Population growth and higher living standards have increased water demand. Artificial recharge methods like check dams and percolation ponds were studied using groundwater models. The structures were found to increase water levels significantly, with the combined structure being the most effective. The percolation pond was identified as the best option for sustainable water resource development in the area.
