Is there not a groundwater issue in Punjab?

Except this plant is in Gujarat, and the distance from the southern most city I could find in Punjab to Dholera, GJ is 1048 km.

Oh ok the fab in Chandigarh had been mentioned

Chandigarh is connected to HP's water system. There are multiple dams just a couple miles away of CH.

Not severely.

The issue is bad maintenance of rural agricultural water infra due to political promises 10 years ago for 100% free water for farmers in Punjab, and negotiating with neighboring Himachal Pradesh and Jammu Kashmir over water rights.
