Dig, dig deep well, and yet no water in mining belt



What it means to dig a well in mining belt?

Kushali tried to di one in his village of Muscavrem, Sanguem, Goa.




This is a story of Kushali from Goa's Sanguem Taluka. His wells ran dry after mining company put up mining project in his village of Muscauvrem. His village well gradually ran dry. He tried to dig another well with the support of his sons and relatives. But then water was no where to be found. He says this has happened for the first time his life time - water of his well has gone dry. (Pictures by Philip Neri de Souza)
