24-hour water supply in parts of Belgaum

Staff Correspondent

Belgaum: The Karnataka Urban Water Supply and Drainage Board has informed the people to avail the benefit of the World Bank-aided 24-hour drinking water supply scheme before December 30.

According to official sources here on Tuesday, the scheme would become operational in corporation ward nos. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 44, 45, 46 and 48. Those who have no water and sanitary connection should get a new connection under the scheme while those who had unauthorised connection should it regularised. But the users would be required to pay a deposit of Rs. 2,000. Those living in houses with less than 600 sq. ft. area need not pay the deposit money.

The board warned that water supply would be automatically disconnected to those houses that did not have authorised water connection. No fresh applications would be entertained once the roadwork was complete.

For connections and regularisations, residents living in ward nos. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 should contact the board's office.
