Mumbai, April 11: The Mumbai civic body on Monday decided to implement the potable ‘water for all’ policy from May 1, Maharashtra Day. Under the revised policy, water supply has been proposed even for the previously excluded slum dwellers, residential areas and buildings. Even people staying on footpaths and roads will be given water connections.
Maharashtra tourism and environment minister Aaditya Thackeray conducted a special meeting about the “water for all policy” at the BMC headquarters with civic officials. “The meeting discussed how water can be made available to every citizen in Mumbai as it has become a fundamental right. Water is also considered as one of the important factors in sustainable development,” Aaditya said. (PTI)
