NITI Aayog Advances Water Budgeting for Climate Resilience

NITI Aayog released a report in November 2025 about 'Water Budgeting' in 18 special areas of India.

This report helps these areas manage their water better, especially where there's not enough water or where the environment is fragile.

The report looks at how much water is available and how much is needed for things like drinking, farming, and industry.

It also talks about how India's water situation is getting worse because people are using too much groundwater and not enough is being replenished.

The report suggests using a special app called 'Varuni' to help with water planning.

It also says that everyone, including farmers and local governments, should work together to make sure water is used wisely.

The goal is to make sure India has enough water in the future, even with climate change.
