Residents stage protest for water

Bangalore: Residents of Domlur second stage staged a demonstration in front of the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) office in the area on Saturday demanding regular water supply.

Carrying empty vessels and buckets, they marched from Kalki Mandir to the BWSSB office, where they held the protest for more than one hour.

While adjoining areas got regular water supply, residents of second stage had to buy water, complained C.G. Sharma.

Ninge Gowda, Assistant Executive Engineer, BWSSB, Domlur, pacified the residents by assuring that “from tomorrow, water will be supplied on alternate days,” while blaming summer for the shortage.
