Water to soon cost more in Delhi | The Delhi Government on Tuesday announced new tariff slabs for water supply. Water supply charges have increased from nearly one-and-a-half to almost three
times the prevailing prices. According to the new slabs, for 10,000 litres of
water will cost Rs 80. The new rates will come into effect from January 1, 2010.
It also necessitates for all to have a meter in place till Dec 31, 2009. The tariff
was last increased in 2005. Due to a lot of water meters in the city being defunct
and many water connections unmetered, the residents were charged on average consumption basis. The cash-strapped Delhi Jal Board (DJB) took the decision to revise its tariff rates at a board meeting held on Monday. |
