Experiences from
Jal Kranti Abhiyan.
5th March 2016 India Water Week, Pragati Maidan, New Delhi S. K. Sharma Sr Jt. Comm (Policy & Planning), MoWR, RD & GR 1
Brief Introduction
“Jal Kranti Abhiyan” is being celebrated to consolidate water conservation and management in the country through a holistic and integrated approach involving all stakeholders, making it a mass movement. With a rapidly growing population and increasing needs of a fast developing nation, coupled with likely adverse impact of climate change, per capita availability of water would be declining year after year which is likely to lead to water conflicts among different user groups as well basin states. There is an urgent need to promote as well as to consolidate the activities of water conservation, optimization of water use efficiency and water demand management in the country through a holistic and integrated approach. Or in other words:
we need “Jal Kranti Abhiyan” throughout the country
