This recovery marks progress from May 25, when the groundwater was accessed at 10.02 metres (32.87 feet). Now, the average is 8.46 metres (27.75 feet).

The main reasons behind this remarkable improvement are timely monsoon, excess rainfall, and replenishing activities of major and minor reservoirs, and check dams in the State.
