Managing Climate-Induced Water Stress Across the Agro-Ecological Regions of India: Options and Strategies
This chapter defines the key strategies for India to overcome the stress induced by climate variability and changes that affect water resources and water-related services. In the case of services, the focus is on irrigation and drinking water security. The analysis of water availability-demand situations and specific proposal for interventions that are aimed at reducing climate risk are made for distinct rainfall-climate zones. The spatial variation in geohydrology and topography is also factored in while doing the analysis. The chapter will also discuss the key institutional and policy reforms that are required to manage water resources and water-related services on a sustainable basis under climate extremes. The focus is on improving irrigation and drinking water security.
