Use of potable water for washing vehicles, houses, roads will attract penalties

- MOHAMMED YACOOB @Bengaluru

BANGALORE Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) is likely to ban the use of drinking and borewell water for car washing, fountains, construction and recreational activities, if the situation worsens in summer. Water tankers will also face the heat if last year's situation prevails.

BWSSB chairman Ram Prasad Manohar said as groundwater has started depleting in a few areas and with summer approaching, rules imposed like last time will ensure that residents are not hit by water scarcity.
