Water is essential for maintaining healthy Environments and for social and economic development.

Due to increase in demand and dissipated use and due to continuous increase in the population brought about stress in fresh water resources.

Do you believe a fact “By 2025, 1 800 million people will be living in countries or regions with absolute water scarcity, and two-thirds of the world population could be under stress conditions”.

About 20% of the world’s population live in countries where there is a scarcity of water and they are unable to access natural water source. At present 2.6 billion lack access to proper sanitation and 1.1 billion people lack access to safe water.

A country with increasing threat to its water supply is known as ‘water stressed’. By 2025 about 1800 million people will be living in countries or regions with absolute water scarcity, and two-thirds of the world population could be under stress conditions.
