As India is an agrarian country, farmers depend mainly on groundwater for irrigation. With increasing population, lesser land holdings and urbanisation, deeper borewells are dug for groundwater abstraction. However, farmers are not able to utilize borewell benefits as the cost of installation is high. Accordingly, the state govt. of Andhra Pradesh has now decided to provide free of cost bore-wells to farmers under AP YSR Jala Kala Scheme. The farmer or a group of farmers with a land holding of 2.5 to 5 acres can apply for the YSR Jala Kala by applying either online or through the village secretariats.

Revised Guidelines for YSR Jalakala Scheme
Only one farmer family will be eligible to apply for a free bore well scheme under the YSR Jala Kala scheme. Some applications were received for 3 or 4 adjacent borewell in the same area in the name of different members of the same family. However, the Walta Act stipulates that there must be a distance of at least 200 meters between one bore and the another. To solve this problem, the officials of the Rural Development Department sent a report to the government suggesting amendments to the eligibility rules of the scheme.
Accordingly, the government has made changes and additions in the eligibility rules. The Andhra Pradesh govt. has issued orders to this effect. As per the amended provision, if a member of a family is granted a free bore in the scheme, another member of the family will be disqualified from applying for the scheme.
