Accordingly, the owner of the land/premises, must inform local authorities at least 15 days prior to constructing any such well, and register the drilling agencies with district administrators.
Special attention was devoted to uncovered wells. "In case of pump repair, the tube well should not be left uncovered," state the guidelines recommending that all mud pits and channels be filled up after work.
The apex court suggested erection of signboard at the time of construction around a well, with details about the drilling agency and as the owner of the well.
In a diktat to states, the court recommended that district collectors be empowered to verify that the guidelines were being followed and ensure regular monitoring. It also stated that a status-check of all borewells and abandoned wells be maintained right down to the level of the block. This is to be done by village sarpanches in rural areas and junior engineer in urban areas.
The apex court's guidelines are a welcome step but their implementation remains a matter of concern.
Maharashtra for instance, has had a legislation to monitor groundwater way back in 1993. But TOI has found that provisions of registration of wells or their closure are rarely monitored. There are for instance, challenges that go beyond technocratic diktats. Monitoring at a village level is often left to the gram panchayat, who are at times the same landowners violating such norms to begin with.
