Borewell
A borewell is a deep, narrow hole drilled into the ground to access underground water. It is commonly used in agricultural and residential areas where surface water is scarce. Borewells are typically constructed using drilling machines and can reach significant depths, depending on the water table.
The water extracted from borewells is often used for irrigation, drinking, and other domestic purposes. However, proper management is essential to prevent over-extraction, which can lead to issues like groundwater depletion and land subsidence. Regular maintenance and monitoring are crucial to ensure the sustainability of borewell water sources.
