The given statement is false.
A common method of collecting rainwater in Western Rajasthan is called 'Khadin'. This area's principal feature is a long (100–300 m) earthen dam constructed across the lower hill slopes beneath the gravelly uplands. Water can be drained out in excess using sluices and spillways. The khadin method is built on the tenet that cropland can collect rainwater, which can then be used to grow crops on the water-soaked soil.
The correct statement would be that Khadin is a traditional rainwater harvesting technique in Rajasthan.
