Abstract- Water resources being renewable, yet World’s level of ground water is steadily declining. The main
users of water are Agriculture, Domestic, Industries and Environment. Due to increase in unplanned
urbanization, industrialization, geometric progression of population growth, change in pattern of agriculture, lack
of proper technical know-how’s and non-implementation of appropriate technology at river Basin level,
insufficient supply of pure and fresh water has been observed in recent years. Moreover, irrigation is major
consumer of water in India in addition to the water demand for industrial processing and urban day by day due to
increasing economic activities. It is essential for the policy makers to work out the optimum demand of water for
different purposes from available water resources. This paper reviews the prevailing approaches for assessing the
water resources and its managerial aspect to get rid of the future challenges.
