The Ridge, Delhi’s oldest natural heritage and forest, is sculpted on quartzite deposits, which have cracks from 2 billion years of natural history. This recharges 60% of the rain falling on it. All rain fed aquifers surrounding the ridge are an incredible resource for pure water and must be preserved by protecting their recharge zones.
