Gram Panchayat|LGD 218823Water profile

Yelesandra

Part of Bangarapet block, Kolar district.

Blocked

Taps are incomplete and the aquifer is already in deficit

76.16 percent of households report a tap connection, and Bangarapet is assessed over exploited at 187.6 percent of extraction. Closing the service gap draws on a source already over-drawn.

Place and boundary

The marker is the centre of the villages the register lists under this Panchayat, drawn by DataMeet. The LGD export lists 286 of the district's 1,825 villages under its 154 Panchayats, one or two each, so the union of a Panchayat's listed villages is not its extent: no outline or area is drawn until the full village-to-Panchayat mapping is on file.

Habitations

JJM records service for each habitation separately. A Panchayat total can hide a habitation that is behind.

Groundwater, projected from the taluk

IN-GRES assesses revenue taluks. This Panchayat inherits its containing taluk's category unchanged, as containing-area context rather than a measurement of the place.

over-exploited
taluk categorytaluk projection

Bangarapet taluk, by village subdistrict code.

stage of extraction, taluktaluk projection

Groundwater drawn each year as a share of what recharges, for the whole taluk. Above 100 is more drawn than recharges.

Bangarapet
containing revenue taluktaluk projection

Sub-district on the revenue hierarchy, which the register itself places this Panchayat's villages in.

The assessment unit is a revenue taluk, not the Gram Panchayat: each Panchayat inherits its taluk's category and stage of extraction unchanged, as containing-area context rather than a measurement of the place. Membership is the Local Government Directory's own statement: the taluk the Panchayat's covered villages sit in, joined to the IN-GRES unit by name. No polygon is intersected; a Panchayat whose taluk IN-GRES does not assess is deferred, never guessed. Blocks are the taluks themselves in this district, so no block spans more than one assessment unit.

Water-quality testing

304 samples between 2022-11-05 and 2026-07-23. 169 were taken at a source and 135 at households.

26 were recorded unsafe.

Sources through the summer

Census 2011, reference year 2009. Read from only the villages the register lists under this Panchayat.

6 source types were recorded for the year and 3 held through the summer months. These failed in summer: tapTreated, uncoveredWell, handPump.

This is the 2009 pattern and says nothing about whether today’s piped supply holds through summer.

What is missing

13 of 40 capabilities are supported by acquired evidence. The rest are named here rather than left blank.

Named gap
No source carries it (13)

Nothing acquired for this district answers these, so they are named rather than estimated.

  • place boundary
  • drinking water reliability
  • groundwater level observation
  • groundwater level trend
  • aquifer context
  • catchment context
  • water body inventory
  • water body condition
  • waterway network
  • flood hazard
  • observed flood events
  • natural drainage
  • wastewater service
Named gap
Not determined whether it applies here (14)

These may not be meaningful for an inland rural Panchayat. Until that is decided, they are neither claimed nor dismissed.

  • surface water change
  • river water quality
  • engineered stormwater drainage
  • wastewater treatment assets
  • pollution pressure inventory
  • measured water pollution
  • coastal and estuarine
  • current crop and irrigation state
  • soil water context
  • agricultural water system relation
  • crop water demand
  • agricultural water stress observation
  • agricultural water pollution pressure
  • composite priority score
