The National Water Academy [NWA] is located in Pune (not in New Delhi). So, the second statement is not correct. NWA is envisaged to function as a ‘Centre of Excellence’ in training water resources personnel. It addresses the wider training needs of water resources engineers of States and Central Agencies in the fields of planning, design, evaluation, construction, operation, and management and monitoring of water resources projects. National Water Academy (earlier named as Central Training Unit) was set up in Central Water Commission in the year 1988, to impart training to the in-service engineers of various Central/State organisations involved in the Development and Management of Water Resources.
