Abstract:A period of increasing competition for water supplies has increased the risk of water contamination and environmental deterioration, and rising social, economic, and environmental expenses are all affecting water resources. The water shortage in India seems to be becoming worse rather than better. In order to meet the challenges posed by this situation, water professionals and managers need to adapt their thinking about water in a way that is sustainable. Due to the distinctive characteristics of water, which include its necessity for human existence, economic growth, and environmental conservation, as well as the large number of stakeholders involved, this is particularly challenging. A number of difficulties confront those in charge of these essential resources today, highlighting the significance of managing water resources sustainably. This study aims to provide an overview of water scarcity and its sustainable development in the context of India. The significance of this study is to avert this crisis by applying sustainable development, a water management concept that emphasizes the significance of using less water than could be produced or replaced, maximizing positive economic benefits, minimizing negative social and environmental impacts, protecting natural systems, and ensuring that future generations will not have to compromise on their water needs.
