AI SummaryJaldoot mobile app is used by Gram Rojgar Sahayak (GRS) to measure the water level of selected open wells in villages across the country. The app was jointly developed by Ministry of Rural Development and Panchayati Raj and launched by the central government on 27 September 2022. It captures the water level of 2 to 3 open wells in every village twice a year, once before the monsoon and once after it. In this article, we will tell you how to download the Jaldoot app and the Jaldoot resource book PDF through online mode.
The Jaldoot app is still in active use in 2026. The government carried out the pre-monsoon ground water level data collection through the app from 25 May to 15 June 2026, and the post-monsoon round is planned for October. The data collected is used for Gram Panchayat Development Plan and Mahatma Gandhi NREGA planning.
Jaldoot App Download and Resource Book PDF
The Jaldoot app and the Jaldoot resource book can be downloaded from the official Jaldoot web portal. The resource book is a guide for grass root level functionaries and explains how to select monitoring wells, measure water levels and report the data. Here is the complete process.
STEP 1 - Visit the official Jaldoot web portal at https://mnregaweb4.nic.in/jaldootweb/Home.aspx
STEP 2 On the homepage, go to the download section to get the Jaldoot mobile app. The app can also be downloaded from the Mahatma Gandhi NREGA official website at https://nrega.nic.in/
STEP 3 The Jaldoot resource book PDF and the Jaldoot app e-brochure are available on the same portal. The English e-brochure of the Jaldoot mobile app can be downloaded directly from this official link.
The Jaldoot app works in both online and offline mode. So the water level can be captured even without internet connectivity, and the captured data is stored in the mobile. When the mobile comes back into the connectivity area, the data synchronizes with the central server.
About Jaldoot App
With the Jaldoot mobile app, the state governments, union territories and gram panchayats are involved in systematically collecting ground water level data and adding it to the central digital database for analysis. Despite promoting watershed development, afforestation, waterbody development and renovation, and rainwater harvesting, the ground water level in many parts of the country has gone down.
Jaldoot app helps in observing the water tables across the country, and the resulting data can be used for Gram Panchayat Development Plan and Mahatma Gandhi NREGA Plans. The app is used across the country to capture the water level of selected 2 to 3 wells in a village. Manual monitoring of water levels in open wells is done twice in a year, from 1 May to 31 May as pre-monsoon water level and from 1 October to 31 October as post-monsoon level for the same well.
Works of Jaldoots
Jaldoots, that is, the officers assigned to measure the water levels, also upload geo-tagged photographs through the Jaldoot app on every occasion of measurement. The regular data entered by the Jaldoots is integrated with the database of National Water Informatics Centre (NWIC), which is used for analysis and display of various useful reports for the benefit of the people involved. Water level report, Monsoon Report and Registered user report are available at the Jaldoot web portal.
Need of Jaldoot App
Withdrawal of ground water has reached critical levels in many parts of the country, and addressing this issue is a priority. So the measurement and observation of the levels of water tables across the country through the Jaldoot app has become required. If rain water check dams are built, they will be useful in the management and conservation of rain water.
Central government wants the respective state governments to take measures by involving the Gram Panchayats towards systematically collecting the ground water level data. Central and state governments must work together on mission mode to raise the ground water level across the country.
