Meanings of borewell in English

Four complaints against individual owners of small borewell digging companies are being investigated for late payment to workers and labour exploitation, according to T.G.

They are allowed to cultivate the land but have to adhere to certain restrictions on digging borewells and cutting down trees.

Like many Indian cities, Chennai and its suburbs plug that gap by buying water, encouraging residents to dig backyard borewells, or using private wells.
