Gharat, ghat ...,

There is no generator, electricity, tunnel, DPR, blaster nor exploitation of natural resources, but conservation of natural resources as well as the invention of a machine that runs only by water and used to make people self-reliant, people I used to promote mutualism, this machine named of the mountain. Now this is not seen so much! However, when you are going towards the hill village of Uttarakhand state then gharat / watermill on some river and drain; It must have looked barren, but it was a folk science, which people used to make themselves from the natural resources around them and all the work of milling grain was impossible without this gharat. The interplay was so that instead of grinding the grain, a small amount of grain was given to the owner. If water could not run without gharat, people also used to provide water conservation. As a result, the water that was brought to Gharat also flowed continuously in his fire.


 In other parts of the country, the word gharat is unfamiliar to people, but the hill people of Uttarakhand have a deep connection with it. Gherat is not only a means of local employment, but is also deeply associated with mountain folk life and traditions. Gharat is actually the name of an old grain milling mill, which operates only through the flow of water. The faster the water flows, the faster the mill rotates. Water from the river or drains to the mill is brought with the help of Goole. In this way, the work of irrigation and drinking water is also brought from the Goral running gulat. It is also special that gharat is made on the banks of the same river drain where the water remains throughout the year. Gharat is a folk technology that operates by water. Gharat's weft is developed from natural resources.


 However, it takes only a hut to see from outside. Its walls are made of mud and stones and the roof is also made of stones and tin. But the world inside it is very unique. There is a deep pit five feet inside, on top of which a round and round stone wheel is installed. Its bottom is fixed, but the pulley below it rotates with the flow of water. Munger is used on Goole to decrease and increase the velocity of water. Water is poured on the pulleys at the bottom of the gherat. Due to the water falling from the height, the puli begins to rotate and due to the rotating of the puli, the round stone 'vat' (stone wheel) crushing the flour inside the gharat also starts rotating. A box made of bamboo or wood of round and triangular shape is placed above the vat. Which is called Odali in the local language. Grinding grains are added to this box. A small wooden stick is placed under Odali. One who keeps touching the vat again and again. With its help, the grains of grains fall slowly from the odali in the middle of the vat and they are mashed in this way.

 Crisis on Gharat.


 Presently, due to the availability of flour bags in the market and the installation of electric, digitally driven mills in the villages, there has been a crisis on the existence of the ghettos. Not only this, due to the apathy of the governments, such cheap and traditional technology is being eliminated. Whereas, two years after the formation of the state, the Government had constituted the Utra Vikas Samiti for renovation of Gharat. This committee will study the gherats as well as develop the gharat for power generation was the main task of the committee. The committee immediately surveyed the gharats and since then this committee has only been licking paper dust.


 Gherat is also an instrument for power generation:



 According to the Renewable Energy Development Agency, five to fifteen kilowatts of electricity can be generated from one Gharat. Government statistics show that about 22 thousand gharats still exist in the state. If the technology of Ureda is taken care of, then electricity from these water mills can be produced from about 1000 MW to 3000 MW. There are 2075 gharats in the lonely Uttarkashi district. Of these only 35 are being upgraded, of which 25 are electrical. Explain that one and a half lakh for electrical ghett and 50 thousand rupees for mechanical ghrat. A grant of Rs.1000 is given by the government. Manoj Kumar, Project Officer of Ureda in Uttarkashi, says that the government provides 90 percent grant to develop Gherat. If people take advantage of the grant and run a multipurpose Gharat, it can become a good source of earning.


 In the 80s, Lok Jeevan Vikas Bharti Budha Kedarnath, Dasholi Village Swaraj Mandal Chamoli and later Himalayan Environmental Education Institute Uttarkashi, HESCO institution Dehradun have also developed the gharat method for power generation in their area of ​​work, which is very useful today. is. Let us know that Ramdev is also making available grains from these ghatras in the market.
