Marriage does not occur due to water

Barmer Akli, the last village of Sardhadi Barmer, still lacks basic facilities. Alam is that due to water, no family wants to marry their daughter here. For years, people here depend on traditional sources for water, in which they have to wait for water by standing for several hours. Whenever people here used to talk about their son’s relationship, there was a clear refusal from there. People used to say, how to give their daughter in the village where there is no drinking water.

Life struggled for water
Let me tell you that Akli village is located just 4 kilometers from Munabav railway station, and its border is adjacent to Pakistan. The lives of the people here have been full of struggle in search of water. Talking to 60 -year -old Jhima Devi Local 18, she says that whenever she went to talk about a relationship for her son, she used to get a clear refusal. People used to say, “How to give your daughter in the village where there is not even drinking water”

Although now changes have come in the village
This scarcity of water not only affected social relationships, but has also given a infamous image to the identity of the village. Due to this, social life has also been affected in these villages. People used to shy away from marrying their daughters in such villages, where water supply was uncertain. However, now these villages have changed due to efforts like Narmada Canal based drinking water project.

People do not want to have daughters relationship
People here are dependent on berries for drinking water, which are traditional water sources. One has to wait for hours to extract water from these berries. Despite this, the quality of water is so bad that it also spreads many diseases. Bharatharam Meghwal of the village says that people in the villages where there is a supply of government water, do not want to have their daughters’ relationship in Akli. For this reason, the people of Akli find a relationship in the villages where the water situation is bad, including villages like Kercori, Sundara or Rohidi.
