Water touches every aspect of life, and in India uncertainty over access to and the availability ofthis basic resource may
be reaching crisis levels. As India continues to undergo dramatic shifts caused by a growing economy and population,
competing demands for this limited resource coming from households, industry, and agriculture have wide-ranging implications for the country's future. India's water crisis is rooted in three causes. The first is insufficient water per person as a result
of population growth. The second cause is poor water quality resulting from insufficient and delayed investment in urban
water-treatment facilities. The third problem is dwindling groundwater supplies due to over-extraction by farmers.
Water scarcity is fast becoming urban India's number one woe, with government's own data revealing that residents in 22
out of 32 major cities have to deal with daily shortages. For example, in Delhi approx 3,156 million litres of water (MLD) is
supplied against the requirement of 4,158. But around 40% of the supply is lost in distribution resulting in a much wider gap
between demand and supply than what's recorded. The worst-hit city is Jamshedpur, where the gap between demand and
supply is a yawning 70%. The crisis is acute in Kanpur, Asansol, Dhanbad, Meerut, Faridabad, Visakhapatnam, Madurai and
Hyderabad - where supply fails to meet almost 30% of the demand - according to data provided by states which was placed in
the Lok Sabha during the recently-concluded Parliament session by the urban development ministry. The figures also reveal
that in Greater Mumbai and Delhi - which have the highest water demand among all cities - the gap between demand and supply
is comparatively less. The shortfall is 24% for Delhi and 17% for Mumbai. However, the situation is worse than that.
India's future economic growth is also a concern. If the country cannot expand irrigation or increase agricultural productivity by other means, economic growth will be restricted. Government of India have made a comprehensive plan for creating
a unique platform for deliberating the issues involving all stakeholders including decision makers, politicians, researchers and
entrepreneurs of water resources not only from Indian arena but also from International avenues for getting benefited mutually. There is emphasis throughout the country on watershed development. This involves leveling land and tapping rainwater
in small ponds created by building small dams in the streams (called check dams).
Since Water is the most precious gift of nature can be made to beneficial use to the mankind only if; all the stakeholders
are fully involved in its development and management. By understanding the importance of building public awareness, as it is
vital in getting support in implementation of the objectives, efforts will be put in through national portals and media engagement for effective civil society involvement too in the consultative processes of India Water Week 2013 (IWW-2013) . As a part
of this endeavour, the Ministry of Water Resources has decided to host an International event "India Water Week" on an
annual basis. The first event of this kind India Water Week- 2012 (IWW-2012) has recently been organized during the period
from 10 to 14 April, 2012 with the theme "Water Energy & Food Security: Call for Solutions". The Conference was attended by
about 1000 national and international delegates and an exhibition covering an area of 3000sq.m as well as 5 specialized add-on
events were the highlight of the event.

Filing and Processing an RTI application in India gives us the authority to ask our questions for the government. We mayfile different types of applications such as Passport delays, PF related, Life insurance, Land and Property, State and Centralexaminations, Defense Forces, State and Central banks, amongst others.Infact The Right to Information Act (RTI) is an Actof the Parliament of India "to provide for setting out the practical regime of right to information for citizens" and replaces theerstwhile Freedom of Information Act, 2002. The Act applies to all States and Union Territories of India except the State ofJammu and Kashmir. Under the provisions of the Act, any citizen may request information from a "public authority" (a bodyof Government or "instrumentality of State") which is required to reply expeditiously or within thirty days. The Act alsorequires every public authority to computerize their records for wide dissemination and to pro-actively publish certaincategories of information so that the citizens need minimum recourse to request for information formally. This law was passedby Parliament on 15 June 2005 and came fully into force on 13 October 2005. Information disclosure in India was restricted bythe Official Secrets Act 1923 and various other special laws, which the new RTI Act relaxes.Any citizen of India can submit a written application to the Public Information Officer (PIO) for information. PublicInformation Officer (PIO) is appointed by each authority, comes under The Right to Information Act (RTI). And it is the PIO'sobligation to provide information to citizens of India who request information under the Act. If the request pertains to anotherpublic authority (in whole or part), it is the PIO's responsibility to transfer/forward the concerned portions of the request toa PIO of the other authority within 5 working days. In addition, every public authority is required to designate AssistantPublic Information Officers (APIOs) to receive RTI requests and appeals for forwarding to the PIOs of their public authority.The applicant is required to disclose his name and contact particulars but not any other reasons or justification for seekinginformation.The free flow of information is must for a democratic society as it helps the society to grow and to retain a continuousdebate and discussion among the people. But the access to information held by a public authority was not possible until2005. Before that the common people did not have any legal right to know about the public policies and expenditures. It wasquite ironical that people who voted the persons responsible for policy formation to power and contributed towards thefinancing of huge costs of public activities were denied access to the relevant information. Private bodies are also not withinthe Act's ambit directly. Thus Right to Information Act is a standard or scale of measurement. It is also the democratic needof especially in a country like India which happens to be the largest democracy in the world.
