Despite possessing only about 4% of the world&#8217;s freshwater resources, India supports nearly 18% of the global population, leading to immense pressure on its water systems.

Over-extraction, particularly in states like Punjab, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, has led to a significant decline in water tables, with some regions experiencing a drop of up to 4 meters.
