Exam-ready takeaways
The Vice-President recalled that more than two decades ago, he undertook a 19,000-km Ratha Yatra across Tamil Nadu, one of the objectives of which was to create awareness about river interlinking, water conservation and proper management of water resources.
The Vice-President noted that India accounts for about 2.4 per cent of the world’s land area and 18 per cent of its population, while possessing only about 4 per cent of global freshwater resources.
Shri C. P. Radhakrishnan said that as India moves towards becoming a developed economy by 2047, efficient and sustainable water management will be critical.
