- Abstract : While India battles COVID-19, hand washing is the survival strategy. The research objective is to critically examine water rights in India. The research asks whether there are rights to water in India, and if so, what kind. The thesis proposition is that India has derivative rights to water that are neither fundamental nor human rights. The research methodology is by narrative analysis. States prefer an economic good theory, rom the Dublin Statement. Fundamental rights to ground water in India are unlikely to be shifted. The India Constitution now provides additional rights. Human rights for water are only derivative and undeclared.
