Water walk through step-wells in Mehrauli

	A group of students from classes 6 to 10 from Salwan Public School afternoon shift went on the CSE water walk eco-tour on July 28, 2001, accompanied by their teacher, Premlata. After a slide show on water harvesting and water management in ancient India, water harvesting and revival of johads in Alwar, was discussed. Children were introduced to new words like spillway, catchment etc. and issues and politics of the issues.
This was followed by a visit to the ancient baolis or step-wells in Mehrauli. The maze in the Sukhi baoli was fun for the children and teacher. It is a pity they could not see Hauz-e-shamsi for lack of time.
