan
nallah flows. It has sufficient water during the rainy season, but this whole
water directly flows into the Yamuna without any use. During the summer, some
water is also released in this nallah from the Agra canal for irrigation.
There
is a water technology centre at outfall of this nallah. Effort is on to build a
check-dam at the outfall with the help of the Indian Institute of Agriculture
Research, Pusa, New Delhi and the District Administration, Mathura.
There is a hostel and workers'
residential complex in the premises of Deendayal Dham. Work is going on to
reuse the waste water produced here for irrigation after treating it. An amla
garden was developed on a two acre plot in Deendayal Dham during the year 1997.
It was a good initiative for environmental protection.
During the year 2007
plants of about 5,000 shade-giving trees were planted which are growing
perfectly. About 8,000 more saplings were planted in the year 2009. Now work is
going on to plant at least one Tusli in every house in and around the villages
of Deendayal Dham.
