| Boudhwasti | 132 | 18 | 18 |
Where the water comes from

Groundwater, projected from the taluka
IN-GRES assesses revenue talukas. This Panchayat inherits its containing taluka's category unchanged, as containing-area context rather than a measurement of the place.
Khandala taluka, by village subdistrict code.
Groundwater drawn each year as a share of what recharges, for the whole taluka. 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 taluka, not the Gram Panchayat: each Panchayat inherits its taluka'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 taluka the Panchayat's covered villages sit in, joined to the IN-GRES unit by name. No polygon is intersected; a Panchayat whose taluka IN-GRES does not assess is deferred, never guessed. Blocks are the talukas themselves in this district, so no block spans more than one assessment unit.
Water-quality testing
19 samples between 2023-11-09 and 2025-06-13. 19 were taken at a source and 0 at households.
None was recorded unsafe. A clean run this long describes the reporting as much as the water, so read it as an absence of recorded failures rather than as evidence of safety.
| Year | Samples |

| 2023 | 3 |

Land and irrigation
Census 2011, reference year 2009. A historical baseline, not current cropping.
of 226 ha total.
canal 0 ha, wells 0 ha, tanks 0 ha.
culturable waste; barren 0 ha, forest 0 ha.
Sources through the summer
Census 2011, reference year 2009.
3 source types were recorded for the year and 3 held through the summer months. None failed.
This is the 2009 pattern and says nothing about whether today’s piped supply holds through summer.
