Conclusion
The scheme was launched in two phases consisting of a maximum benefit being offered by the government of Rajasthan in an effort to try and help towards collecting rain water and saving water from going to a waste. As water is a scarce resource and can be easily wasted by humans, whereas it is needed by every species to survive. Rajasthan being a dry state would require the most effort in keeping water resources ready in the case of a water surge.
