I can't find it but someone from one of the zones in India that is suffering from severe water shortages said just this (what you mentioned).
They said everything from filling in lakes to leaking water pipes and a corrupt local government are more to blame than climate change.
What's interesting is that even private enterprise can't fix this problem since there is probably a water cartel already in place to profit from the situation with the local government officials in on the take.
Why hasn't the local population held their government responsible or is this not possible?
