India PM calls for groundwater regulation to prevent theft
Indian Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh underlined that the planning, development and management of water resources must keep pace with current realities. At the Indian Water Week Dr. Singh said one of the problems in achieving better management of water is that the current institutional and legal structures that deal with water in the country are "inadequate, fragmented and therefore need urgent reform". Discussing the declining groundwater table, the Prime Minister pointed out that the present legal situation gives every land holder the right to pump unlimited quantities of water from a bore well on his own ground. There is no regulation of ground water extraction and no coordination among competing uses, he added.
