Parched: Farmers in Nagpur face severe water crisis
Oct 8, 2018 2:53 PM

Despite a good monsoon, farmers in certain parts of Nagpur district are facing a severe water crisis. The region is heavily dependent on dams built on river Pench for its irrigation needs.

However, after the construction of a dam on Madhya Pradesh's side of Pench, water availability has gone down drastically in this area. CNBC-TV18’s Archana Shukla travelled to these places of Nagpur to find out how this scarcity has affected the farmers of the region.
