Water is one of the vital components of life. The rapid pace of irrigation growth, urbanization & industrialization has put enormous stress on water resources. Cumulative impact of increase in use of this precious natural resource has led to water scarcity in many regions of the country. Nevertheless, the climate change has also resulted in change in hydrologic cycle in the country. Hence, it is necessary that this scarce resource is protected by effective and efficient management on sound scientific methodology for its sustainable development.

The Ground Water Augmentation Awards and National Water Award were launched in the year 2007 with an objective to encourage all stakeholder including the Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), Gram Panchayats, Urban Local Bodies, Water User Associations, Institutions, Corporate Sector, Individuals etc. for adopting innovative practices of ground water augmentation by rainwater harvesting and artificial recharge, promoting water use efficiency, recycling & re-use of water and creating awareness through people's participation in the targeted areas resulting into the sustainability of ground water resources development, adequate capacity building amongst the stakeholders etc.

Considering the fact that surface water & Ground water are integral part of the water cycle, it is felt necessary to institute unified National Water Awards with the objectives of encouraging the stakeholders to adopt holistic approach towards water resources management in the country.

जल ही जीवन है।पर वह जल जो पीने योग्य हो।अतः प्रकृति से प्राप्त वर्षा,नदी,झरनों तथा भूमिगत जल का संरक्षण करना आवश्यक है।क्योंकि इनका जल ही हम पीने के लिए प्रयोग कर सकते है यदि ये जल समुद्र में बह कर मिल गया तो ये पीने योग्य नहीं रहेगा और विश्व में पीने योग्य जल का संकट उत्पन्न हो जायेगा।इस लिए उपयोग के अनुसार ही जल का उपयोग करना चाहिए।वर्षा के जल को भूमि और तालाबो में संग्रहित करना चाहिए।घरों दूषित जल को दोवारा शुद्धिकरण करके नहरों के माध्यम से खेती में प्रयोग करना चाहिए।
