Water is an essential element for survival of all living things. It is a vital factor for economic development--for augmenting growth of agriculture and industry. The paper analyses the water resources and conservation strategy of Pakistan. Since independence, this country has constructed only two big dams, i.e., the Tarbela and the Mangla Dams. The sedimentation condition in these dams has resulted in the decline of their storage capacity. The study indicates that due to stagnant water resources, the per capita water availability is decreasing at an alarming rate. The study highlights the proposed and ongoing water projects. The paper also articulates a water conservation strategy for Pakistan in order to fulfil future requirements. Keywords: Water Resources, Water Conservation, Pakistan
