Which pair of sectors is commonly addressed together in State Action Plan on Climate Change (SAPCC) adaptation planning?
Water resources and health systems
State Action Plans on Climate Change (SAPCC) are climate strategy documents prepared by individual Indian states and union territories. They are aligned with the National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC) and its eight national missions, and they translate national climate goals into locally relevant adaptation and mitigation actions.
Adaptation planning focuses on sectors that are most directly and immediately threatened by climate variability. The pairing consistently prioritised is water resources and health systems, which is the correct answer, because:
These two are closely linked — for example, water scarcity and contamination directly drive public-health crises — which is why they are commonly addressed together, alongside agriculture, forests, coastal zones and energy.
The other pairs are not standard SAPCC adaptation sectors. Heavy industry and entertainment, information technology and space research, and textile design and fashion marketing are economic or commercial activities that are neither the primary climate-vulnerable sectors nor the focus of state adaptation planning, so none of them fits.
