Detailed Solution

High annual rainfall and a large population lead to water scarcity.
Most examples of water scarcity are caused by over-exploitation, excessive use, and unequal access to water among various social groups. It could result from a vast and rising population, with increased demand for water and unequal access to it. A huge population necessitates more water not only for home consumption but also for food production. Even if some regions have high rainfall, the rising population makes it a water-scarce region.
