The water management in the country needs a serious scientific understanding coupled with the cooperative approach rather than a competitive one. It looks at current water regulations and underlines the need for overhaul of some laws to ensure that high water usage efficiency is attained, groundwater depletion is arrested and management of available resources is carried out in a disciplined manner. It also looks at the role of stakeholder engagement and pricing as a mechanism to manage demand in the wake of rapid population growth and industrialization.Water Resources Development and Management,1614-810XWater pollutionEnvironmental managementSustainable developmentHydrologyClimate changeWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollutionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35040Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/215000Sustainable Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000Hydrology/Water Resourceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/211000Climate Change Management and Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/314000Environmental Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009Water pollution.Environmental management.Sustainable development.Hydrology.Climate change.Waste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution.Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Management.Sustainable Development.Hydrology/Water Resources.Climate Change Management and Policy.Environmental Management.363.7394363.73946Chadha Girishedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPandya Ashwin Bedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910350335203321Water Governance and Management in India2184193UNINA
