{"Image ImageDescription": "In this photograph taken on April 27, 2016, Indian farmer Gassiram Meharwal, 32, stands in his field in the village of Bangaye on the outskirts of Tikamgarh district in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.\nTikamgarh is part of central India's parched Bundelkhand region -- consisting of 13 districts, half of which lie in neighbouring Uttar Pradesh state- which is reeling from years of below-par monsoon rains. Officials say the ground water level has receded more than 100 feet in past few years as the area has been receiving less than half of the average annual rains.  / AFP / MONEY SHARMA / TO GO WITH AFP STORY INDIA-WEATHER-DROUGHT,FOCUS BY JALEES ANDRABI         (Photo credit should read MONEY SHARMA/AFP via Getty Images)"}
