Adampur Irrigation Canal To Regain Life



On its tireless purist to rejuvenate the defunct natural resources, the SSM has crossed yet another mile stone, on 11of May 2016.  A 7 km canal which passes by the villages Kerur, Adampur and Thadi Savli had lost its identity owing to decades of negligence and irresponsible attitude of the irrigation department.  Soil, silt and weeds filled all through the flow way and when it rained, the water would spread across the fields on its either sides, drowning the crops at their peak stage.  Several representations of the suffering farmers  proved futile as the concerned department officials had thrown a deaf ear.
SSM took initiative and mobilized all the concerned public representatives of the constituency, officials and even the state level authorities to respond for the cause. On being convinced with the facts, the Dist collector responded in favor.  As a result, the work commenced on 11th May 2016 in the auspices of Hon’ble MLA, Subhash Sabane, the District Collector, Suresh Kakani and many other public representatives.  The rejuvenation  work includes widening and deepening of the canal  all through the 7 KMs of length and is expected to house about 32 crore litres of water during this monsoon.
