Rajasthan Rain News: Rajasthan is witnessing different experiments for rain these days. On the one hand, in the capital Jaipur, there is an attempt to tear the clouds with scientific technology and rain, while in Gangadhar in Jhalawar district, the villagers resorted to traditional tricks and surprisingly, this unique attempt of the villagers was successful.
Cloud seeding technology failed in Jaipur
The water crisis is deepening due to less rain in the Ramgarh dam area of Jaipur this year. The government and scientists in Jaipur, who are struggling with water scarcity, resorted to cloud seeding technology. Under this, an attempt was made to activate the clouds through large drones and special chemicals. This experiment was repeated several times, but till now its special effect has not been seen.
Totted the donkey and the water fell
In contrast, villagers in Gangadhar town of Jhalawar district tricked the donkey according to traditional beliefs. The villagers fed the donkey Gulab Jamun, decorated it and then made Patel of the village sitting upside down on the same donkey and made seven rounds of the crematorium. There is a local belief that such a trick pleasure and rain. Surprisingly, the area received rains within 24 hours of this ritual. The water of farmers was saved by the farmers who were drying up about 2 inches (51 mm) of water and the villagers breathed a sigh of relief.
Why the donkey trick is discussed in the entire area?
- Villagers say that this is not a new tradition in the Gangadhar region. Such tricks have been done for generations and often people consider it to be the result of faith due to rains. This time also the same thing happened, which made the subject of discussion in the area. Women also joined the worship of the water deity with drums and drums and created an atmosphere of religious rituals in the village.
- This entire development has put an interesting comparison in front. While scientific efforts are being made in Jaipur by spending crores of rupees, the small town of Jhalawar rained with tricks based on publicity.
- Now the question is whether it should be considered a coincidence or the strength of the tradition? Scientific approach or faith, but both events made it clear how serious the water issue in Rajasthan is and every drop of rain is proving to be a lifeline for the people.
