The demand for water is ever increasing.

The government can do more by simply allowing it. Currently in most states there are significant restrictions on rainwater and greywater harvesting which are mostly due to outdated laws based around agriculture. (many times in areas where there isn’t any agriculture anymore!) If you would like to get involved in a discussion about rainwater harvesting practices please join our rainwater harvesting

The government needs to do more to encourage rainwater harvesting.

Amit, you are perfectly right about our effort. In Delhi, some resident welfare associations have started rainwater harvesting without bothering the government. Expecting something from the politicians shows a kind of naivety.

Alka,this was something I think about,each time Mumbai or any of our States have floods-namely,why can’t they channelize this water, instead of letting it all flow off,and,then,after a few months,start crying for draught relief?But,I think it’s in the interests of our politicians to let things remain in the state they are,so that a topic for the vote banks doesn’t'dry up’,if I may make that pun.

And,I did do a bit of reading on rainwater harvesting,and,as this article also says,it’s pretty simple.Perhaps we,as citizens,need to bring this topic to the authorities’ notice,or,maybe,do something ourselves…*ponders*
