This 220 metre long and 15 metre high Johad (earthen dam) has been built by the villagers of lava ka bas with technical assistance from the Tarun Bharat Sangh. The Rajasthan irrigation department declared the structure as illegal and went ahead to demolish it. It was after CSE’s intervention at the highest level that the lava ka vas structure was saved.
