Since the overall national water footprint of AI data centers is relatively small, why do they still trigger severe water crises in India?

India's data-centre capacity is projected to reach 5 GW by 2030, creating severe localized water stress because AI facilities rely on water-intensive cooling towers.

While national water footprints seem small, hyperscale clusters in specific cities can account for up to 10% of municipal water demand during dry months, competing with domestic use.

Under the Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987, free legal representation is guaranteed to eligible citizens and persons in custody regardless of means, combating a system where nearly four crore criminal cases pend and jails hold high numbers of undertrials.
