Water conservation includes all policies, strategies and activities to sustainably manage natural resource of fresh water, to protect the hydrosphere and to meet the current and future human demand. Population, household size and growth and affluence, all determine how much water is used. It is most essential that equal participation of individuals, society and the government is required for it.

Following precautions must be taken for water conservation and for keeping it free from pollution:

1. Industrial waste should not be thrown into water sources. 

2. Neither take a bath nor wash the clothes near or in water sources. 

3. The weeds and harmful plants should be removed from water sources. 

4. Using traditional and ancient methods of collecting and storing water, building Khadin, Kundi, Kui, Nadi, Johar, pond, etc. and making effective efforts to protect them.

If these meaningful steps are not taken to solve this problem, human beings will have to face more serious problems in future.
