Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Municipal Corporation (CSMC) has warned residents against wasting water, imposing a fine of ₹10,000 on those found guilty of excessive water usage. The appeal came after noticing a resident, Nilesh Deshmukh, leaving the tap running even after his household water tank was full, leading to significant water wastage.
Commissioner Amol Yedge emphasized that wasting a precious natural resource like water is inappropriate and urged citizens to act responsibly. The municipal corporation has issued a list of actions that constitute water waste, including leaving taps running after filling tanks, allowing overflow from tanks to run onto the street, using drinking water to wash streets or vehicles, failing to repair leaks promptly, and leaving taps running in public areas.
Commissioner Yedge has warned of strict punitive action against any citizen found wasting water within the city, urging everyone to use water judiciously and cooperate with the municipal authorities.
