Region: Maharashtra, India
Maharashtra, a state in western India, has been facing a severe water scarcity problem for many years. The problem has been exacerbated by factors such as population growth, urbanization, climate change, and poor water management practices.
Some of the key factors contributing to water scarcity in Maharashtra include:
1. Uneven distribution of rainfall: The state experiences an uneven distribution of rainfall, with some areas receiving heavy rainfall while others remain dry. This has led to water scarcity in many parts of the state.
2. Overexploitation of groundwater: With limited surface water sources, many people in Maharashtra rely on groundwater for their daily needs. However, overexploitation of groundwater has led to the depletion of aquifers, which has further worsened the water scarcity problem.
3. Drought: Maharashtra is prone to drought due to its geography and climatic conditions. In recent years, the state has witnessed severe droughts, leading to crop failures, loss of livelihoods, and migration of people from rural to urban areas.
4. Urbanization: As cities and towns in Maharashtra continue to grow, there is a greater demand for water to support the expanding population and industries. This has put additional pressure on already limited water resources.
