Contaminated Water?

Following the civic body’s drive to snap all illegal tap water connections and booster pipes due to water shortage in the city, desperate slum families in northeast Mumbai are now digging wells to tap the ground water, which is allegedly contaminated with sewage residues. According to BMC officials, the area is a solid waste dumping ground; by digging the illegal ground water wells, there are chances of water getting contaminated with other pathogens as well.
