People Gather Around a Well
People gather to get water from a huge well in the village of Natwarghad in the western Indian state of Gujarat on June 1, 2003. Natwargadh is in the midst of the worst drought in over a decade. Dams, wells and ponds have gone dry across the western and northern parts of Gujarat forcing people to wait for hours around village ponds for the irregular state-run water tankers to show up as the temperature soars to over 44 degree Celsius.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, captured by REUTERS photographer Amit Dave in June 2003, we witness a poignant scene unfolding in the village of Natwarghad, located in the arid western Indian state of Gujarat. As the worst drought in over a decade grips the region, people from all walks of life gather around a colossal well to obtain water - an essential resource for survival. The image portrays resilience and unity as individuals patiently wait their turn under scorching temperatures exceeding 44 degrees Celsius. Dams, wells, and ponds have run dry across Gujarat's western and northern parts due to the relentless drought. Consequently, villagers are left with no choice but to rely on sporadic visits from state-run water tankers that arrive irregularly at village ponds. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of humanity's unwavering spirit amidst adversity. It highlights how communities come together during times of crisis to support one another and overcome challenges collectively. The visual composition captures both determination and hope as these individuals demonstrate their resolve while facing extreme conditions. Through this lens into Natwarghad's struggle for survival during an unforgiving drought, Amit Dave sheds light on the urgent need for sustainable solutions to address water scarcity issues plaguing many regions worldwide. This thought-provoking image resonates deeply within our hearts and compels us to reflect upon our responsibility towards preserving this precious resource for future generations.
