- Water is vital to life sustenance. But today the serious scarcity and more seriously the scarcity amid plenty syndrome of drinking water, water for plants and sanitation, convert the situation to a deep crisis. Large scale abuses of the water resource by the modern development activities and total neglect of the traditional water structures which had been built for the purposes of water retention and efficient storage besides performing a number of environmental functions which ensured sustainability, is the major factor responsible for the serious problem. The book attempt to trace the historical processes of water resource development and initiate a debate on the integration of traditional system of water harvesting with the modern methods. The people`s participation in their management was a key factor of the success of traditional systems. However, the prospect of the sustainability of water resource development is weakened by de-emphasizing the social absorption of irrigation technology and over emphasizing the engineering solution to the problem of water resources.
