Dedhaan, a remote village Saurashtra, is one of the driest regions in Gujarat. This year, the scanty rainfall has made the situation worse for the 15000-odd people in the village. Among other things, this has hit the eligibility of the single men in the village. No one wants to marry their girls and send them to the village where waiting for water has become a cruel daily ritual.
