Consequently, free flow of water in the river bay has been impeded.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court observed that at various locations within Rajasthan, Dams have been created by the State for providing drinking water to various urban establishments as well as water for Agriculture and Animal Husbandry. <em>Since excavations have been taking place at river beds and big crevices have been formed, due to such excavation, water gets retained in such ditches and crevices and such water does not even travel and reach the Dams<\/em> and the primary purpose of dams are not met.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It was illustrated before the Court that Ramgarh Dam created by the State where Asian Championship was once held, today probably for the reasons as noted here-in above practically no water exists in such Dams and water is being blocked at various locations, therefore, the State should take steps to stop all activities which impede natural flow of water for the larger purpose of providing drinking water to its citizens and animals as well as providing water for irrigation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court thus directed the State <em>\u201cto file an affidavit of what steps the State propose for taking care of the situation as noted here-in-above.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The case is next listed for 06-09-2021.[Kisan Vikas Sewa Samiti v.
