Usually, with increased population growth, there is a direct increase in demand for resources such as water.
Explanation:
When the demand for water by the population overwhelms the supply from surface sources such as lakes and rivers, underground water is taped. Boreholes are sunk to reached water aquifers.
However, drawing underground water more than it is replenished by precipitation, lowers the water table. As a consequence deeper boreholes have to be sunk to reach more underground water. A critically lowered water table can result in drought in the region.
