Need to direct Delhi Jal Board to release water in pipelines laid


08-Oct-2023 (In Civil Law)
We live in an unauthorised colony in Delhi named Sangam Vihar. These colonies were authorised in 2019 under PM Uday sxheme.we are struggling for water for many years. Now Delhi govt has laid water pipelines in the area but doesn't release water in it. they say it's policy matter and when water will be available then they will give water. In surrounding areas like hauz khass and malviya nagar they give water more than 10-14 hours a day while here due to water mafia they doesn't release water

A Writ Petition can be filed before the High Court ask to direct the Authorities for the same. They will have to place on record why the water is not being released in the areas as suggested by you. We will have to make the Delhi Jal Board as a party.

Delhi High Court had observed in Delhi Sainik Cooperative Housing Building Society Ltd vs UOI that right to have access to drinking water cannot be denied merely on the ground that the residents are living in an unauthorised colony. You may consider writing a representation to Delhi Jal Board seeking release of water and in case of non-redressal you can approach the High Court by way of a writ petition.
