why at some places the water table has gone down?

Dear Student,

There are many factors that have led to a decrease in the groundwater table. Some of them are listed below

  • Increase in population
  • Increased industrial activities
  • An increase in agricultural activities
  • Scanty rainfall
  • Deforestation, thereby leading to a decrease in the effective seepage area
Hope this helps.

Cheers!
