Gram Panchayat|LGD 218805Water profile
Kamasamudra
Part of Bangarapet block, Kolar district.
Taps are incomplete and the aquifer is already in deficit
66.02 percent of households report a tap connection, and Bangarapet is assessed over exploited at 187.6 percent of extraction. Closing the service gap draws on a source already over-drawn.
1,337 of 2,025 households, across 16 habitations.
Deep Tubewell, Shallow Tubewell
Bangarapet is assessed over exploited. This describes the taluk, not this Panchayat.
29 rain days between 2026-08-20 and 2026-09-19, modelled rather than gauged.
Safe on 2025-08-26. 116 samples over 4 years, 3 recorded unsafe.
Place and boundary
The marker is the centre of the villages the register lists under this Panchayat, drawn by DataMeet. The LGD export lists 286 of the district's 1,825 villages under its 154 Panchayats, one or two each, so the union of a Panchayat's listed villages is not its extent: no outline or area is drawn until the full village-to-Panchayat mapping is on file.

Groundwater, projected from the taluk
IN-GRES assesses revenue taluks. This Panchayat inherits its containing taluk's category unchanged, as containing-area context rather than a measurement of the place.
Bangarapet taluk, by village subdistrict code.
Groundwater drawn each year as a share of what recharges, for the whole taluk. Above 100 is more drawn than recharges.
Sub-district on the revenue hierarchy, which the register itself places this Panchayat's villages in.
The assessment unit is a revenue taluk, not the Gram Panchayat: each Panchayat inherits its taluk's category and stage of extraction unchanged, as containing-area context rather than a measurement of the place. Membership is the Local Government Directory's own statement: the taluk the Panchayat's covered villages sit in, joined to the IN-GRES unit by name. No polygon is intersected; a Panchayat whose taluk IN-GRES does not assess is deferred, never guessed. Blocks are the taluks themselves in this district, so no block spans more than one assessment unit.
Water-quality testing
116 samples between 2022-12-09 and 2025-08-26. 108 were taken at a source and 8 at households.

Land and irrigation
Census 2011, reference year 2009. A historical baseline, not current cropping. Summed over only the villages the register lists under this Panchayat, not all of its villages.
of 629.53 ha total.
canal 0 ha, wells 21.3 ha, tanks 5.1 ha.
culturable waste; barren 17.44 ha, forest 193.68 ha.
Sources through the summer
Census 2011, reference year 2009. Read from only the villages the register lists under this Panchayat.
3 source types were recorded for the year and 2 held through the summer months. These failed in summer: tapUntreated.
This is the 2009 pattern and says nothing about whether today’s piped supply holds through summer.
