Tibet is characterized by a continuously population growth. According to the population dynamics<br />

water demands for industrial water uses and public water supply will increase. Industrial water use<br />

was in 2006 about 86 mio.m 3 , whereby the public sector was at 73,6 mio.m 3 .<br />

The government <strong>of</strong> Bhutan has just started working on <strong>IWRM</strong> issues. In the frame <strong>of</strong> implementing<br />

Millennium Development Goals it is planned to achieve improvement especially in public water<br />

supply and sanitation services coverage in rural areas. Industrial water use does not play a big role,<br />

but therefore hydropower is an important product <strong>of</strong> Bhutan.<br />

Assam has a lot <strong>of</strong> problems, especially with access to drinking water <strong>of</strong> sufficient quantity and<br />

quality. In rural areas, only 50% <strong>of</strong> the population is covered by safe drinking water. A water<br />

management is tried to be implemented in different 5 year plans, which focus on public water<br />

supply, flood management and water supply for irrigation purposes.<br />
