Ground Water Pollution

<\/div>\n

Central Ground Water Board (CGWB) generates ground water quality data on a regional scale through ground water quality monitoring throughout the country. This monitoring indicates the occurrence of Fluoride, Arsenic, Nitrate, Iron and Heavy Metals beyond the BIS permissible limits for human consumption in isolated pockets in various parts of the country.<\/p>\n

State-wise number of partly affected Districts with different contaminants in Ground Water are given below.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Water being a State subject, initiatives on water management including conservation and water harvesting in the Country is primarily States\u2019 responsibility. However, the important measures taken by the Central Government for conservation, management of ground water and effective implementation of rain water harvesting in the country are available at the following URL:\u00a0http:\/\/jalshakti-dowr.gov.in\/sites\/default\/files\/Steps_to_control_water_depletion_ Feb2021.pdf<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A number of States have done notable work in the field of water management\/conservation. Of these, mention can be made of \u2018Mukhya Mantri Jal Swavlamban Abhiyan\u2019 in Rajasthan, \u2018Sujalam Sufalam Abhiyan\u2019 in Gujarat, \u2018Mission Kakatiya\u2019 in Telangana, ‘Neeru Chettu\u2019 in Andhra Pradesh, \u2018Paani Bachao, Paisa Kamao\u2019 in Punjab and \u2018Jal Hi Jeevan\u2019 in Haryana among others.<\/p>\n

With a view to facilitate sustainable development of ground water, Central Ground Water Authority (CGWA) is presently granting No Objection Certificates (NOCs) for groundwater extraction with mandatory conditions in 19 States and 02 Union Territories (UTs) as per the extant ground water regulation guidelines. In balance States\/UTs they are regulating as per their extant provisions.<\/p>\n

The latest guidelines (with pan-India applicability) for regulation and control of groundwater extraction in the country have been notified by the Ministry on 24 Sep 2020. As per the guidelines all new\/ existing industries and industries seeking expansion, infrastructure projects and mining projects extracting groundwater shall be required to seek NOC from CGWA or, the concerned State\/ UT Ground Water Authority.<\/p>\n

Further, the guidelines provide for registering the drilling rigs by the States\/UTs to maintain a database of wells drilled by them to control illegal extraction of groundwater.<\/p>\n

Government of India launched Jal Shakti Abhiyan (JSA) in 2019, a time bound campaign with a mission mode approach intended to improve water availability including ground water conditions in the water stressed blocks of 256 districts in India. In this regard, teams of officers from Central Government along-with technical officers from Ministry of Jal Shakti were deputed to visit water stressed districts and to work in close collaboration with district level officials to undertake suitable interventions.<\/p>\n

In addition \u2018Jal Shakti Abhiyan \u2013 Catch the Rain\u2019 campaign has been launched by Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister of India on 22 March 2021. The Campaign will be undertaken across the country, in both rural and urban areas, with the theme \u201ccatch the rain, where it falls, when it falls\u201d. It is being implemented from 22nd March 2021 to 30th November, 2021 during the pre-monsoon and monsoon period in the country. It is being launched as a Jan Andolan to take water conservation at grass-root level through people\u2019s participation for sustainable management of water resources.<\/p>\n
