Dear Mr. Rakesh Dippal,

I feel to inform you that you can go for participatory hydrological monitoring
of groundwater in an easy manner. Only thing you require for this to do is
procure water level indicator and insert in the bore wells that are available in
that region. Preferably, you choose any of the hydrological unit like watershed
or river basin which you can attain reasonable details regarding its flow,
levels with reference to space and time. You need to fix the time intervals that
you need to monitor according to your specific study and requirements. Hope this
clarifies your requirements. for further information you can also refer the
document in WWW.apwell.org
or contact me through sridhar_kolluru@...
