In this episode of "The Women Inspire Aspire Podcast", I talk to Rashmi Kulranjan about Hydrology, the science of water.

Water, like all other elements in Nature, has its own mind. But, as the consumers of water, we humans need to manage it properly. In the increasing demand for potable, irrigation, and general use water, rural, suburban, as well as urban areas are struggling to find the balance, and especially so, when they don't know the techniques of managing the water and its supply. In this awesome podcast, Rashmi shares her deep knowledge about water and its management that she got through her studies and her work.

We talked about how Rashmi's early years shaped her curiosity and exploration interest, her work as a hydrologist, water balancing study and how it was done for a city like Bengaluru, why waste water processing and re-using is the most sustainable component in water balancing, Cauvery-based water supply from Bengaluru, dangers of Cauvery water and ground water running out in Bengaluru, cost of Cauvery water pumping and why BWSSB is in constant state of debt, how Bengaluru has the largest decentralized waste water processing system in the world and how it could be utilized, maintenance of processed waste water quality, utilizing the processed waste water fully, quality of treated waste water aspects, and most importantly, a lake restoration framework conducted and being tested in Chintamani near Bengaluru.

Rashmi also shared her hobbies and interests, and her deep care about educating underprivileged children.
