Abstract - WatersupplyinIndiaisnowpreviewedascommunitybaseddemanddrivensystem,underwhichitisessentialto reinforcecapacityoflocalcommunityresidinginvillageandsmalltowntodevelopandmanagetheirownwatersupplysystem. The drinking water is one among the essential elements required for all components to hold out thevarious fundamental activitiesoflife.Duetorapidurbanizationandwaterscarcity,maintainingastableandsafewatersupplyhasbecomeachallenge tomanycities.Toovercomethesechallenges,watersupplysystemisneeded.Inthisstudy,insightsareprovidedonanalysisand designofbasiccomponentsofawatersupplysystemincludingthedistributionsystemanddrinkingwaterqualitycontrol.The designofwatersupplysystemforagroupofeightvillagesisdonefortheprojectedpopulationofthreedecades.Surveyof villagesiscompletedwiththeaidofdigitalGPS.Waterdistributionnetworkforthevillagesisanalyzedanddesignedwithhelpof BentleysWATERCADsoftware.Waterdistributionnetworksystemsaredesignedtodeliverwaterfromasourcewithinthe adequatequantity,qualityandatsatisfactorypressuretoindividualconsumers.

Pn=P+nxC
Where, Pn = Populationafternthdecades P = PresentPopulation C = Averagedecadeincrease n = numberofdecades

Thepopulationiscalculatedbyusingtheformula
Pn=P[1+(Ig/100)]^n
