THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Amid Kerala’s escalating climate challenges and dwindling groundwater reserves, micro-level initiative ‘Jalasamrudhi’ has emerged as a beacon of success in the Kattakada assembly constituency. Implemented over the past seven years, this community-based conservation programme has not only halted the acute water scarcity the people of the locality have been facing for the past two decades but also significantly replenished groundwater levels. The project officially commenced in 2017 and has since become a cornerstone of sustainable development in the region. According to a comprehensive study by Gautam Ganapathy and Salil C S titled ‘Bureaucracy, Sustainable Development and Decentralisation: Reflections on Jalasamrudhi, a Community-based Water Conservation Programme in Kerala’, groundwater availability in Kattakada has surged from 1,355 million cubic metres (mcm) to 4,908.68 mcm between 2017 and 2019. “As many as 314 ponds and more than 43,000 wells in the area were cleaned as part of the initiative.

ट्रैवल इन्फ्लुएंसर आनवी कामदार की 300 फीट गहरी खाई में गिरने से मौत
मुंबई की ट्रैवल इन्फ्लुएंसर आनवी कामदार, 27, महाराष्ट्र के रायगढ़ जिले में प्रसिद्ध कुंभे जलप्रपात पर इंस्टाग्राम रील फिल्माने के दौरान एक खाई में गिरने से दुखद रूप से मर गईं। इंस्टाग्राम पर @theglocaljournal के नाम से मशहूर कामदार एक चार्टर्ड अकाउंटेंट थीं, जो अपनी यात्राओं का दस्तावेजीकरण बड़ी संख्या में लोगों के साथ करती थीं।कामदार 16 जुलाई को सात दोस्तों के समूह के साथ झरने की सैर पर निकली थीं। मानगांव पुलिस स्टेशन के एक अधिकारी के अनुसार, यात्रा के दौरान, वीडियो शूट करते समय वह फिसलकर 300 फीट गहरी खाई में गिर गईं।इस घटना के बाद उनके दोस्तों ने स्थानीय अधिकारियों को सूचित किया, जिन्होंने तुरंत बचाव अभियान शुरू कर दिया। बचाव दल के अलावा, तटरक्षक बल, कोलाड बचाव दल और महाराष्ट्र राज्य विद्युत बोर्ड के कर्मचारियों ने भी सहायता प्रदान की।जैसे ही मौके पर पहुंचे तो हमने पाया कि लड़की करीब 300-350 फीट नीचे गिर गई थी। और उसके पास पहुंचने के बाद भी उसे उठाना मुश्किल था। साथ ही वह घायल थी व भारी बारिश हो रही थी। और इसलिए हमने उसे एक चरखी का उपयोग करके बाहर निकालने का फैसला किया। और एक बचावकर्मी ने NDTV को बताया।ऑपरेशन में शामिल एक अन्य व्यक्ति के अनुसार, जो लोकमत से बात करता है, घाटी से बड़े-बड़े पत्थर गिरने से बचाव और भी जटिल हो गया था। इन चुनौतियों के बावजूद, छह घंटे की मशक्कत के बाद कामदार को दरार से बाहर निकाला गया। दुर्भाग्य से, बचाए जाने के कुछ ही समय बाद मानगांव तालुका सरकारी अस्पताल में उसकी मौत हो गई।अधिकारियों ने तब से पर्यटकों से अपील जारी की है कि वे झरनों पर जाते समय, खासकर मानसून के मौसम में, अत्यधिक सावधानी बरतें। यह दुखद घटना सही शॉट की तलाश के संभावित खतरों को रेखांकित करती है और सोशल मीडिया सामग्री पर सुरक्षा को प्राथमिकता देने के महत्व को उजागर करती है।
