  • Punitive restrictions on the misuse of water
  • Less government participation in water management and more in regulating groundwater withdrawals, both collective and individual
  • Massive awareness campaign to conserve water and promote its judicious use
  • Encourage widespread rain-harvesting by involving communities both in urban and rural areas
