either draw from proximate surface water bodies or draw subsurface water. Water treatment plants are either lacking in many
areas or are maintained inadequately. There are very few areas
having continuous water supply and many cities face the problem
of infrequent and irregular water supply. Poor and slum areas
have the sharing points of water supply such as public taps and
tube wells which cater to the underserved households. Over the
past, significant improvements have been witnessed but it
remains inadequate in terms of overall coverage and good quality
due to rapid urbanization and low resource allocation, among
other factors (Mahal 2010). In rural areas, shared hand pumps,
tube wells and tap water are commonly found as main source of
drinking water.

development challenge that has profound health and gender
