Sec’bad Cantt to get water on alternate days

​Hyderabad: The Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWS&SB) has agreed to supply water on alternate days to Secunderabad Cantonment.

In a meeting held at the Secunderabad Cantonment Board office on Monday, it was decided that the issue of irregular water supply would be taken up with higher officials. The SCB has been grappling with shortage of water for years and had to pay arrears to Water Board.

In 2016, the government had agreed to nullify the arrears and the issue would be taken up soon, said Minister T Srinivas Yadav. Senior officials said once the Cantonment wise demand is recorded, the Water Board would initiate water supply on alternate days.
