ITPI journalSummary: The paper narrates that increasing level of urbanization and population growth has put immense pressure on basic services in urban centres. With increasing economic growth rates and urban immigration, there has been a considerable demand for domestic and industrial water use. An increase in water demand in both rural and urban areas would require a comprehensive understanding of the rural-urban water nexus. Urban water demands are likely to grow over the next decade. The paper argues that there is a need to address water supply policies at a micro level instead of the current pan-macro approach.
