Answer : 4. "Haryana, Karnataka and Punjab"
Explanation :
The Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) report on used water management has shown Haryana, Karnataka and Punjab as leaders in the country. Urban water demand is increasing while groundwater levels are decreasing. Urban local bodies (ULBs) need advanced treatment and reuse infrastructure. Of the 72,000 million liters of water used, only 28% is treated.
