  • ALLAHABAD, INDIA – MAY 21: A woman carries empty containers to collect water from a private bore well on May 21, 2022 in Badokhar village about 70km (43 miles) from Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, India. A severe heatwave has caused drought-like conditions in vast swathes of India’s agricultural heartlands from north to south, as the rains that usually arrive before the country’s prolonged monsoon season have so far failed to materialize in many regions. India is particularly vulnerable to drought as its under-developed agriculture sector is heavily dependent on timely, uninterrupted natural weather cycles for its survival. About 150 villages in the Mirzapur region are facing extreme water crisis. Most of the water is supplied by tankers and there is a daily quota of 15 litres per person. Due to this, many residents end up drinking water from unhygienic sources, causing Diarrhea and other related diseases. (Photo by Ritesh Shukla/Getty Images)Leadership
