article writing on water crises in our country
Answers
Water crisis in India is going to take ominous shape. India
is the second most populated country in the world with 1.3 billion people
living in it. Undoubtedly India is a richly endowed country when it comes to
natural resources; however, the management of these resources is very poor. As a
consequence, the ground water levels have receded further downwards; rivers,
lakes, streams have been polluted.
If the present recklessness towards this life resource
continues, there may come a time when people will begin to die of shortage of
water. The only hope to save this life-resource is by conserving it using it
sagaciously. We must ensure there is no pollution of water bodies by dumping
any waste such as, sewage, effluents, and other toxic substances. The people
and the government must ensure installation of effluents treatment plants at
industrial, garbage, and sewage units. We must not delay implementing water
conservation strategies; otherwise it will be too late!
