Water scarcity haunts locals of Purulia village

Water scarcity is one of the greatest threats to humanity.

Tribal belts of Purulia in West Bengal are facing extreme unavailability of water.

Water scarcity is one of the regular problems in Chayanpur, Lalbazar, Mohoda, Jolduar Golamara, and Bagra, claimed a resident.

Not only water but lack of medical facilities and deprived basic amenities also haunt the locals.

Most of the tube wells and taps are not working for months.

The village had seven tube wells out of which only 4 are in working conditions.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a public rally in West Bengal raised the issue of water scarcity in Purulia.

Several complaints made at the local levels but have not resulted in any positive outcome.

Rise of Hezbollah Again? Joseph Aoun Elected Lebanon’s President| What Does it Mean for Israel?

Lebanon’s political stalemate has ended with the election of Army Chief Joseph Aoun as president, after 13 failed attempts and over a year without a leader. Aoun’s election comes during a delicate ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel, following devastating clashes that left Lebanon reeling. Backed by international powers like the US and Saudi Arabia, Aoun’s presidency is seen as a potential turning point for the country’s fractured politics and strained international relations.Hezbollah’s role in the election has raised questions about its future influence, especially as the group has been weakened by the recent conflict with Israel. Aoun, viewed as a reformist leader, faces monumental challenges, including rebuilding Lebanon’s shattered economy, navigating the fragile peace with Israel, and maintaining national unity amid deep political divisions. #JosephAoun #LebanonPolitics #Hezbollah #IsraelConflict #MiddleEastTensions #LebanonPresident #JosephAounElected #HezbollahRise #IsraelLebanon #CeasefireTalks #MiddleEastNews #JosephAounLeadership #LebanonFuture #RegionalStability #LebanonReforms Also Read West Bengal's Anti-Rape Bill Aparajita Sent to President for Consideration :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/west-bengal-governor-refers-anti-rape-bill-to-president-011-3927913.html?ref=DMDesc Meet To Lam: From Police Chief To President Of Vietnam :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/meet-to-lam-from-police-chief-to-president-of-vietnam-3831659.html?ref=DMDesc Putin's Landslide Victory: Securing Fifth Term And Surpassing Stalin As Longest-Serving Leader :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-putin-secures-fifth-term-with-landslide-victory-in-russian-presidential-election-3777051.html?ref=DMDesc
