Replenishing Lakes and Aquifers in India with Special Reference to Ahmedabad City

Author(s) Ms. BAISHALI SAIKAT NIYOGI
Country India
Abstract India faces severe water scarcity challenges, with rapidly depleting groundwater levels and deteriorating surface water bodies. This study examines the current state of water resource management in India, focusing on Ahmedabad city as a case study for implementing sustainable water replenishment strategies. The research analyzes groundwater depletion patterns, surface water availability, and evaluates various artificial recharge techniques including rainwater harvesting, managed aquifer recharge (MAR), and lake restoration initiatives. Data analysis reveals that Ahmedabad's groundwater levels have declined by 2-4 meters annually over the past decade, while surface water bodies have reduced by 60% since 1990. The study proposes an integrated approach combining traditional water conservation methods with modern technology to replenish lakes and aquifers. Key recommendations include establishing artificial recharge structures, implementing rooftop rainwater harvesting systems, and restoring urban water bodies through community participation. The findings suggest that comprehensive water management strategies can potentially restore 30-40% of depleted water resources within a decade if implemented effectively.
