Various areas face serious water crisis in Hyderbad

About dozen of colonies along with Himayat Sagar and Osman Sagar lakes are suffering from harsh conditions of water scarcity since one month. Various water supply agencies like Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWSSB) took over the responsibility of drinking water supply to all rural areas inside the ORR from April 1, 2017. All the households get the water supply 2 3 times a week under the Rural Water Supply Scheme (RWSS) and also from available borewells.
Conditions of various big villages like Kismatpur, Himayatsagar (partly), Hydershakot, Peeram Chervu, Gandamguda, Neknampura, Puppalaguda, Khanapur, Narsingi and Manikonda worsens after the takeover by HMWSSB.
It is observed that the colonies near Gandhamguda and the Telangana Police Academy have the worst situation with the supply of water once in 1 – 2 weeks. Approx 20 percent households are suffering due to the infrequent supply of Krishna water as per told by the Sarpanch of an area.
Due to the worst conditions localities have to depend upon private water suppliers and purchase drinking water at higher rates. However to make higher profits the private suppliers are supplying the drinking water to Gachibowli and nearby areas.
Water ATM’s at various critical areas can be installed in order to curb the menace created by water crisis.
