Water Board seizes illegal motors
Water Board officials in Hyderabad's Khairatabad Zone seized 14 illegal motors used to draw water directly from supply pipelines. The crackdown aims to prevent pressure drops and ensure equitable water distribution for all residents.
Why it matters
It addresses critical urban infrastructure management and the enforcement of public utility regulations.
Water Board vigilance officials have seized 14 illegal motors during a special inspection drive in Bapunagar, under the S.R. Nagar ward (Division-16) of the Khairatabad Zone, on Friday.
The inspections were conducted between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. after receiving complaints over unauthorised use of motors to draw water directly from supply pipelines. Installing such motors on pipelines during scheduled water supply hours reduces water pressure and prevents other consumers from receiving their rightful share of water. And such practice also places additional strain on the distribution system, officials said.
