The non-uniformity in level of awareness, socio-economic development, education, poverty, practices and rituals and water availability add to the complexity of the task. Despite an estimated total of Rs. 1,105 billion spent on providing safe drinking water since the First Five Year Plan was launched in 1951, lack of safe and clean drinking water continues to be a major obstacle and a national

of fracking on drinking water, discovered that there was an effect on drinking water sources due to fracking. This method of fracking, which involves the breaking of rocks with pressurized water and chemicals into the ground, has been cost effective as far as dropping gas prices, but has instead compromised drinking water. The EPA reported, “We found specific instances where one or more mechanisms led to impacts on drinking water resources, including contamination of drinking water wells…Approximately

Most American see bottled water as a necessity, even though bottled water did not exist numerous years ago. Drinking out of a water bottle has become the customary drinking source for most Americans.
