At least 50 to 100 litres of water per day is necessary to meet the basic physiological and hygienic needs of an individual. People who are restricted to a per capita supply of 20 litres per day are at risk of severe health issues. Rural population have lower economic resources compared to urban inhabitants typically. This has a direct impact on their water consumption patterns. Urban water management typically involves the establishment of a network of underground pipes to provide water supply, sewerage, and drainage services.

We rely on taps and sandpipers to distribute water. They are sourced from either surface or groundwater and treated accordingly.
