Securing and Preserving the Support of the Community for the Implementation of the Continuous Water Supply System in India

Abstract

The Indian water supply system refers to the infrastructure and systems in place for the distribution and management of water in India. This includes dams, canals, water treatment plants, and distribution networks that supply water to households, businesses, and agricultural regions. In India, the water supply system comprises not only the physical infrastructure but also the governmental policies and regulations that oversee the utilization and conservation of water resources. The governing body or organization responsible for managing the water supply system is striving to earn and uphold the community's backing for their endeavors to establish and sustain a dependable and uninterrupted water supply system in the country. This includes making sure that the community is aware of the changes and benefits that the system will bring, and addressing any concerns or issues that may arise. This paper examines the water supply system adopted in India with its features in terms of technical and socioeconomic. Intermittent water supply can be challenging for households and communities as it can make it difficult to plan for and use water effectively, while continuous water supply is considered more desirable as it provides more flexibility and convenience. The primary objective of transitioning to a continuous water supply system is to enhance the availability of safe and consistent drinking water to every individual residing within the region.
