Water is the most precious element on the earth. The tremendous increase in population has put intense pressure on all the available resources like land, forest and water etc. Among them, groundwater resources have been exploited the most. This divine component for all the living beings is facing the scenario of scarcity on the planet Earth. Indiscriminate and irrational use of water, its contamination, nonconservation of rainfall and the increasing pressure in the population are the main attributable reasons to be focused on. The spatio-temporal variations in the above-mentioned factors and many others over the last few decades show an increase in the trend of problems of water scarcity. The outcomes and results are being experienced in the everyday lives of the people in the Delhi Metropolitan Area. The present study is concerned with the increased level of water scarcity and low level of public investment in this prime sector. The study is based on both primary and secondary data sources collected from field survey. The result shows spatio-temporal variations as well as intra-regional variations in public investment with varying depths of groundwater in the study areas. The paper also suggests ways like rainwater harvesting, inculcating the ideal way of water flow, increase in vegetative cover, incentives for new irrigation techniques, modification in tile structure for footpath and adoption of green construction technologies etc. to ensure sustainability of the region.

Healthcare firms have understood that the valuation of “intangible resources” is a crucial driver of their profitability due to the complexity of the business environment and the intensity of competition. “Intellectual capital” is a source of “creativity and invention”, as well as one of the most important components in a company development, as it is the spark for success and growth. Technology has rapidly grown in importance around the world. As a result, the function of knowledge as a primary unit of wealth has been reliant on individuals' “creative ability, experience, and skills” to develop new information. The technological underpinning for KMS implementation is provided by information technology (IT). Since it is employed at all phases of the KM life span, it also offers a way of implementing a robust theoretical framework for KM. IT is critical during the steps of the “socialization externalization combination internalization (SECI)” paradigm. This research study mainly discusses the implementation of knowledge management and its impact on decision making in healthcare organisations. In this context, secondary method of data collection has been considered to gather relevant and factual data from different sources. Thus, keywords are used to find out topic-based information from journals, articles.
