Kokancha Pani

Compared to other regions of Maharashtra, the Konkan receives considerably more rainfall, and its rainfall is relatively assured. Yet, the water situation in Konkan is far from satisfactory. Why is this so? What happens to all this water? Why does such a vast quantity of rainwater flow away every year through rivers and streams?

What if this region, renowned as the land of Parashurama, were to adopt a little careful planning and effective water management?

This book presents an expert’s critical analysis of the water-related challenges facing Konkan and suggests practical solutions for better water conservation and management.
