This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the planning process for establishing a distribution network for water supply in Vikasnagar, Dehradun, focusing on the utilization of groundwater sources over surface water sources. It delves into the characteristics of groundwater source, discusses the infrastructure requirements, and addresses the projected water demand for Vikasnagar in the coming decades. Additionally, it highlights the current water scarcity issues faced by Vikasnagar and emphasizes the urgency of implementing sustainable solutions to ensure adequate water supply for the growing population. The sustainable provision of water in Vikasnagar remains a critical challenge due to the depletion of surface water sources. To address this issue, ongoing research endeavors are exploring the utilization of groundwater as a primary source to meet the region's ultimate water demand. Preliminary findings suggest the potential viability of groundwater as a dependable water source for Vikasnagar ultimate demand. However, challenges such as groundwater depletion, contamination risks, and socio-economic implications necessitate further investigation and intervention. In conclusion, ongoing research on groundwater-based water supply in Vikasnagar shows promising prospects for mitigating water scarcity challenges. However, to realize a sustainable water future for the region, concerted efforts must be made to address existing limitations and pave the way for innovative solutions that prioritize both environmental conservation and societal well-being.
