Water-stressed Indian cities* (the size of bubble indicates estimated population in 2030 - bigger bubbles indicate larger estimated population)

*Water-stress is defined as cities where the ratio of surface water usage to surface water availability exceeds 0.4 or where the ratio of groundwater extraction to groundwater recharge exceeds 1. Data from a 2014 study on global water-stress cities which only considers cities with populations greater than 750,000 and available data.
