Rainwater Harvesting Pit Eases Waterlogging at Pragathi Nagar
Pragathi Nagar Kaman often became flooded after rain.
This water made it harder for vehicles to move through the area.
A new rainwater harvesting pit was built nearby.
The pit collects the water that gathers on the road.
Injection borewells then send the water underground.
This helps reduce standing water.
It also helps recharge groundwater.
As a result, traffic movement has become smoother.
A recharge borewell-cum-rainwater harvesting pit has been built at KGR function hall near Pragathi Nagar Kaman.
The facility is located in Nizampet Circle’s Quthbullapur Zone within Cyberabad Municipal Corporation limits.
It diverts accumulated rainwater from Pragathi Nagar Kaman into the harvesting pit.
Injection borewells recharge the collected water into the ground.
The project has improved conditions at the location and supported smoother traffic movement.
