Event Details : 'Waste and Water Management in India' Gloden Jubilee Lectures on Environment by Smt Sunita Narain, Centre for Science and Environment (CSE)
People in cities get water in their houses, discharge waste, and see their rivers die. They don’t make the connection between flush toilets and dying rivers. Ferreting out data from government offices, CSE mapped 71 cities, to uncover innumerable cases where what we know today as a drain was once a river. The Report calls for decisive and wholesale change, lest we stand accused of deliberate ‘hydrocide’.

Chair: Prof M.G.K. Menon, Life Trustee, India International Centre
