Abstract: Due to advent of computations facilities and emerging technologies in the field of water sector, the gap between research and its applications is rapidly increasing. Problems and challenges in the field of hydrology and water resources have been discussed. Requirement of hydrological design aids as well as Decision Support Systems; necessity of preparation of standards, manuals, guidelines; strengthening of training and capacity building; importance of web portals and outreach plans; drawing talented young professionals to research institutions; upgradation of infrastructure; significance of crowdsourcing and engaging citizen scientists; integration of research and practice and action points for using emerging technologies are brought out.
