Our earth is a blue planet and 4/5 part of earth surface is covered by water, around 97 % World water quantity is locked in sea/oceans, only 0.3% is available for human consumption. But today this is getting polluted due to human activities like mining, industrialization and population growth has created shortage of drinking water. Rain water harvesting is one of the most ancient and easiest options that can be adopted at urban and rural level efficiently. The aim of this study is to investigate the possibility of using harvested rainwater as a source of drinking water without causing any health and environmental risks. This can be achieved by suitable storage technique, efficient and economical treatment methods. This research paper describes a collaborative and development of affordable technologies for capturing & retaining runoff, roof tops and groundwater using this as a valuable source of water and this can be helpful as a valuable water source in future.
