Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Water is a state subject in India and is, therefore, managed by states independently. India Infrastructure Report 2011 makes an assessment of how the institutional arrangements in India-centre, state, and local institutions, (both formal and informal structures)-deal with the problems like water allocation, planning, and management on a scientific basis.
MoreLong description:
Addressing the challenges of water management and governance, the India Infrastructure Report 2011 brings a macro view of opportunities, conflicts, rights, and policy framework in rural as well as the urban sector to take into account crucial concerns like efficiency, equity, and sustainability. Since centre, state, and local institutions are unable to bring changes in the current water allocation, planning, and management policies, the Report talks about major institutional
reforms that are required in that area. The Report argues that desired reforms need to be geared towards establishment of specific private and community property right in groundwater, preferably tradable property rights.
It shows that modernized information systems, innovative planning, implementation and monitoring strategies, and focused evaluation systems supplemented by the efficient governance mechanisms are the way forward.
