State Bureau, Chandigarh. To improve the underground water in Haryana, the state government will now make the basement of water tanks with cement reinforced cement concrete (RCC). About 250 water tanks have been identified in the state, whose bottoms are made of bricks, but due to water seepage in them, they are getting spoiled.

This bad water is adversely affecting people's health. Haryana Public Health and Engineering Minister Ranbir Gangwa said that after the construction of RCC floor, the problem of underground water leakage will be permanently solved.

During investigation by the technical team of Haryana Public Health Department, it was found that many tanks are very old and their base is made of bricks. Due to this, underground water is getting included in drinking water. Now the Public Health and Engineering Department is working on making the base of these tanks in the state made of RCC, which can be included in the budget.

The problem of sem (waterlogging and saline soil) in the state is mainly in the southern and central districts. Among these, Rohtak, Jhajjar, Sonipat, Bhiwani, Jind, Hisar, Charkhi Dadri and Fatehabad districts are prominent. This problem is also there in some parts of Sirsa. 61.47% land is affected in Rohtak, 40.7% in Jhajjar and 32.95% in Sonipat.

There is a network of canals in Haryana. The problem of beans increased more after the flood of 1995. This problem continued to increase even after the expansion of canals. After the flood, underground water came up in some districts. Haryana Cabinet Minister Ranbir Gangwa said that earlier the bottom of the tanks was made of bricks, now it will be made of RCC, so that there will be no leakage of water from the bottom.
