It's not only a problem in one state but throughout the country. So, shifting from Mumbai will not be a real solution," he told reporters in Hyderabad at an event. Asserting that shortage of water is a fallout of global warming and climate change, Laxman said it is a phenomenon that affects the whole country.

Because, this is going to be a problem. We have seen so much of global warming. "One of the major effects is climate change which indirectly will affect the water. We have seen that in the past. It affects the country, not one or two cities," Laxman said.
