GMDC-Gramya Vikas Trust (GVT) believes in sustainable development and community welfare through its active participation in initiatives that promote water conservation and agricultural productivity. Sujalam Sufalam Jal Sanchay Yojana is a scheme aimed at enhancing water resources in Gujarat, introduced by the irrigation department of the Government of Gujarat.
The Sujalam Sufalam Jal Sanchay Yojana is a vital initiative by the Government of Gujarat focused on deepening check dams and ponds to improve water retention and recharge groundwater levels. This project plays a crucial role in addressing water scarcity, enhancing irrigation facilities, and boosting agricultural output, thereby supporting the livelihoods of farmers.
In alignment with our mission to support sustainable development, GMDC-GVT has contributed 40% of the public share required for the Sujalam Sufalam Jal Sanchay Yojana. This contribution is part of the collective effort by the beneficiaries to enhance the effectiveness and reach of the scheme.
The earthwork undertaken for deepening check dams and ponds under this scheme has several far-reaching benefits:
Groundwater Recharge: By deepening water bodies, the scheme helps recharge the adjoining wells, ensuring a more reliable supply of groundwater for various uses.
Enhanced Irrigation: The increased water retention capacity of these water bodies allows for better irrigation of adjoining agricultural land, enabling farmers to cultivate more crops and improve their yields.
Sustainable Agriculture: With improved water availability, farmers can adopt more sustainable agricultural practices, contributing to long-term agricultural prosperity and food security.
Community Empowerment: The scheme empowers local communities by involving them in the development and maintenance of water resources, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility.
GMDC-GVT is proud to be a part of this transformative journey towards better water conservation and agricultural enhancement.
