SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF WATER RESOURCES

The Indian government, through various ministries and autonomous bodies, has established a comprehensive framework for the sustainable management and monitoring of glaciers and glacial lakes in the Indian Himalayan Region.

Key agencies like CWC, NDMA, WIHG, GSI, GBPNIHE, and NCPOR undertake monitoring, research, and disaster mitigation efforts using both remote sensing and field-based observations.
