The total annual ground water abstraction in India is about 245 km3, out of which about 90 percent is consumed for irrigation.<\/p>\n<p>The states of Punjab and Haryana are the worst affected and the study led by Prof.Rajiv Sinha and his PhD student, Suneel Kumar Joshi, shows that shallow groundwater fell from 2 meters below ground level (bgl) during 1974, to about 30 metres bgl in 2010. This translate to an average loss of groundwater of more than 50 km3 (1.0 km3\/year) particularly after 2002.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>The study reveals that the rice cultivation area increased from 1.92 Lac to 14.22 Lac hectares between 1966-67 and 2017-18 for Haryana and from 2.27 Lac to 30.64 Lac hectares between 1960-61 and 2017-18 in Punjab. As a result, ground water abstraction increased to fulfill the demand.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Also, the most significant decline in groundwater level is recorded along the Ghaggar Hakra paleochannel (Kurukshetra, Patiala and Fatehabad districts), and in along the incised valley of the Yamuna River (parts of Panipat and Karnal districts).<\/p>\n<p>The authors suggest that the rate of groundwater abstraction in Punjab and Haryana, which make up the leading agricultural region of India, rose sharply since the mid-20th century to support the \u201cGreen Revolution,\u201d which was aimed at achieving self-sufficiency in food production.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>The Green Revolution has been citied as the primary cause behind the dramatic all in groundwater levels in the region through uncontrolled pumping and groundwater abstraction by several studies earlier but this paper provided high resolution data on groundwater level change to validate the hypothesis.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Several areas in north-central Punjab and Haryana recorded a rapid fall in ground water levels that require immediate action in terms of enhanced monitoring of the change and intervention to mitigate against pressure from abstraction,\u201d the study said.<\/p>\n<p>In areas where agriculture is the most significant casual factor for the severe groundwater losses, reducing irrigation water demand must be a high priority, it added. In areas with thick and abundant aquifer bodies in the subsurface, managed aquifer recharge or groundwater banking is also feasible, the study said.<\/p>\n<p>For areas where saline groundwater is present at shallow levels, artificial recharge schemes would be counter-productive, and would in any event suffer from low efficiency due to the limited amounts of aquifer material in the subsurface. Instead, rainwater harvesting combined with the development of channelized irrigation systems may be good option in such areas, it added.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span
