Rajasthan State Water Plan 2047
Context
The Rajasthan State Water Plan 2047 was launched at the Rajasthan Water Conclave 2026 in Jaipur. The plan serves as a long-term roadmap to ensure water security by 2047, focusing on sustainable drinking water supply, irrigation expansion, groundwater conservation, and climate-resilient water management for one of India's most water-stressed states.
Background
Rajasthan faces chronic water scarcity due to low rainfall, frequent droughts, high groundwater exploitation, and increasing urbanization. Over the years, the state has relied on major projects such as the Indira Gandhi Canal Project, groundwater extraction, and traditional rainwater harvesting systems like baoris, tankas, jhalaras, and khadins. Climate change and rising water demand have further intensified the need for an integrated and sustainable water management strategy.
