India is one of the most water-stressed countries in the world, with a per capita annual water availability of just 1,287 cubic meters. The country's rivers and groundwater are polluted with sewage and industrial effluents. There are many causes of this crisis: pollution from agricultural runoff as well as urban sewage; shrinking glaciers due to climate. With climate change and population growth, water crises are only going to worsen.
The Indian government has taken some steps to address this issue. It has begun building new reservoirs and started a campaign to clean up rivers, lakes, and groundwater sources. But with more than 1 billion people in India, it is going to take a lot of time and effort before India can solve its water crisis. As the country’s population continues to grow, there will be more pressure on the government to find solutions to this problem.
Water is a finite resource. As the population grows, water scarcity is becoming an even more pressing issue. India has been experiencing water crises for decades now and it is not just an Indian problem. It’s a global issue because many other countries are also facing the same problem. The situation in India is dire with over half of the country's population living without access to clean drinking water and proper sanitation facilities. The lack of access to clean water has led to increased health problems like diarrhea, typhoid fever, dysentery, and cholera.
The crisis in India can be attributed to a number of factors such as climate change, natural disasters, and poor infrastructure among other things. The government has taken measures to ensure that everyone has access to clean drinking water.
