According to a report by Niti Aayog,\u00a021 Indian cities will run out of groundwater by next year, including the capital New Delhi and the information technology hub of Bengaluru. Two hundred thousand Indians already die every year because they don\u2019t have a safe water supply, the report said. A shocking 600 million people face high to extreme water stress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is still an evolving discussion, but one needs to get a clear picture of water consumption by industries. There could be a disclosure on water by companies in their balance sheets, said a senior official to the paper.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The government will set targets for consumption for each industry once it gauges the present consumption level.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Experts have said that the royalty for the water usage is very cheap, compared to energy.

Also, India uses three to five times more water than other nations like China, Israel and the US, according to the data by Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The ministry launched a campaign for behavioural change of the public towards conserving water on July 1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The government plans to create a policy to gauge the per-unit consumption of water for which companies soon have to do a water audit, according to a\u00a0 report by\u00a0Business Standard.
