A common sight in Latur's villages. Umargaon in Latur taluka has 500 families. District administration has acquired 2 private borewells. Drinking water is being supplied at 4 water supply points after every 4 days. If one water supply point gets water today, its next turn will come after 4 days.

Dalit families in Deogarah village in Chakurtaluka of Latur allege they had demanded work under MNREGA from agriculture dept two months ago. Rather than employing villagers, the work of two farm ponds was completed within days by using heavy machinery. These Dalit farmers barely have an acre or 2 acre land. Due to drought, they cannot do farming. And, there is no work available under MNREGA. These families have now decided to hold a pradarshan and rally and force district administration to give it work under MNREGA. Else they all are ready to go to jail.

We had shortage of food grains but had plenty of water. We used to regularly receive ration from the government. But this time, there is neither water nor fodder. To top it all, ration supplies are irregular. On being asked, why he did not sell his cattle due to extreme drought, he said, Why will I sell my cattle? What will I do without cattle? A farmer cannot cultivate without cattle. Where will milk come from? Where will cow dung come from? Janwarhai to shetkarihai [If there is cattle, there is farmer].
