Delhi Jal Board chief lends ear to Dwarka woes

NEW DELHI: Their efforts at Gandhigiri were finally rewarded as residents of Dwarka were called by Delhi Jal Board CEO Debashree Mukherjee on Thursday to discuss their water problems. Frustrated over the unavailability of water for the past several years, residents had taken to sending Mukherjee SMSs on October 10 and till Wednesday had sent anything between 300 and 500 text messages.

However, sources said it was made clear that till Delhi didn't get additional water from Munak or other source, there was no solution for Dwarka's problem. "A 20 million gallon per day water treatment plant is being constructed for Dwarka. Additionally, 3-4 MGD water is being diverted from Nangloi WTP. But diverting more water is out of question as that would mean depriving other areas of water. Till the city gets more water, DJB can't do much for the area but when water does come in, Dwarka is a priority," said sources.

However, residents were offered full co-operation on rainwater harvesting and water conservation strategies.

"The CEO assured us that our problem will be sorted out as soon as it is possible. We will, however, continue with our agitation till there is a specific solution," said Sushil Kumar, president of the Dwarka Residents' Forum.
