Women-led water revolution turns dacoits into farmers in Rajasthan

Rediff.com25 May 2025

However, the women of Karauli, tired of the despair, took matters into their own hands.

This community-led effort, which included building pokhars (water bodies) and reviving the Serni River, resulted in a remarkable transformation, bringing stability and hope to the region, and turning former dacoits into thriving farmers.
