Chilume- A Unique Way to Solve Water Crisis
Chikkaballapur is the district headquarters of the newly created Chikkaballapur district in the state of Karnataka, India. Located within 3 km of Muddenahalli (the birthplace of eminent engineer and statesman Sir Mokshagundam Visvesvarayya), this town is known for its production of grape, grain and silk. The state government is keen on the development of the city by releasing funds to expand and develop it. With recent developments, Chikkaballapur is expected to be part of “Greater Bangalore.

Since summer is a couple of months away from now, Mrs Latha’s efforts on Rain Water Harvesting is a commendable task to upgrade the already running programmes to develop the district.
It was indeed an insightful interaction for Manjunath Gangadhar of Smart Sustain when Mrs Latha unfurled the details of Chilume.
