Plans to revive 200 water bodies and other steps taken by Delhi Government to improve water supply

India Today  

Days after the report released by Niti Aayog on shortage of water, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal assured that the capital will not face any such issue in next two years. Highlights from Niti Aayog Report India is suffering from 'the worst water crisis' in its history with about 60 crore people facing high to extreme water stress and about two lakh people dying every year due to inadequate access to safe water, Niti Aayog said in a report today. "Currently, 600 million Indians face high to extreme water stress and about two lakh people die every year due to inadequate access to safe water," Niti Aayog said in the report. Citing data by agencies like Dalburg Analysis, FAO and UNICEF, the report said 40 per cent of population will have no access to drinking water by 2030 and 21 cities, including New Delhi, Bengaluru and Hyderabad, will run out of groundwater by 2020, affecting 100 million people.
