NEW DELHI: Almost 22% of groundwater (assessed un- its) in the country has either dried up or is in the ‘critical’ and ‘over-exploited’ categories, Jal Shakti (water resources) minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat said as he emphasised the need to focus on efficient use of water resources and noted that 10% of water saving in the agriculture sector now would make it available for all users for the next 50 years.
新德里：印度近22%的地下水已經乾涸或處於“危險”或“過度開發”之列，水利部長加金德拉·辛格·謝卡瓦特表示，他強調應該關注水資源的有效利用,
The ‘Dynamic Ground Water Resources of India’ report of the Central Ground Water Board (CGWB) showed that 1,499 out of 6,881 assessed units (blocks/mandals/taluks) in 2017 came under ‘over-exploited’ (1,186 units) and ‘critical’ (313 units) categories. The report sought immediate change in extraction pattern of groundwater and surface water interventions.
中央地下水委員會(CGWB)發佈的《印度動態地下水資源》報告顯示，2017年，在6881個評估區域中，有1499個屬於“過度開發”(1186個)和“危險”(313個)兩個類別。報告要求立即改變地下水和地表水的開採方式。
With annual extraction of groundwater in these units exceeding annual replenishment, Shekhawat told TOI on Friday that it was time to improve ‘demand side’ management by taking multiple measures instead of only managing ‘supply side’ of water resources.
謝卡瓦特週五對《印度時報》表示，由於這些地區每年抽取的地下水超過了每年補充的水量，現在是採取多種措施來改善“需求方”管理的時候了，而不是僅僅管理水資源的“供給方”。
Agriculture sector consumes nearly 89% of available water resources in India. We really need to help farmers and create awareness among them so that they can move towards water use efficiency measures such as drip and sprinkler irrigation,” he said.
他表示：“農業部門消耗了印度近89%的可用水資源。我們應提高農民的意識，這樣他們就會採取節水措施，比如滴灌和噴灌。”
The highest number of water stressed blockswere in Tamil Nadu (541) followed by Rajasthan (218), Uttar Pradesh (139), Telangana (137), Punjab (111) and Haryana (81).
用水壓力地區最多的是泰米爾納德邦(541個)，其次是拉賈斯坦邦(218個)、北方邦(139個)、特倫甘納邦(137個)、旁遮普邦(111個)和哈里亞納邦(81個)。
The CGWB report showed that ‘over-exploited’ areas were mostly concentrated in parts of Punjab, Haryana, Delhi and western Uttar Pradesh (where even though replenishable resources are abundant, there has been indiscriminate withdrawal of groundwater leading to over-exploitation); parts of Rajasthan and Gujarat (where due to arid climate, groundwater recharge is limited); and parts of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Tamil Nadu where due to inherent properties of crystalline aquifers, the groundwater availability is low.
CGWB的報告顯示，“過度開發”地區主要集中在旁遮普邦、哈里亞納邦、德里和北方邦西部的部分地區(在這些地區，儘管可補充的資源豐富，但不加選擇地抽取地下水，導致過度開發);
拉賈斯坦邦和古吉拉特邦部分地區(由於乾旱氣候，地下水補給有限);
在卡納塔克邦、安得拉邦、泰倫加納邦和泰米爾納德邦的部分地區，由於水晶體含水層的固有特性，地下水的可用性很低。

Construct dams, check dams, interlink all the rivers and harvest rain water harvesting system in every building and farm. The problem of dry groundwater will be solved automatically within a year.
建水壩，把所有河流連接起來，儲蓄雨水。地下水乾涸問題將在一年內解決。

Minister is simply making statement. He can interconnect rivers to save water. Rain water harvesting system should be done on top priority, central govt can allocate funds for the same
這位部長只是在發表聲明。他可以採取實際行動，連接河流蓄水，優先建立雨水收集系統，中央政府可以為此撥款

Don't just give statistical figures about depletion of ground water resources. Please inform, what action / initiative is being taken to restore it.

Why we are allowing water to get to sea which is already having level to drown few cities near sea. ries and water� reserve which can help in eliminating difficulties in time of no rain

Stop giving subsidy on water and electricity to farmers. Stop buying Basmati rice in Punjab and Haryana if you are serious
停止對農民的水電補貼。

I have wondered for a long time why ground water issue was not discussed any where. This is a very serious matter and must be addressed before it causes more damages. Without knowing the consequences, people dig a birewell indiscrimantely. Government has to regulate it and provide alternative source such as by building canals and joining rivers.
很長時間以來，我一直想知道為什麼沒有人討論地下水問題。這是一個非常嚴重的問題，趕緊加以解決，以免造成更多損失。人們挖深井，不知道會造成什麼後果。政府必須對此進行管理，並提供替代水源，如修大壩

We have enough water coming in all the time from rain which we can store and we have ultimate source sea water desalination for all coastal towns.
降雨量大，我們可以儲存雨水。還可以淡化海水，供應所有沿海城鎮。

Unless CHEMICAL FARMING is totally banned & we return to our traditional COW BASED NATURAL FARMING, Water Consumption, Wastage & Shortages can not be avoided. Follow Sikkim.
除非完全禁止施肥，回到傳統的自然耕作，否則水的消耗、浪費和短缺是不可避免的。

The problem of ground water due to over exploitation in last couple of decades cannot be solved in a couple of years.Western practice of water consumption is not suited in a highly populated country with scarce water resources.
過去幾十年由於過度開採而造成的地下水問題不可能在幾年內解決。西方的用水方式不適合人口眾多、水資源稀缺的國家。
