Place and boundary

The mapped extent is DataMeet's community digitisation of the 2001 Census village map (ODbL), joined to the 2011 codes and dissolved to each Panchayat's member villages, so the place on the map is the place the register describes.

Habitations

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

Groundwater, projected from the taluka

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

over-exploited
taluka categorytaluka projection

Rahta taluka, by village subdistrict code.

106.4%
stage of extraction, talukataluka projection

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

Rahta
containing revenue talukataluka projection

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

The assessment unit is a revenue taluka, not the Gram Panchayat: each Panchayat inherits its taluka'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 taluka the Panchayat's covered villages sit in, joined to the IN-GRES unit by name. No polygon is intersected; a Panchayat whose taluka IN-GRES does not assess is deferred, never guessed. Blocks are the talukas themselves in this district, so no block spans more than one assessment unit.

Water-quality testing

73 samples between 2022-10-15 and 2026-07-24. 73 were taken at a source and 0 at households.

1 were recorded unsafe.

Sources through the summer

Census 2011, reference year 2009.

4 source types were recorded for the year and 3 held through the summer months. These failed in summer: riverCanal.

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

What is missing

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

Named gap
No source carries it (12)

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

  • 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 (13)

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

  • surface water change
  • 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
