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. 410 0$aWater Resources Development and Management,$x1614-810X 606 $aWater pollution 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aHydrology 606 $aClimate change 606 $aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35040 606 $aWater Policy/Water Governance/Water Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/215000 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aHydrology/Water Resources$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/211000 606 $aClimate Change Management and Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/314000 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 615 0$aWater pollution. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 14$aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution. 615 24$aWater Policy/Water Governance/Water Management. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aHydrology/Water Resources. 615 24$aClimate Change Management and Policy. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 676 $a363.7394 676 $a363.73946 702 $aChadha$b Girish$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPandya$b Ashwin B$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910350335203321 996 $aWater Governance and Management in India$92184193 997 $aUNINA
