In our daily life water has a main role.Now India is facing the worst water crisis in its history, and 21 Indian cities will run out of groundwater by 2020, a new report from the NITI Aayog – a government think tank – said, highlighting the need for “urgent and improved” management of water resources. The top five cities are Chennai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Mumbai.
Facts of Water crisis:
Among World, 600 million people face high-to-
extreme water stress.75% of households do not have proper drinking water on premise. 84% rural Households do not have piped water access.70% of our water is contaminated; India is currently ranked 120 among 122 countries in the water quality
index. Ground water index is decreasing day by day.

Water scarcity can't be fixed without fixing agriculture in India. But All we can do for water is saving rain water. Rainwater harvesting is the only method to conservation of water.
Rain may soon be the only source of clean water.Rain water harvesting is collection and storage of rain water that runs off from roof tops, parks, roads, open grounds, etc. This water run off can be either stored or recharged into the ground water. Rainwater harvesting systems use the principle of conserving rainwater where it falls and have the following benefits:
1.Helps meet ever increasing demand of water.
2.Improves quality and quantity of groundwater.
3.Reduces flooding.
Waste water management and rain water collection is the only way to save water. Please Don't waste water. Please!!!!!!!
