Question

How has the ever increasing number of industry in India made worse position by exerting pressure on existing fresh water resource?explain

Answer 1

(i) Industries especially heavy industries use huge amount of fresh water for industrial purpose and pollute and waste such water.
(ii) These industries for their energy consumption purpose depend on hydroelectric projects and this electricity is generated through damming the rivers upstream. So, the river almost dries in the lower stream areas.
(iii) Again industries dump the chemical waste in the river, lake, etc. which then consequently pollute the water dangerously for human survival.
These also contaminate the groundwater through seepage of industrial wastes. So, the increasing number of industries exert pressure on existing fresh water resources.

The more the technology develops nowadays the more number of industries have developed.
