Interviewer instructions

Use of water from springs is very common in hilly regions of the country. There are a number of traditional systems of harvesting water from springs, runoff rain water, mountainous streams and falls, and glaciers in the Himalayan regions and the northeastern hill ranges. The water is either collected directly from these sources or are diverted through bamboo pipes or diversion channels called kuls or kuhals or kuhls or guhls. All such sources, whether used directly or indirectly, will be considered for this item.
