Water security is a critical issue for Indian cities facing both flooding and scarcity due to climate change and rapid urbanization. This study focuses on Guwahati’s Borsola Beel basin and its historic pukhuris to assess current water challenges and resilience strategies. Despite multiple regeneration initiatives, these water bodies suffer from neglect and pollution. Using spatial analysis, policy review, and fieldwork, the research evaluates existing interventions and draws lessons from global case studies. The outcome is a practical toolkit for managing urban water bodies in brownfield contexts, offering a replicable model to support water-smart planning across Indian cities.
