There is acute shortage of potable water in all the parts of Bangalore due to failed monsoon and continuous two years drought. The Underground water table has touched down the lowest ebb and the quality of the water pumped is toxic to highly pathogenic.
Therefore, we request all the readers to enlighten the associations, friends and relatives to check the quality of the water before the purchase and at the time of use.
In a rare case, it is found that treated water is being supplied in one part of Bangalore, but yet to be confirmed.
General Checks:
PH, Total alkinity, Total Hardness, Odour, Color, TDS and Microbial Parameter Such as E-Coli , Coliform.
The tanker rates or prices range from Rs.300/- to Rs1,200/- for 6,000 to 7,000 litres depending upon the location and the quality of water.
