Why do we need deeper tube wells?

           The wells dug by the man are wider and lower in the depth. Such types of wells have a big water storage space at the bottom and the water level goes on rising depending upon the pressure in the veins of the aquifers which is collected at the bottom from all the nine direction. But in a tube well the width is not more than 12-18 inches and there is not enough space to collect the water after released from the ‘few’ veins of the aquifers at the same depth, where the pumping may be the event of few minutes. For continuous pumping water, more depth of tube well is required that may be more than 500 to 1000 feet, to get the water from the 10th direction from the numerous veins in more than one aquifer (upper unconfined and confined layers) in the vertical column on the water pump.

             So, the continuous pumping of water is not possible from the tube wells at the same depth of the open wells in the same area; that is why we require deeper tube wells. Here we have bored the confining impermeable layer which is an unnatural activity; due to which the huge unlimited potable water in the huge underground storage in the unconfined aquifers passing down through the numerous 18 inched holes in the confining impermeable layer, due to which we are facing perilous result of Depletion of Groundwater, falls by 1 meters every year. Today, we are saying “Limited Water Resources” to “Unlimited Water Resources” because the recharge of ground water always going on by the rivers basins and the rainfall every year, which is an unlimited process till the End of the Earth.
