On 7th Oct. 1998, after the padhs Veer Ji (Kamla Devi) agreed to mark the location where the bore for water should be made. The location selected is about 1.5 Kilometre from the mander building, on the other side of village next to the over flow canal. Veer Ji marked the spot, where the water bore should be made.

By 12th of Oct. 1998 the water bore has been completed and the digging was almost complete for 8-inch pipes to be laid. This was all completed in 1998 and water was available at the mander.

During July 2000 the room to house the water bore and engine was completed.

This pumphouse is fully functional and supplying all the water required at the mander. It is invaluable for the entire village including the nearest villages during the shortage of water. There is NO restrictions on who and how much water is taken away. It is free for ALL.
