920 million litres of water wasted daily in India through RO filters

Thanks Nikita, this is useful info!

I’m wondering if there’s any policy mandate regarding the same.

As per the norms, it’s now mandatory to maintain a percolation pit or rainwater harvesting system in every building.

RO rejected water could be directly discharged to the rainwater tanks if the plumbing is planned accordingly during the construction. If done so, the entire process gets automated without any manual intervention.

Could you share some info about any such guidelines or construction advisories?
