The document presents an assessment of the Jalyukta Shivar Abhiyan (JYS), a water conservation program launched by the Maharashtra government. It summarizes the objectives and activities of JYS, which include constructing various structures like contour trenches, stream widening, bunding, and farm ponds. The study assesses various JYS structures constructed in Jambhala village in terms of location, structural soundness, and benefits. It finds that while JYS helped store water, lack of rainfall meant structures could not store enough water, impacting farmers' livelihoods. The document recommends ensuring proper structure, management, and skilled labor for JYS to achieve its goal of a drought-free Marathw

3.  Maharashtra government has launched a new program named ‘Jalyukta
Shivar Abhiyan’ on 26th January, 2016 to make Maharashtra a drought-
free state by 2019.
 The program aims to make 5000 villages free of water scarcity every
year. Under the program, micro-irrigation systems would be encouraged
for proficient use of water, hence increasing the irrigated area.
 Government will be initially allocating Rs 1,000 core for the
scheme. Moreover, all the existing water conservation schemes will be
now accumulated under this scheme.
 Maharashtra is a drought prone area, especially its region
of Vidharbha and Marathwada. In 2014, Vidharbha was deficit by 14
per cent, while Marathwada was deficit by 42 per cent, putting both the
regions in the category of drought.

4.  Visit to actual JYS work of structure widening and deepening of
Nala, observe the structure collect the data from actual structure
constructed as per the JYS scheme.
 Different structure JYS assessment of:
1. Deep Continuous contour trenches (CCT)
2. Stream deepening and widening
3. Compartment Bunding / Graded Bunding.
4. Earthen Nala Bhandhara
5. Farm Pond
6. Gaybian Bandhara
7. Well / Borewell Reuse etc.

5.  In Maharashtra state water scarcity was declared in 23811 villages in
the year 2014- 15 and 15747 water scarcity Villages in 2015-16.
 There is a need to recharge ground water and create decentralized
water bodies to overcome the Water Scarcity problem in rain-fed area
of the State.
 Incidents of farmers suicide have become very common in
these regions.
 The main reason to suicide is water scarcity and loan, if this
programmed goes smoothly and result oriented, farmers from much hit
area would be benefitted, and it shall increase the water level of

6. Objectives of JYS Assessment:
• To check whether there is a increasing the level of ground water
or not.
• To observe the volume of increased water storage capacity
• To check whether there is increasing assured water for farming
and efficiency of water usage or not.
• To check the JYS structure which is correct or not as per the
assessment methodology.

7.  Broadening and deepening nalla.
 Removing silt from lakes, ponds, farm ponds, and canals which
prevents water percolation.
 Building check dams, canals, small ponds, and wells (individual
and community).
 Tree plantation.
 Construction of CNB, ENB.
 Compartment Bunding.
 Construction CCT.

Assessment derived from the
JYS GR dated-5/12/2014

10.  The collect data in the area of Aurangabad district , major part of
Gangapur region.
 Visit to actual JYS work of structure and collect the data from actual
structure constructed as per the JYS scheme in Gangapur region.
 Selected jambhala village ,Tq:- Gangapur ,Auranagabd .

11.  As per the assessment methodology three key pillars of assessment
derived from the JYS GR dated-5/12/2014 are-
 Location- ( Whether the Location of intervention is appropriate? Etc.)
 Structural Soundness- (Whether the interventions are structurally
sound and as per relevant guidelines? Etc.)
 Utility- (Whether the intended benefits have been fulfilled? Etc.)
 Important Government Officials (Agri Assistant, Gram sevak) are contact
and JYS plan was obtain.
 A series of primary visits to the village and three of them have been
execute.

20.  This project helped in soil conservation. But due to absence of
rainfall at Jambhala village; water couldn’t be stored in the JYS
construction so it resulted into decreased water level.
 This affected not only farmers’ economy but common people also
suffered due to market strategy of “high demand and low
availability principle”.
 The constructions which come under JYS helped to store 555.72
TMC. This stored water further used for farm irrigation purpose
and found to be useful in the increased well water level.
 This study showed that JYS project helps to solve scarcity
problem and can create drought free region. But this Jys scheme
suffered due to its improper structure and lack of attention by the
conducting body.
 If this situation will persist then the mission of making drought free
marthawada up to 2019 won’t be accomplished. So need the
proper attention with the proper work management and skilled
workers so as to fulfill the mission of “Drought free Marathawada
2019.
