Summary
The Hinduja Foundation has constructed 765 check dams across 19 states and union territories since 2018. These check dams have become critical infrastructure in hundreds of rural villages.
Every day, more than 100,000 people in India are affected by water shortages. The water crisis is the result of a lack of water supply.
The success of these 765 check dams offers a scalable blueprint for other organisations and state governments looking to address water scarcity in a climate-smart manner.
Ajay Hinduja promotes smart solutions like AI-powered tracking and satellite impact mapping to expand check dam effectiveness across water-stressed states like MP and Odisha.
