He was speaking at the Lockheed Martin Bengaluru Tech Expo and Innovators Meet, India Innovation Growth Programme, in the city. He added that the growth was because there are many innovative minds coming up with several innovations.

DH News Service Naveen Menezes BENGALURU: Decentralised approach to treating sewage, rejuvenating lakes and harvesting rainwater have the potential to gener- ate a whopping 31 thou- sand million cubic (tmc) feet of water every year, which is much more than what the city needs, finds a latest study by researchers from the Indian Institute of Sci- ence (IISc), Bengaluru. The study was conducted by a team of scientists including senior researcher Ramachan- dra T V, Energy and Wetlands Research Group, Centre for Ecological Sciences, IISc, to assess the quantum of water available in the region to meet the domestic demand. The study largely banks on three key potentials: annual rainfall, sewage treatment and efficient rainwater harvesting system. “There is 30.85 tmcft of wa- ter available in the region an- nually to cater to the demand of Bengalureans, which is 20.05 tmcft. However, the city administration should opt for decentralised optimal water management,” Prof Ra- machandra notes. “Bengaluru records an av- erage annual rainfall of 787 mm and the total annual water yield is about 14.8 tmcft. The domestic demand of water is 20.05 tmcft per year (1,573 million litres per day - MLD). This means about 73% of Ben- galuru’s water demand can be met by efficient harvesting of rainwater,” the study points out. The quantification of sewage generated shows that about 16.04 tmcft (1,258 MLD) of sewage is generated in the city. The research paper notes that the sewage treatment with complete removal of nu- trients and chemical contam- inants can be achieved by con- structing decentralised treatment plants. It gives an example of a suc- cess model (secondary treat- ment plant integrated with constructed wetlands and al- gal pond at Jakkur lake). The study, however, ob- serves that this model of de- centralised harvesting of wa- ter and use of treated sewage is not an attractive proposition for the current breed of deci- sion-makers with a colonial style of functioning. The financial gain is much higher in the case of mega projects (such as water diver- sion) compared to these de- centralised models. This is the sole reason for the local ad- ministrators to degrade de- centralised water harvesting structures and alienate the lo- cal community, the research paper says.
