Water Management in India and Recycling Techniques

Water is one of the most essential natural resources for sustaining life. Its development and management play a vital role in agriculture production. Integrated water management is vital for poverty reduction, environmental sustenance, and sustainable economic development. Because of the rapid increase in population, urbanization, and industrialization, the demand for water for meeting various requirements is continuously increasing. Therefore, we are facing numerous challenges in the water sector. The last few decades have seen a dramatic rise in the demand for water in India due to a variety of socio - economic processes and demographic trends. Supplies have also grown manifold, to keep pace with the demand through the exploitation of surface and groundwater. The result: groundwater resources are over - exploited in many arid and semiarid regions, leading to falling water levels, deteriorating groundwater quality causing groundwater scarcity.
