People in Amravati's Melghat, who have been facing severe water crisis, are forced to go as deep as 40 feet inside wells to fetch drinking water. Neither the government nor anybody else is doing anything to provide fresh water. People sleep at night near wells to fetch drinking water. Health worker in Sonapur village advise people to boil the water before drinking it. While speaking to ANI, one of the villagers said, "I have to go down 40 feet. First I remove the unhygienic water and then wait to fetch the clean water. It takes a lot of time. Sometimes, it takes the entire day. Only a few people manage to get it".
