Known as ‘Water Man of India’, Rajendra Singh, the winner of Magsaysay Award ad Stockholm Prize attended the 21-day refresher course seminar organized at JRN Rajasthan Vidyapeeth University on the topic ‘Environment & Research Methodology.’

When asked about the present status of Udaipur, Rajendra Singh said that the city has forgone the traditional science and sense of water conservation. He also said that the coming generation may live life lavishly with huge properties and cash, but life wouldn’t survive long without nature, pure water, air and jungles.
