Because when the mud get wet it will absorb moisture from atmosphere which makes water inside cooler

In mud pot water get cool because upper surface of water has higher kinetic energy which is continuously come out from the pot hence water get cooled.

We all know that mud pot got pours and from that pours water in the mud pot comes out and then that water tries to evaporate. To evaporate it needs some energy. That energy is taken for water inside the pot and evaporates. As water inside the pot looses energy they get cooled...

the heat transfer is very quick in mud pot when we compared to other material ...that's the reason y water get cooled

It is due heating effect of evaporation.

Lets Assume, The Mud/ Sand Below the Pot is wet. The water particles on the surface of the mud (which is in contact with Air) gets evaporated. to get evaporated that layer of water needs Latent heat that comes from adjacent water particles. and thus there is cooling effect in water.

But this happens in Pot also, as it also has pores. But the surface area what is available on the Mud / sand below the pot is more than that of the Pot. also, some cold water from pot diffuses to the sand and gets further evaporation on the sand.

Hence, the water collected in the Mud/ Sand below the Pot is cooler than that in the pot
