Submitted by sheeja on Sun, 2011-05-01 09:30
Unplanned urbanisation and spiralling population have resulted in severe water crisis in Delhi.

Majority of the citizens depend primarily on groundwater to meet their daily requirements, as DJB’s service is inadequate and erratic. A large portion of the city is not even connected to the Boards’ supply network.
