Puducherry's Water Bodies - A gift from the past
Puducherry has a fantastic system of irrigation tanks - a total of 84 of them - which date back to about 1000 years or more. These are a gift to us from the past which were managed by the communities through a system called "Kudimaramathu" and takes care of extreme rain-events a peculiarity of the east-coast.
But it is quite saddening to note that these systems are completely neglected, their management taken away from the communities, their original hydraulics being tampered with and being increasingly neglected for their climate-change adaptability.
What we got from our ancestors, we need to carefully nurture them and pass it on to the next generations for their water-security. Are we shying away from that? Don't we ever learn from the past mistakes? Is there some common-sense left with our administrators?
