In this Monday, May 9, 2016, photo, parched land is seen on the both sides of railway track as Jaldoot water train makes it way to Latur from Miraj railway station, Miraj 340 kilometer (212 miles) from Latur, in the Indian state of Maharastra. Many trains pull into Latur’s railroad station but none is as eagerly awaited as the train that pulls into the parched town in the dead of the night. That train called “Jaldoot” or the Messenger of Water brings millions of liters of the precious liquid that the drought-plagued central Indian district so desperately needs. (AP Photo/Manish Swarup)
