First let the rivers be Nationalised!!!
by jayson moses on Jun 06, 2007 01:33 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

First of all the rivers flowing through more than one state should be nationalised. And the rivers should be monitored by a non political team. They should also make sure water is proportionally share within states. More over the independent commitee should also plan for more water storages, preseving and maintaining lakes and other water facilities.

constructing lakes, tanks and bunds, water harvesting compulsorily is the answer. the water table in chennai has increased by 5 feet after water harvesting. why cant this be imposed in bangalore where they have reeling water shortages.

Nobody will do anything. Politicians and businessmen will corner most or all of the water resources and sell it for a price. This and other governments will first allow privatization of all water, the levy a service tax on consumption.
