Being the only water source available in the area, village cattle and dogs also take a dip in it to get respite from heat.
According to villagers, the water table in the area is very low due to which they cannot afford to get deep bore wells dug up on their own.
They say no politician has talked about their problems though Lok Sabha polls will be over on June 1.
Though the panchayat has fixed a fine of ₹10,000 for using the pond after defecation, outsiders often use it for the same as there is no other water body located in the area.
The head says many vilpanchayat lagers make the pond dirty by throwing garbage into it.
