  2. Great Drought

    Share Share Post
    There was a great drought period in the year 1878. The drought lasted from April till November.
    All the rivers and lakes of this district dried, and water could not be got anywhere except in spring wells.
    During the drought the farm animals were exhausted from the drought because they could not get any water.
