Water conservation and harvesting projects are run in the State of West Bengal on a large scale.
About 500 ponds have been developed for water conservation in 4 districts.
 
This has resulted in a considerable increase in the groundwater level, tremendous enhancements in the agricultural field and the decrease in the rate of labour migration.
