Move to overcome water crisis in Guwahati
The water shortage in Guwahati can no longer be overlooked. The reason for this, according to AK Das, Junior Engineer, PHE, is the old pipelines and the scheme itself. The distribution lines are almost 30 years old. "The amount of water supplied is same but the population has increased manifold and the water is never enough.' Only when the distribution network is improved people of the city can expect to lead a water worry-free life.
