How does the water kept in an earthen pot (matka) become cool during summer?


Earthen pot is porous with a lot of pores on it. The water oozes out of these pores constantly. This water then gets evaporated through the pores quickly. Since, some heat energy is taken from the water during the process of evaporation. This process makes the pot cold which further cools down the water inside the pot.
