A recent report that satellite data shows groundwater levels in northern India depleting by as much as a foot per year, over the past decade, is a matter of concern. The clear writing on the wall is that India faces a turbulent water future and veritable crisis without proactive policy and sustainable practices. Besides, the poor monsson this season and the resultant drought situation pan-India calls for sustained policy focus on the water economcy. For another, our water infrastructure for storage and supply is sorely inadequate. Worse, policy distortions in artificially underpricing key agriinputs like power have pervesely incentivised cultivation of water-intensive crops like paddy in traditionally wheat growing areas.
56. India has failed to take measures to recharge groundwater adequately in northern part.
57. Wheat cultivation in India requires comp aratively more water than paddy.
58. Water level in other parts of India is stable during the last decade.
59. India has now put in place a system to reduce over dependence on groundwater.
60. Adequate monsoon helps in drawing less ground water for cultivation and thus preserve balance.
