Ex-Dacoits' Wives in Rajasthan Fight Drought with Water Conservation

Once, in a part of India called Karauli, many men had to become criminals because it didn't rain enough.

This made life hard for their wives and families.

But the wives decided to make a change.

They convinced their husbands to stop being criminals and started working with a group to save water.

They built ponds to collect rainwater.

Because of their work, there is now more water, the river flows all year, and people have a better life.

It's a story about how people can change things for the better, even when things seem really hard.
