This book explores the conceptual and theoretical frameworks of
Right to Water and analyzes its values in the context of water
policy frameworks of the union governments in India. It uses a
qualitative approach and combines critical hermeneutics with
critical content analysis to introduce a new water policy
framework. The volume maps the complex argumentative narrations
which have emerged and evolved in the idea of Right to Water and
traces the various contours and the nature of water policy texts in
independent India. The book argues that the idea of Right to Water
has emerged, evolved and is being argued through theoretical
arguments and is shaped with the help of institutional arrangements
developed at the international, regional, and national levels.
Finally, the book underlines that India’s national water policies
drafted respectively in 1987, 2002 and 2012, are ideal but are not
embracing the values and elements of Right to Water. The volume
will be of critical importance to scholars and researchers of
public policy, environment, especially water policy, law, and South
Asian studies.
