Environmental quality and water resources management in India
Water resources management and quality of environment are very closely interconnected in the developing countries. Serious problem areas in India are identified, such as waterlogging, urban sewage disposal, recurrence of malaria and silting-up of reservoirs. Many of these problems occur due to lack of administrative coordination and fragmentation of large interactive systems into functional areas. Using systems theory a number of action imperatives are identified. Improvement in linkages, better coordination of interactive functions, stimulation of multiple uses of water, improved water management practices and education aimed at water conservation are the important actions to be initiated.
