Effective groundwater management in urban areas
Often groundwater pumping is undertaken assuming the resource to be infinite. This myth has been shattered in the last few decades with increasing scarcity and deterioration in terms of quality as a consequence of over-exploitation and mismanagement of this resource to meet competing demands for drinking water and other needs in urban cities. However, managing groundwater is not an easy task. This is simply because a groundwater molecule underground is always in motion but never visible in situ. This inherent dynamic and hidden nature of ground water in terms of quality and quantity makes it difficult to manage groundwater resources

Climate refugees: Implications for India
The fourth assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) mentioned the “potential for population migration” due to increase in the number of areas affected by droughts and an increase in the intense tropical cyclones activities. Available scientific evidences indicate that a large number of people might be displaced due to climate change. However, much of the literature on this issue refers to the question of whether the people forced to migrate as a consequence of climate change should be described as climate refugees. The international community is yet to recognise this new category of migrants.
