1. HYDROGEOLOGICAL SETUP OF THE COUNTRY

1.1 GROUND WATER OCCURRENCE

The ground water behavior in the Indian sub-continent is highly complicated due to the occurrence of diversified

geological formations with considerable lithological and chronological variations, complex tectonic framework,

climatological dissimilarities and various hydrochemical conditions. Studies carried out over the years have revealed

that aquifer groups in alluvial / soft rocks even transcend the surface basin boundaries. Broadly two groups of rock

formations have been identified depending on characteristically different hydraulics of ground water, Viz. Porous

Formations and Fissured Formations.

1.1.1POROUS FORMATION

Porous formations have been further subdivided into Unconsolidated and Semi – consolidated formations.

UNCONSOLIDATED FORMATIONS

The areas covered by alluvial sediments of river basins, coastal and deltaic tracts constitute the unconsolidated

formations. These are by far the most significant ground water reservoirs for large scale and extensive development.

The hydrogeological environment and ground water regime in the Indo-Ganga-Brahmaputra basin indicate the

existence of potential aquifers having enormous fresh ground water reserve. Bestowed with high incidence of rainfall

and covered by a thick pile of porous sediments, these ground water reservoirs get replenished every year and are

being used heavily. In these areas, in addition to the Annual Replenishable Ground Water Resources available in the

zone of water level fluctuation (Dynamic Ground Water Resource), there exists a huge ground water reserve in the

deeper passive recharge zone below the zone of fluctuation as well as in the deeper confined aquifers which remains

largely unexplored as yet. Although the mode of development of ground water is primarily through dug wells, dug

cum bore well and cavity wells, thousands of tube wells have been constructed during last few decades.

SEMI-CONSOLIDATED FORMATIONS

The semi-consolidated formations normally occur in narrow valleys or structurally faulted basins. The Gondwanas,

Lathis, Tipams, Cuddalore sandstones and their equivalents are the most extensive productive aquifers in this

category. Under favorable situations, these formations give rise to free flowing wells. In selected tracts of

northeastern India, these water-bearing formations are quite productive. The Upper Gondwanas, which are generally

arenaceous, in general, constitute prolific aquifers.

1.1.2 FISSURED FORMATIONS (CONSOLIDATED FORMATIONS)

The consolidated formations occupy almost two-thirds of the country. These formations, except vesicular volcanic

rocks have negligible primary porosity. From the hydrogeological point of view, fissured rocks are broadly classified

into four types viz. Igneous and metamorphic rocks excluding volcanic and carbonate rocks, Volcanic rocks,

Consolidated sedimentary rocks and Carbonate rocks.

IGNEOUS AND METAMORPHIC ROCKS EXCLUDING VOLCANIC AND CARBONATE ROCKS

The most common rock types under this category are granites, gneisses, charnockites, khondalites, quartzites, schists

and associated phyllites, slates, etc. These rocks possess negligible primary porosity but attain porosity and

permeability due to fracturing and weathering. Ground water yield also depends on rock type and grade of

metamorphism. Generally, the Granites, Khondalites and biotite gneisses have better yield potential as compared to

Charnockites.

2

VOLCANIC ROCKS

The predominant types of volcanic rocks are the basaltic lava flows of Deccan Plateau. The highly variable water

bearing properties of different flow units control ground water occurrence in Deccan Traps. The Deccan Traps have

usually poor to moderate permeability depending on the presence of primary and secondary fractures.

CONSOLIDATED SEDIMENTARY ROCKS EXCLUDING CARBONATE ROCKS

Consolidated sedimentary rocks occur in Cuddapahs, Vindhyans and their equivalents. The formations consist of

conglomerates, sandstones, shales, slates and quartzites. The presence of bedding planes, joints, contact zones and

fractures controls the ground water occurrence, movement and yield potential.

CARBONATE ROCKS

Limestones in the Cuddapah, Vindhyan and Bijawar group of rocks dominates the carbonate rocks other than the

marbles and dolomites. In carbonate rocks, the circulation of water creates solution cavities thereby increasing the

permeability of the aquifers. The solution activity leads to widely contrasting permeabilities within short distances.

1.2 HYDROGEOLOGICAL UNITS AND THEIR GROUND WATER POTENTIAL

2.0 GROUND WATER LEVEL SCENARIO

2.1 INTRODUCTION

Monitoring of ground water regime is an effort to obtain information on ground water levels and chemical quality

through representative sampling. The important attributes of ground water regime monitoring are ground water

level, ground water quality and temperature. The primary objective of establishing the ground water monitoring

network stations is to record the response of ground regime to the natural and anthropogenic stresses of recharge

and discharge parameters with reference to geology, climate, physiography, land use pattern and hydrologic

characteristics. The natural conditions affecting the regime involve climatic parameters like rainfall,

evapotranspiration etc., whereas anthropogenic influences include pumpage from the aquifer, recharge due to

irrigation systems and other practices like waste disposal etc.

Ground water levels are being measured four times a year during January, April/ May, August and November. The

regime monitoring started in the year 1969 by Central Ground Water Board. At present a network of 15640

observation wells located all over the country is being monitored. Ground water samples are collected from these

observation wells once a year during the month of April/ May to obtain background information of ground water

quality changes on regional scale. The database thus generated forms the basis for planning the ground water

development and management programme. The ground water level and quality monitoring is of particular

importance in coastal as well inland saline environment to assess the changes in salt water/fresh water interface as

also the gradual quality changes in the fresh ground water regime. This data is used for assessment of ground water

resources and changes in the regime consequent to various development and management activities.

The State-wise distribution of the ground water observation wells is given in table- 2 and depicted in Plate II.

2.6RAINFALL VARIATIONS

In India, rainfall is unevenly distributed spatially and temporally. The average annual rainfall of the country for 2010 is

almost equal to the Normal rainfall of India. From the perusal of Average Annual Rainfall 2010 map given as Plate

XXII, it can be observed that the rainfall is excess in southern states except in Kerala, parts of western Tamil Nadu and

southern Karnataka. In the northern and northwestern part of the country rainfall is in excess. The Madhya Pradesh,

south-eastern Rajas, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Orissa, western Uttar Pradesh, western Gujarat, Punjab,

Himachal Pradesh north-east states except Assam and Meghalaya has receive normal rainfall. Rainfall is deficient in

eastern Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand south and central west Bengal, Assam and Meghalaya States. A review of

annual ground water availability, contribution from monsoon rainfall recharge and annual ground water draft in

different states falling under overexploited category and the rainfall distribution in space brings a paradoxical

situation in the sense that, withdrawal of ground water is not solely responsible for declining trends, the scantly and

low rainfall resulting in meager monsoon recharge is equally important. Majority of the ground water stress areas

categorized as overexploited and critical units also lies in these states.

3.0 GROUND WATER RESOURCE AVAILABILITY AND DEVELOPMENT STATUS

3.1 DYNAMIC FRESH GROUND WATER RESOURCE

The ground water resource of the country has been estimated based on the reports of all the states and UTs as per

the technical guidance of R & D Advisory Committee on ground water estimation. Ground water resources have been

estimated for fresh water as per GEC’97 methodology. The year of assessment is different for different states varying

from 1998 to 2004. The ground water draft figures were projected to March 2004 to bring ground water estimation

figures of different states on a common datum. The GEC’97 recommends that the assessment unit for alluvium could

be Block, but for hard rock, it should be Watershed. However, except for the three states of Maharashtra, Andhra

Pradesh and Karnataka, other states do not have watershed-wise data, hence computations were done on Block/

Taluka-wise basis in case of most of the states.

The Annual Replenishable Ground Water Resource for the entire country is 433, billion cubic meters (bcm). Plate XIV

presents the over-all scenario of ground water resource utilization and availability of the country. The ground water

assessed is the dynamic resource, which is replenished each year. The Annual Replenishable Ground Water Resource

is contributed by two major sources – rainfall and other sources that include canal seepage return flow from

irrigation, seepage from water bodies and artificial recharge due to water conservation structures. The overall

contribution of rainfall to country’s Annual Replenishable Ground Water Resource is 67% and the share of other

sources taken together is 33%. State-wise Ground Water Resources of India as on March 2004 is given in table 3. The

contribution from other sources such as canal seepage, return flow from irrigation, seepage from water bodies etc in

annual replenishable resources is more than of 33% in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Delhi, Haryana, Jammu &

Kashmir, Jharkhand, Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal and UT of Pondicherry. Southwest monsoon

being the most prevalent contributor of rainfall in the country, about 73% of country’s Annual Replenishable Ground

Water Recharge takes place during the Kharif period of cultivation. Keeping 34 bcm for natural discharge, the Net

Ground Water Available for utilization for the entire country is 399 bcm. The Annual Ground Water Draft is 231 bcm,

out of which 213 bcm is for Irrigation use and 18 bcm for Domestic & Industrial use. An analysis of ground water draft

figures indicates that in the states of Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, Jharkhand,

Kerala, north eastern states of Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura, Orissa, Sikkim, and Union

Territories of Dadra & Nagar Haveli, Daman & Diu, Lakshadweep and Pondicherry, ground water draft for domestic &

industrial purposes are more than 15% which is comparatively higher than the national average of 8%. In general, the

irrigation sector remains the main consumer of ground water (92% of total annual ground water draft for all uses).

3.2 STAGE OF GROUND WATER DEVELOPMENT

The stage of ground water development for the country as a whole is 58%. The status of ground water development is comparatively high in the states of Delhi, Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan and UT of Daman & Diu and Pondicherry, where the Stage of Ground Water Development is more than 100%, which implies that in these states the average annual ground water consumption is more than average annual ground water recharge. In the states of Gujarat, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh the average stage of ground water development is 70% and above. In rest of the states / UTs the stage of ground water development is below 70%.

3.3 CATEGORIZATION OF ASSESSMENT UNITS

Out of 5723 assessed administrative units (Blocks/ Talukas/ Mandals/ Districts), 4078 units are ‘Safe’, 550 units are ‘Semi-critical’, 226 units are ‘Critical’, 839 units are ‘Over-exploited’ and 30 units are ‘Saline’ (Table 4). Number of Over-Exploited and Critical administrative units are significantly higher (more than 15% of the total assessed units) in Andhra Pradesh (where categorization was done up to sub-unit level i.e. within Mandal – command and non-command-wise), Delhi, Gujarat, Haryana, Karnataka, Punjab, Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu and also the UTs of Daman & Diu and Pondicherry (Plate XXIII).
