The need for water conservation and management –
The moment we speak of water shortage, we immediately associate it with regions having low rainfall or those that are drought prone.
The availability of water resources varies over space and time, mainly due to the variations in seasonal and annual precipitation, but water scarcity is most case is caused by over-exploitation and excessive use and unequal access to water among different social groups.
Water scarcity maybe outcome to large and growing population and consequent greater demands for water and unequal access to it.
A large population means more water, not only for domestic use, but, also to produce more food.
Hence, to facilitate higher food grains production, water resources are being over-exploited to expand irrigated areas and dry-season agriculture.
Post-independent India witnessed intensive industrialization and urbanization, creating vast opportunities for us.
The ever-increasing number of industries has made matters worse by experting pressure on existing fresh water resources.
Industries, apart from being heavy users of water, also you require power to run them.
Today, in India hydroelectricity power contributes approximately 22% of the electricity produced.​
