The standard of drinking water in India has improved in the last five years but a lot of work still remains to be done, the head of the World Water Council, WWC has said. <br/><br/>WWC recently carried out a major survey on water awareness in major parts of the world, including India. <br/><br/>As per the survey, more than one-third of Indians think that not enough is being done to achieve the UN's Sustainable Development Goals to make water and sanitation for all a reality by 2030. WWC president Benedito Braga said , according to the survey, 31 per cent of Indians said they had been in a situation where it was unsafe to drink water but they had no other choice and suffered from diseases like diarrhoea and gastroenteritis. <br/><br/>However, a majority i.e. 71 per cent of Indians said that safe drinking water had improved over the last five years.<br/><br/>The survey stated that 62 per cent of the Indians said they believed that the government was doing enough to support access to safe drinking water.<br/><br/>Referring to the 'Swachha Bharat Campaign', Mr. Braga praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his efforts towards clean drinking water and sanitation.<br/><br/>The survey was done ahead of the 8th World Water Forum that is scheduled to take place in the Brazilian capital Brasilia in March 2018.<br/><br/>
