Delhi’s pace of growth and urbanization are among the most expansive in India; however, water quality and supply continue to be a highly contentious issue within the media and everyday lived experience. This paper seeks to break down the way issues of water supply and quality are presented in the media towards more critical approaches to water access. Namely, I will investigate less visible narratives of water that do not hold a spotlight in mainstream media.
