Time and again, we hear that the city of Bengaluru will run out of water. Depending on where you hear this alarm from, the year could be 2020, 2025 or 2030. Everyone from the BBC to the Niti Aayog to city experts have claimed that the city is doomed.

Is this really true? Water is a scarce resource, but water availability is not Bengaluru's challenge, says S Vishwanath, our guest on Episode 13 of the Thale-Harate Kannada Podcast. He says that the real challenge in is the sustainable utilisation and distribution of water, and this is where the government, communities and individuals have play their role in doing so.

S Vishwanath is the founder of Rainwater Club and is a Director at Biome Environmental Trust. He has worked extensively on water and sanitation issues in Bengaluru, Karnataka and India. Vishwanath is popular on social media as @Zenrainman, and has been tireless in his efforts to educate people about water and sanitation, and what solutions can make a difference at every level of action.

Vishwanath talks to hosts Pavan Srinath and Surya Prakash BS shares a historical perspective to Bengaluru's water woes, and touches on various aspects of water -- from the role of the government and the BWSSB, to groundwater and its management, the role of open wells, borewells and tankers in the city – all the way to wastewater and sewerage, and the role of Bengaluru's many lakes. It is definitely a challenge to provide clean, safe and adequate drinking water to residents of the Bengaluru megapolis, but far from impossible.
