Authors:       Purnima Sharma
Abstract:     Water is elixir for life. There is no existence of life without water. Unfortunately, Water scarcity problem becomes a global problem. Many parts of the world have consumed water beyond its renewal limit which leads towards unsustainable development. In India per capita surface water availability in the years 1991 and 2001 were 2309 and 1902m3 and these are projected to reduce to 1401 and 1191m3 by the years 2025 and 2050 respectively (Water Resources at a Glance 2011). If these condition leftovers for a long time then the country is categorised as water stressed city as per international norms. In fact, many states of India have been facing the water scarcity problem in a large scale. Uttar Pradesh is one of those states which are suffering from water scarcity problem. Uttar Pradesh is the most populated and second largest state by economy of India. It is located in the northwestern part of India. The urban population load of Uttar Pradesh has increased drastically due to migration of rural population towards urban areas for food and employment. Therefore, the process of urbanization and industrialization has been increased rapidly. Due to the over-population this state has been facing many problems such as unemployment, poverty, illiteracy, food and water scarcity etc. Among these the water scarcity is the most serious problem which in turns influence the development processes. Therefore, there is need for a strategy which includes proper planning, guideline and management tools for conserving water. In this reference Rain water harvesting is not a new technology for conserving water, but it should be mandatory for all individual to adopt and enact this technology. The quality of rainwater should be keep in mind before recharging the under-ground aquifer which depends upon air quality, system design and maintenance, materials used, rainfall intensity, length of time between rainfall events, social context as well as water handling. The present study is an attempt to evaluate the quality of rainwater collected from different places in the Lucknow city. On the basis of results some suitable harvesting structures can be implemented for conserving the rainwater.
