00:00This soap will make your skin soft even when it's wet.
00:04Uncle, won't this soap protect us from germs?
00:08When the climate changes, germs are more likely to grow.
00:11Then why should you get protection?

00:18So that your skin will feel soft even in changing climates.
00:23Karnakar Reddy sir, what are the arrangements for rain water protection in Hyderabad Metro City?
00:33What is happening in the urban planning?
00:35Hyderabad is a world-class city.
00:40It is a city with rapid growth.
00:42Urban planning is very important.
00:46Secondly, as you said, the government is collecting taxes.
00:52They are collecting taxes as per the administration.
00:55They are spending more than 100 crores to pump TMC water.
01:00Every year, Hyderabad Metro Water Supply spends more than 1,000 crores on electricity.
01:08Only for water pumping.
01:10So, only the administration can do this.
01:13Secondly, the government should also be a role model.
01:17The government should prioritise the water supply of the city.
01:30For example, schools, parks and administrative buildings should be water-positive.
01:40Even if you go for a morning walk, the government should have a blue tag.
01:47So that the water supply will be good.
01:50So, people will only look at what is visible and what is not visible.
01:57Secondly, as I said earlier,
02:00we should catch the rain where it falls.
02:05We are working hard to get rainwater from 200 kms away.
02:11In that, we should break out a 5-year plan every year.
02:15In 5 years, if we recharge only 10% of the rainwater,
02:22in the next 5 years, we should have proper urban planning to get it to 50%.
02:29What is the future development of Hyderabad?
02:32Where will we get the permission?
02:33Before getting the permission, we should study the opportunities.
02:39Here, we get this much water with the availability of rainwater.
02:44Here, we should have this much density.
02:46If we don't have this much density,
02:49it will be a problem for the people or for the employees.
02:53Then, as I said earlier, right pricing is very important for water.
02:59Urban Rainwater Harvesting Policy is very important.
03:02We should participate as much as possible.
03:07Secondly, the government spends a lot of money,
03:11but they don't encourage anyone to do it.
03:15Recognization is important.
03:16In this particular building,
03:18or in this particular area, you have done a great job.
03:23You should create an island of excellence.
03:27Then, as much as possible,
03:30government organizations, non-profit organizations,
03:35we have been doing this for the past 12 years.
03:37Every year, we have been doing rainwater harvesting.
03:41We have amazing technology.
03:43The more opportunities we give them, the better it will be.
03:46Then, along with the people,
03:49every government official has a right to water.
03:56For a month or a week, or for 10 minutes,
04:01if you start doing rainwater harvesting on social media from the CM,
04:07the village head or the councillor should work on rainwater and water use.
04:15I will give you a simple example.
04:16This year, I went to the village head and explained this to him.
04:23Madam, we have a great opportunity to do rainwater harvesting.
04:28You are the village head, so you should focus on this.
04:33What he did was,
04:35he told me that he has an opportunity to do rainwater harvesting in his house.
04:41He did this and created an island of excellence.
04:43The building where he lives is now water-positive.
04:50Instead of the rainwater harvested there,
04:53he is sending more rainwater to the ground.
04:55Like this, every minister, every MLA, every MP,
