Bihar’s Laungi Bhuiyan who had grabbed the headlines last year after single-handedly carving a three-kilometer-long canal to direct rain water into the fields, is now on his next mission. The 70-year-old has started digging another canal so that rainwater can be channeled to the fields of five nearby villages.
Laungi has taken this initiative to carve out a canal to make farming possible in the nearby villages of Kothilwa. Bhuiyan also believes that this canal can become a means for eradicating poverty in nearby areas. He also said that the second canal which is being dug up can be used for fishing purposes.
Without anybody’s help, Laungi Bhuiyan managed to build a 3-kilometer long canal last year after 30 years of effort. Bhuiyan lives in Kothilwa village, which is around 80 kilometers away from Gaya district headquarters. As most of the villagers in Kothilwa sustained on farming and animal husbandry, Laungi took this initiative to wipe out scarcity of water for irrigative crops.
Many people have benefitted from the first canal made by Bhuiyan and now they hope that the second canal will give fruitful rewards to nearby villages.
