As per the Apex Court, the disconnection of water supply was a deprivation of the fundamental right to livelihood guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution. Issue legal notice to the Association and lodge the complaint before the local police. At most association can take legal proceedings for recovery of outstanding dues .
