Abstract
JYS is the Government of Maharashtra’s program to provide water for all and make villages scarcity-free. Maharashtra has been witnessing increasing agricultural and drinking water stress in recent years. Maharashtra government has launched a new program named ‘Jalyukta Shivar Abhiyan (Campaign)’ in a bid to make Maharashtra a drought-free state by 2019. The JYS proposes a framework for village level water balance calculation which includes estimation of crop-water requirements, drinking water stress etc. JYS promotes an integration and coordination between various government agencies and program during planning and implementation levels and stresses on people's participation as one of the key objectives. The program aims to make 5000 villages free of water scarcity every year. The scheme aimed at solving water woes of draught-prone regions is already a hit with farmers as many villages are inching towards becoming water-sufficient. This transformation has been possible with concentrated efforts towards developing water sheds, improving ground water levels, de-silting and decentralizing water sources and increasing the area under irrigation. The project involves deepening and widening of streams, construction of cement and earthen stop dams, work on lakes and digging of farm ponds .After completion of irrigation projects in next two years, 50% area will be under irrigation. For the rest 50%, rainwater harvesting and decentralizing water sources are the only options to solve the issue of water scarcity. The JYS is a successor of many earlier watershed programs which have already been implemented, and some of which are ongoing, such as the IWMP. With unique initiative like Jalyukta Shivar, water scarcity will surely be a thing of the past!
