This paper examines the groundwater and surface water situation in Gujarat State, India. Constant depletion of groundwater and rapid quality deterioration call for legislation to prevent over-exploitation, and adoption of a rational water pricing policy based on a volumetric system. In the case of surface water governance, enhancement of institutional capacity for managing resettlement and rehabilitation problems, a complementary role for rain water harvesting, and community involvement in irrigation management including legislation on participatory irrigation management (PIM) are some of the immediate reform initiatives that have been emphasized. |
