Abstract
In today’s world we are facing an acute shortage of resources like Fuel, Clean Water, Shelter and Hygienic Food. And only 0.1%, of the total Water present on Earth, is available as clean and fresh water to the living beings. Also the human population on Earth is increasing day by day and most of the sources of clean water are depleting. Ground water levels are going down rapidly and the pollution of ground water by chemicals [Water and Soil Pollution] has alarming effects on the sustainable growth of Human Beings. Most of the clean water is wasted by the households and this usually takes place in Modern societies and recent establishments. This review paper discusses the need for water management, measures to control water scarcity and the idea of smart water grid for conservation of water and the challenges in its implementation in India.
