Abstract
It's that time of the year again when mercury rises and taps run dry. The acute water shortage forces residents of even metropolises such as Delhi to send Mayday messages to officials. But demand far outstrips supply. This wide gap is filled by the illegal extraction of groundwater -- a rising trend that has led to an alarming dip in the water table of the National Capital Region (ncr). Ironically, official statistics do not paint such a grim picture because they gloss over actual figures pertaining to groundwater usage.
