For politicians, nothing short of their commitment to the sector. An understanding that while water is a common and social good in developing countries, the increasing shortage makes it an economic good too. Hence water needs to be priced. Especially piped water.
For professionals - Maharashtra's SNA (Campaign for clean water) is something to be supported and emulated. It was designed as a reform-based investment in the sense that milestones in reform need to be reached prior to capitalinvestment. The Net has documents on this.
