505 _aIndia’s water bottling industry today stands on an annual worth of about 1800 crore rupees. If Lutyen’s Delhi receives 400 liters per person per day, the slums of Najafgarh receive less than 30 liters per person per day. This crisis is rooted not so much in the overall availability of water, as in the patterns of consumption and failure to regulate consumption through appropriate and equitable tariff structure. The urban mindset that seeks to source water from the rural countryside, rather than focusing on its conservation. The film travels from Delhi to Indore. Bombay to Chennai, exploring the politics and economics of urban water supplies. We come across the same solution – the construction of mega projects to bring water from distant locations, with all the attendant problems of displacing rural people from their homes and livelihoods, upwardly mobile urban populations will simply ensure a continually growing need of more water.
