Nitin Gadkari calls for innovation and sharing of resources on water conservation
New Delhi, Feb 22 (IBNS): Union Minister for Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation Nitin Gadkari on Thursday called upon research organizations to innovate in the area of water conservation and sustainable management of water resources.
He has stressed upon the need to study advanced technologies and procedures like cloud bursting and water accounting being used in other parts of the world, and adopt those that are feasible for our country.
Gadkari was addressing the 37th Annual General Meeting of the National Institute of Hydrology Society in New Delhi on Thursday.
The Minister said that a lot of people and organizations are doing very good work in this field, and we need to network them on a single platform.
"Many departments are doing the same kind of work to achieve the same objective, but there is a lack of proper coordination and information sharing among them," he said.
In this regard Gadkari suggested that a website should be created for sharing available resources, information and best practices available in different parts of the country.
