Fight Against CORRUPTION By definition, corruption can be called a problem of routine deviation from the established norms set by public officials and parties.  World Bank defines it as the misuse of public property for private gain.

SAVE EVERY DROP Over 60 per cent of Indian homes do not have tap water. THE PROBLEM It is called blue gold and in the very near future, wars will be fought over it. By 2020 the world is expected to fall 17 per cent short of water. In India, as of now, only one in three households has piped water. The future looks drier.

In Karnataka, for instance, most towns get 67 litres of water per head, though citizens in Bangalore use an average of 135 litres a day. If water is priced higher it will be used sparingly. Encourage cities to invest in water recycling plants. At the micro level, promote innovative solutions like that of Bangalore-based architect couple Chitra and Viswanath who incorporated rooftop rainwater harvesting in their home in 1995. The process now yields 80,000 litres of water every year.
