Water Management

Why it matters

• Ensures food security by stabilizing irrigation supply for agricultural productivity.
• Mitigates the impact of climate-induced hydrological extremes such as droughts and floods.
• Supports public health by facilitating access to safe drinking water and sanitation infrastructure.
• Promotes industrial growth and energy generation while maintaining ecological flow in river systems.

How it is asked

Focus on the shift from supply-side management to demand-side management, the role of decentralized governance in water conservation, and the integration of traditional knowledge with modern technology for aquifer recharge and watershed development.
