Maharashtra’s politicians have searched the center’s intervention after the MUMA Water Tanks Association (MWTA) stopped on Thursday against the latest notifications of the civilian body and the owners of Borewell.
The Brihanmumbai Comminal Corporation (BMC) asked the operators to stop the tankers and get a fresh license from the central land water body (CGWA).
In the letter of the Union, Minister of Minister Ashish Shell, said: Kindly urge your respected office to facilitate the discussions between the central and state bodies to facilitate clear and practical instructions for CGWA licensing. “
According to the latest instructions of CGWA, a license will be licensed only if the well is in the parcel of land, having a minimum amount of 200 square meters. In addition, the guidelines also note that only one tanker can fill the water from the well. New guidelines also make it necessary for every good operator to record the flow of water.
Whereas Shiv Sena (UBT) Head and Worli Mla Aaditya Thackeray wrote in X: Government of Indian Offices DeliI call on a BMC Commissioner to hold a press conference and confirm Mumbaikars on a water problem with BMC program. “
In MumbaiWater from tanks is used in residential societies, as well as on current public infrastructure, such as coastal road, subway and bullet train projects. Water is also used for other important purposes, such as the cleaning of rail coaches, maintenance of public roads, lawns and gardens.
The BMC supplies 3,200 million liters (MLD) for 4,200 million in demand. As a result, tankers remain an important source of water in Mumbai, particularly in informal settlements.
