Understanding the river’s regular
flow as an urgent socio-political concern requires grassroots engagement and
accommodating views of those who have been living there for generations.

How everyday politics operate in flow management! Now published. Ah!

Policymakers alone shouldn't dictate the fate of #India's rivers, says @sidagarwal.

"Where are the voices of the river people? The nation’s farmers? The fishing communities? The...ordinary citizens who live on the river’s banks and depend on its waters?"

It is high time we declare rivers as 'natural heritage' and demarcate connected water bodies (wetlands, ponds and lakes) as protected 'water sanctuary' in revenue records @GWFWater @WaterWatch2 @LucknowWise @fridays_india @WWFINDIA @Indian_Rivers @SanctuaryAsia @intlrivers

[UN Land and Drought @UNCCD]

August is #WaterQualityMonth.

Since the 1980s, global water consumption has increased by about 1% each year. Land degradation and water shortages are closely linked. Healthy land has the natural ability to store and filter water, but this capacity is lost when land is degraded.

[Gaon Connection English @GaonConnectionE]

There are strong historical lessons to prove riverine floods were not always considered calamitous the way we do today. #Floods had the role of the pulse. Here is why we should stop demonising riverine floods.
