The Water Man of Rajasthan
30 years ago, Rajendra Singh gave up his government job in Jaipur, and moved to a village without water -- the rivers had dried up, and most people had moved away. So he made it his mission to get the water back - and he's done it, not by some fancy modern method, but by reviving a tradition that had fallen out of use. He's just been awarded the respected Stockholm Water Prize. Rajendra told Jo Fidgen through a translator how he ended up leaving the city for village life. Photo credit: Tarun Bharat Sangh.
