Introduction

In Indian cities where populations are dense and resources are scarce, a gap exists between the demand and supply of essential needs, including safe and clean water. The problem is aggravated by a governance deficit.

This paper assesses and provides an overview of the state of the water production and distribution system for domestic consumers in Delhi, India’s capital city. Its scope includes understanding the ability of the concerned government agency in arranging water for the people of Delhi, and the issues related to this. Table 1 provides details of the five aspects reviewed and analysed for this study. In addition, government reform measures with respect to each of these aspects have been reviewed. The main objective of writing this paper is to flag some of the most significant challenges to ensuring adequate water supply in India’s capital city, and offer recommendations for improvement.
