A two-part video that give you a vivid picture of the drinking water problems in India. Now, wasn't water a basic need of man?
Part 1Part 2
[Unfortunately (yep, for me!) NYT moved both these links without letting me know - and I'm quite occupied for a while that I've not been able to fish out some means of putting those links back. Anyways, you could go to any of the two links, and type-in 'Water Woes in India Somini Sengupta', and I'll sit here and hope you'll get a video with this description at least on the second page of the search results :)]
My take:Then, who said India's economy is booming?
Update, Jan 18, 2008:
Links have been updated with NY Times permalinks for these posts. Here is the corresponding article. It's high time we understand that economic growth at the cost of our environment - we'll soon leave nothing for the economically prosperous country to survive on.
