The last couple of days have been a horrific experience for residents of Indiranagar as they claim to have been supplied contaminated water by the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB).
Residents say that they have been receiving smelly and unclean water for at least 3 to 4 days. Speaking to The Hindu, Sneha Nandihal said, “We have been receiving contaminated water for the last 3 to 4 days. Most residents have disconnected their water supply, cleaned their water tanks, and are getting water supplied through tankers to their homes everyday.”
Ms. Nandihal claimed that there has been a consistent problem in the surrounding areas and some residents have even been hospitalised. “The same issue had happened in the neighbouring areas such as Michael Palya and Krishna Temple Road. Residents of Krishna Temple Road found water mixed with sewage in their sumps. The contamination in Michael Palya has been there for the last 3 months, many residents have been hospitalised due to this,” she said.
