Ground water is of paramount importance for drinking, domestic, agriculture and industrial purposes. As large parts of India particularly hard rocks terrain have become water stressed due to rapid growth in demand for water due to growth of population, demand for irrigation, rapid urbanization and changing life style. The two major objectives of the aquifer mapping is the delineation of lateral and vertical disposition of aquifers and their characterization on 1: 50,000 scale in general and further detailing up to 1: 10,000 scale in identified priority areas and the quantification of ground water availability and assessment of its quality to formulate aquifer management plans to facilitate sustainable management of ground water resources at appropriate scales through participatory management approach with active involvement of stakeholders.
