"Water and The Laws in India": A book by Ramaswamy R Iyer
Review of the book that talks on water-resource policy, management, conservation, conflict-resolution, etc and water laws in the country Posted on 12 Oct, 2009 03:16 PM

Water and the laws in IndiaWater is a complex subject that gives rise to many issues, and several of them have legal aspects. The book proceeds from various water-related problems and issues to the legal questions that arise in those contexts, examines the adequacy and appropriateness of the relevant existing laws, if any, and considers the changes and reforms that are needed. It seeks to cover the ground extensively. The book also briefly raises and explores the case for a constitutional declaration on water and an over-arching national water law. This compendious volume thus straddles two domains, viz.,

(i) water-resource policy, management, conservation, conflict-resolution, etc (in itself a multiple domain encompassing many concerns and disciplines); and

(ii) water law
