With two thirds of the earth's surface covered by water, it is evidently clear
that water is one of the most important elements responsible for life on earth.
It is not only vital for sustenance of life, but equally essential for socioeconomic
development. Water is the unique gift of God and the basic
requirement of life. Due to the high indulgence and exploitation of human
being with nature, the global environment is changing every day. The fragile
province of Pakistan Balochistan is facing the worst ever crises of water
shortage for last many years, as water available for any given use has
become increasingly scarce. The unexpected turn down in rainfall, excess
usage and mismanagement in most of the upland areas of Balochistan are
putting more stresses on water resources. The problem of water shortage
particular in Washuk district falls it in the category of worse 'Water Scarce
districts'. there are several factors those are crucially responsible for such
situation, like unaware masses, excessive numbers of solar tube wells, lake of
dames, lake of information regarding water scarcity and negligence from
government, law enforcement authorities and civil society organizations,
these all factors were also the basic reason behind the research study on
factors causing water scarcity in Washuk Balochistan.
