Need database of traditional waterbodies in India

 

I am working on water issues, mostly in the dry parts of the country for several years now. I have come across many traditional water bodies (wells, ponds, bunds etc) which had existed for centuries but due to governments neglect and people's non - cooperation coupled by provision of water through government schemes, have dried up and are no more in use.


I wanted to know if there is a database of such water bodies in the country whic are old/traditional but are now dry, not in use but has the potential to be rejuveneted.

Cordial Regards,

Amit Roy
