How best can the problems of floods and droughts be addressed so that the losses are minimal and the system becomes resilient? In this context, one important point that needs to be noted is that India gets 'too much' water (about 75% of annual precipitation) during 120 days (June to September) and 'too little' for the remaining 245 days. This skewed water availability has to be managed and regulated for its consumption throughout the year.

A
Constructing huge concrete storage tanks and canals across the country
B
Changing the cropping patterns and farming practices
C
Interlinking of rivers across the country
