The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs held a national interaction with 75 AMRUT Shallow Aquifer Management cities under the Catch the Rain campaign. The discussion focused on urban groundwater recharge, shallow aquifer management and climate-resilient water planning. The initiative is significant because Indian cities face increasing stress from water scarcity, flooding and unplanned groundwater extraction. AMRUT is a major urban transformation mission aimed at improving basic urban infrastructure. The event is useful for questions on urban governance, water security and climate adaptation.
