Pyaas Foundation has taken up rejuvenation of a tank in Gajapati village of Belagavi taluk with the bhoomi puja being performed there on Thursday.
Located at a distance of 28 km from Belagavi city, the village has a population of 2,600 and 500 head of cattle.
As silt accumulation has reduced the depth of the existing tank, it is unable to hold more water and consequently, dries up during the summer.
