Abstract
Today with the rapid increase in the population, the gap between demand and supply of resources has been doubled. To overcome this gap increase in industrial revolution came into existence causing the severe damage to nature and its resources. Today our aim is not only to overcome the gap between demand and supply but also to manage these resources so that our future generations can also use them. Water, everyone’s need is the major resource which is severely affected and being polluted enormously. In context of India if we look towards our biggest river basin i.e. River Ganga, nourishing the agricultural fields, providing water for domestic and commercial purposes is majorly polluted due to industrial effluents and chemicals. We still have our resources plenty in amount but only if we manage them properly with new management techniques. We are the caretakers of these resources, not owners; all these resources belong to our future generations.
