Transforming water policy and law: a water manifesto for the Government of India [1]

This paper will first provide a synoptic account of the problems relating to water; from that diagnostic statement it will proceed to an adumbration of the responses needed and the changes in water policy that they call for; and it will then outline the water law reform that this requires. The structure of this paper entails references to the same themes under four different heads (problems, answers, policies and laws).
