And this place gave birth to great nationalists and pioneers of freedom like Raja ghazanfar ali khan(close freind of jinnah).And that old remains you see above are the remains of the laboratory established by al beruni in the 7th century.A lot of hindu history is also buried over there .Well know former indian statesmen are also from this region.
Alexander the great also passed from this region and found a salt mine when their horses started to lick the salt rocks.

Nazare hi nazare. You live near tilla jogian heard there is a massive radar on top of it. Always wanted to see tilla jogian up close but guess time passes by fine with our pabbi mountains.

Then 10/10 for your village. Just plant more trees, focus on water conservation and organic farming. My two cents.

The land is so good for agriculture but the land near the salt mine is not good at all for cultivation because the land became salty because of the presence of salt mine nearby.We lost nearly 45 acres of agricultural land near the salt mine.
Overall the land produces some fine quality wheat and all kinds of vegetables and some fruit trees.It,s hell hot in summers over there.

Find out some way to rejuvenate it. One way is to block rain water and when salt desove in it, release water. That will reduce salinity.

I don,t think that will work .The problem of salinity is everywhere not just near the salt mines and your method may work at other places but here we are dealing with a worlds second biggest salt mine.The salt is simply too much in that area and it turned the color of the land white.
