Action Planning for Water Resource Management :A Case study of Rajasthan Cities - Vol.15(4), Oct-Dec - New Delhi Institute of Town Planners 2018 - 64-73p.
Climate adaptation necessitates measures towards water resource management, especially in countries like India where water stress is likely to increase with impacts of climate change. In view of this, a strategy for consultative action planning for urban water resource management was developed and tested in 4 Indian cities. Action Plans for water resource management were formulated in consultation with the stakeholders and multi stakeholder platforms were constituted. The concept promotes perception of urban water cycle as a loop with water, wastewater, storm water (and interactions of these elements with solid waste) forming part of the same cycle while aiming towards a circular economy. A six-stage process is adopted for formulation of water-based action plans for cities. In this paper, the strategy adopted for the formulation of water based action plans for two cities in Rajasthan i.e. Kishangarh and Jaisalmer, are discussed
