Solution

The correct option is A Bawris

This is the old method of rain water storage and recharge. In olden days people built deep step wells into the ground. These deep step wells are called the Bawris. During rainy season these wells are filled with water. The water is stored in these wells for a long time because they are very deep and the evaporation of water becomes less.
