Groundwater levels in parts of Kalaburagi district have registered a significant rise with the minimum depth being 2.85 m below ground level (mbgl) and the maximum being 9 m below ground level.
Rainfall recorded in excess in the last two years across the district has helped recharge the water tables and improve the groundwater situation.
As per the data provided by geologist Mujeeb-ur-Rehman, the average groundwater level has been recorded at 6.15 mbgl against 10.72 mbgl reported during the same period last year.
