This book has been developed through empirical research within the context of growing urbanisation and increasing water needs of Indian cities, and the wider developmental goal of achieving universal and equitable access to safe and affordable water for all as envisaged in goal 6 of the SDGs. This study revolves around three important aspects of urban water supply and governance. Firstly, it attempts to understand household water service delivery scenarios in urban India, drawing from case studies based on our household survey in four cities Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Kochi and Hyderabad. Secondly, it examines the question of existing socio-economic inequality and access to water in an urban context in India. While dealing with the issue of inequality and access to water, it attempts to explore the question of whether access to water and water scarcity is socially neutral; whilst also analysing the mechanisms employed by the urban poor to manage their daily water needs. Thirdly, this book explores the role of institutions for efficient and effective delivery of water in urban India. The institutional analysis from a comparative perspective provides important insights to guide current reforms in domestic water supply in India, especially in a neo-liberal context. The book is a valuable resource for academicians, policy makers and practitioners involved in water governance in general and domestic (drinking) water supply in particular. Besides, it is of great interest to those working in the area of urban development, urban planning and household water management. The book is an outcome of a collaborative research project by the authors sponsored jointly by University Grants Commission (UGC), New Delhi and UK-India Education and Research Initiative (UKIERI). 001447018 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001447018 650_0 $$aMunicipal water supply$$zIndia$$xManagement. 001447018 650_0 $$aMunicipal water supply$$xGovernment policy$$zIndia. 001447018 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001447018 7001_ $$aKattumuri, Ruth,$$eauthor.$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000402012232 001447018 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aRout, Satyapriya.$$tUrban water supply and governance in India.$$dSingapore : Springer, 2022$$z9789811638183$$w(OCoLC)1308478572 001447018 852__ $$bebk 001447018 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-16-3819-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001447018 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1447018$$pGLOBAL_SET 001447018 980__ $$aBIB 001447018 980__ $$aEBOOK 001447018 982__ $$aEbook 001447018 983__ $$aOnline 001447018 994__ $$a92$$bISE
