Assessment of Narmada Water Supply System before and after implementation in Kachchh region - Case study of Anjar and Gandhidham

Cities have become more susceptible to water scarcity than ever before. Climate change and resultant uncertain weather patterns are forcing cities to take extreme steps to combat severe water crisis, especially during summer months. Indian cities are no exceptions. Anjar and Gandhidham from Kachchh district, falls under the semi-arid zone as per Gujarat’s agroclimatic zone classification and are characterized as water stressed and drought-prone areas and hence due to water paucity the region has been historically dependent upon distant water source.
