&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;More than 1000 villages of the state are expected to be affected by a severe water crisis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Lokesh Verma, a farmer from Nainital&amp;rsquo;s Chanfi village, says this is the third year in a row that he is bearing losses in agriculture. &amp;ldquo;I have lost around Rs 2 lakh and there&amp;rsquo;s a debt of Rs 70,000 to pay off. I grow strawberries, guavas and peas in my 15 bighas of land, but there is not enough water in the hills to irrigate crops properly,&amp;rdquo; he says.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He says the only source of water in his village is Khalsa river but it has been running dry for the last two years. &amp;quot;During winters, we can get water from springs but in summers everything is dried up.&amp;rdquo; Lokesh thinks the situation is going to deteriorate this year.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;No water for water projects&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Uttarakhand is staring at a water crisis despite being home to a host of rivers and tributaries like Yamuna, Kosi, Sarayu, Mandakini, Sharda, Ramganga, Dhauliganga and others. A report prepared in January by the water regulatory body Uttarakhand Jal Sansthan (UJS) says 93 of its 500 water projects, which supply filtered water that takes care of both irrigation and drinking needs, have witnessed more than 90 percent decrease in water discharge in the past three years. The report notes that 268 projects have seen water discharge reduce by 75-90 percent and another 139 projects have seen it dip by 50-75 percent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
State chief secretary Utpal Kumar Singh has asked district magistrates and UJS officials to reserve water tankers and generators to deal with the situation this summer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chief general manager of UJS, S.K. Gupta, says they are concerned after going through the January report. &amp;ldquo;We do not want the situation to worsen. By now, we have arranged around 250 tankers to supply water,&amp;rdquo; he says, adding that increasing construction in the hills and decline in agriculture is responsible for the problem. &amp;quot;When there is no agriculture how will the ecosystem balance?&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;

A report prepared in January by the water regulatory body Uttarakhand Jal Sansthan (UJS) says 93 of its 500 water projects, which supply filtered water that takes care of both irrigation and drinking needs, have witnessed more than 90 percent decrease in water discharge in the past three years. The report notes that 268 projects have seen water discharge reduce by 75-90 percent and another 139 projects have seen it dip by 50-75 percent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;State chief secretary Utpal Kumar Singh has asked district magistrates and UJS officials to reserve water tankers and generators to deal with the situation this summer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chief general manager of UJS, S.K. Gupta, says they are concerned after going through the January report. &amp;ldquo;We do not want the situation to worsen. By now, we have arranged around 250 tankers to supply water,&amp;rdquo; he says, adding that increasing construction in the hills and decline in agriculture is responsible for the problem. &amp;quot;When there is no agriculture how will the ecosystem balance?&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.indiawaterportal.org/articles/uttarakhand-braces-itself-dry-days&quot; title=&quot;http://www.indiawaterportal.org/articles/uttarakhand-braces-itself-dry-days&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;More than 1000 villages of the state are expected to be affected by a severe water crisis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Lokesh Verma, a farmer from Nainital&amp;rsquo;s Chanfi village, says this is the third year in a row that he is bearing losses in agriculture. &amp;ldquo;I have lost around Rs 2 lakh and there&amp;rsquo;s a debt of Rs 70,000 to pay off. I grow strawberries, guavas and peas in my 15 bighas of land, but there is not enough water in the hills to irrigate crops properly,&amp;rdquo; he says.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He says the only source of water in his village is Khalsa river but it has been running dry for the last two years. &amp;quot;During winters, we can get water from springs but in summers everything is dried up.&amp;rdquo; Lokesh thinks the situation is going to deteriorate this year.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;No water for water projects&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Uttarakhand is staring at a water crisis despite being home to a host of rivers and tributaries like Yamuna, Kosi, Sarayu, Mandakini, Sharda, Ramganga, Dhauliganga and others. A report prepared in January by the water regulatory body Uttarakhand Jal Sansthan (UJS) says 93 of its 500 water projects, which supply filtered water that takes care of both irrigation and drinking needs, have witnessed more than 90 percent decrease in water discharge in the past three years. The report notes that 268 projects have seen water discharge reduce by 75-90 percent and another 139 projects have seen it dip by 50-75 percent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
State chief secretary Utpal Kumar Singh has asked district magistrates and UJS officials to reserve water tankers and generators to deal with the situation this summer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chief general manager of UJS, S.K. Gupta, says they are concerned after going through the January report. &amp;ldquo;We do not want the situation to worsen. By now, we have arranged around 250 tankers to supply water,&amp;rdquo; he says, adding that increasing construction in the hills and decline in agriculture is responsible for the problem. &amp;quot;When there is no agriculture how will the ecosystem balance?&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;

<em>More than 1000 villages of the state are expected to be affected by a severe water crisis.<br />
</em><br />
Lokesh Verma, a farmer from Nainital&rsquo;s Chanfi village, says this is the third year in a row that he is bearing losses in agriculture. &ldquo;I have lost around Rs 2 lakh and there&rsquo;s a debt of Rs 70,000 to pay off. I grow strawberries, guavas and peas in my 15 bighas of land, but there is not enough water in the hills to irrigate crops properly,&rdquo; he says.<br />
<br />
He says the only source of water in his village is Khalsa river but it has been running dry for the last two years. &quot;During winters, we can get water from springs but in summers everything is dried up.&rdquo; Lokesh thinks the situation is going to deteriorate this year.<br />
<br />
<em>No water for water projects<br />
</em><br />
Uttarakhand is staring at a water crisis despite being home to a host of rivers and tributaries like Yamuna, Kosi, Sarayu, Mandakini, Sharda, Ramganga, Dhauliganga and others. A report prepared in January by the water regulatory body Uttarakhand Jal Sansthan (UJS) says 93 of its 500 water projects, which supply filtered water that takes care of both irrigation and drinking needs, have witnessed more than 90 percent decrease in water discharge in the past three years. The report notes that 268 projects have seen water discharge reduce by 75-90 percent and another 139 projects have seen it dip by 50-75 percent.<br />
<br />
State chief secretary Utpal Kumar Singh has asked district magistrates and UJS officials to reserve water tankers and generators to deal with the situation this summer.<br />
<br />
Chief general manager of UJS, S.K. Gupta, says they are concerned after going through the January report. &ldquo;We do not want the situation to worsen. By now, we have arranged around 250 tankers to supply water,&rdquo; he says, adding that increasing construction in the hills and decline in agriculture is responsible for the problem. &quot;When there is no agriculture how will the ecosystem balance?&rdquo;<br />

Uttarakhand braces itself for dry days -Saurabh Sharma

-India Water Portal More than 1000 villages of the state are expected to be affected by a severe water crisis. Lokesh Verma, a farmer from Nainital’s Chanfi village, says this is the third year in a row that he is bearing losses in agriculture. “I have lost around Rs 2 lakh and there’s a debt of Rs 70,000 to pay off. I grow strawberries, guavas and peas in my 15 bighas of land, but there is not enough water in the hills to irrigate crops properly,” he says. He says the only source of water in his village is Khalsa river but it has been running dry for the last two years. "During winters, we can get water from springs but in summers everything is dried up.” Lokesh thinks the situation is going to deteriorate this year. No water for water projects Uttarakhand is staring at a water crisis despite being home to a host of rivers and tributaries like Yamuna, Kosi, Sarayu, Mandakini, Sharda, Ramganga, Dhauliganga and others. A report prepared in January by the water regulatory body Uttarakhand Jal Sansthan (UJS) says 93 of its 500 water projects, which supply filtered water that takes care of both irrigation and drinking needs, have witnessed more than 90 percent decrease in water discharge in the past three years. The report notes that 268 projects have seen water discharge reduce by 75-90 percent and another 139 projects have seen it dip by 50-75 percent. State chief secretary Utpal Kumar Singh has asked district magistrates and UJS officials to reserve water tankers and generators to deal with the situation this summer. Chief general manager of UJS, S.K. Gupta, says they are concerned after going through the January report. “We do not want the situation to worsen. By now, we have arranged around 250 tankers to supply water,” he says, adding that increasing construction in the hills and decline in agriculture is responsible for the problem.
