India's Water Worries and the Ifs and Buts of Water Privatization

Abstract

While examining the idea and practise of water privatisation, this paper focuses on India. Here, the core purpose is to comprehend how the notion of water privatisation is linked to the issue of ownership. The aim, further is to examine what are the main concerns of India, when it comes to water privatization, and why.

The aims and guiding principles of privatisation differ from those recommended and emphasised by constitution, hence a discussion on this topic is central for contemporary India. It is crucial to determine if India can afford to adopt privatisation in the process of water governance given that the country is a socialist democracy with a written constitution and has practically no experience with water privatisation practises. This paper insists that such questions are important because they strive to discover and comprehend potential obstacles to the idea's execution and the reasons India should be most worried about them.
