Let me also talk about water, which is a very rare commodity where I come from. It is very precious. Any efforts which are made to make drilling of boreholes cheaper in that region are more than welcome. I want to support these amendments because our people will be able to access water. We know what water can do in terms of improving our cleanliness, small-scale irrigation and having kitchen gardens. All these will work towards improving the income of our people. I think this is another important area and we need to support these amendments because they will improve the lives of our people."}
