Water scarcity in India

Yesterday I watched Amir Khan's Satyamev Jayte. Amir has now don the mantle of a social activist and it's heartening to see a celebrity using his status and reach to effect changes. His earlier campaign of Athithi devo bhava was a great step. I watched with stomach churning trepidation as he belt out statistics about the numerous ways we have been polluting our water. The panel was carefully chosen and many of the guest had single handedly changed the situation. The message of the program was we must start rain water harvesting as people in Chennai are doing. Polluting ground water has to be made a criminal offence.
