Dear Gobar Times Readers,
Thirsty? I am not very thirsty
nowadays. You know why? No water coming to my house these days. So I thought it is better
not to be thirsty. A tanker comes with water every day in the evening. But it is becoming
very expensive. My neighbour, he gets water in a bottle. Everytime your water gets over,
the bottled water company sends 20 litres more. Of course, it costs more than what we get
in our taps but what to do when no water?
Hari Prasad told me yesterday that these bottled water is also full of bad poisonous
things. Tests have been done on it that show that it is almost same to same with (or even
more bad then) tap water. And why this water shortage? Day by day this water table is
going down. Isnt drinking the most important use of water? I learnt that more than
70 per cent of fresh water is used for irrigation, and because of being badly used, most
of this water does not reach the roots of plants! Industries not only use so much water
but also throw a lot of their poisonous rubbish into our rivers and they also spoil our
underground water. I am just praying to god.
