Report on Conservation of Water Resources and Control of Water Pollution

Abstract

While the country's water resources are yet to be fully harnessed the situation with regard to available supply is aggravated by an increasing degree of pollution in almost all the river courses. With the rapid industrialization, growing urbanization and increase in population in many parts of the country there is an indiscriminate discharge of untreated or inadequately treated community and industrial wastes into the water courses. Communities and industries have to spend more in treating. polluted waters to make them fit for their use.
