With reference to the piece by Romit Sen and Kamal Vatta, "The importance of water management" (March 22), water is gradually becoming a scarce commodity. Rainwater harvesting and building dams are some of the means by which we can conserve water.
Charges on water should be increased to deter people from wasting it. They should be made aware of ways to conserve water. Without water conservation, economic growth and development would not be possible. If water is conserved it can be diverted to industries that depend on water and thus development and economic growth would be brought about.
Maids working in homes should be educated about the benefits of conserving water.
