Water the source of life, is passionate. Too passionate to manage. Excess of it leads to flood and lack of it results in drought and famine. Overgrowing demand of water and increasing shortage of it may lead to major conflicts. It is important to make people aware of values of water more so that they will waste less and pollute less amount of water. Remote sensing technology and Geographical Information system have been extensively used in exploitation of ground and surface water in many areas. Now, time has come to use these technologies to realize the concepts such as artificial recharge, water harvesting and watershed management. These technologies have the potential to help in reaching the ultimate goal of water resource management so that every one can get sufficient amount of water. This article explores the potential of. remote sensing and Geographical Information System in water resources management, development, and its capability to handle the issues related to water management and development
