The Banglore water crisis brings awareness to Hyderabad. Tankers restock water supplies at the Nandinagar residence of former Telangana chief minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao.

Hyderabad residents were harmed early this summer by the rapidly declining levels of drinking reservoirs and the diminishing groundwater levels, according to Newstap. Even the former Chief Ministers residence had to rely on water tanks for everyday household use due to the severe water shortage.

Hyderabad edging towards drinking water crisis!

According to Telangana Today, The upcoming summer months will undoubtedly be difficult due to declining levels in the citys primary water source, the reservoirs, and mediocre groundwater levels brought on by insufficient rainwater harvesting.

Water used to be plentiful in the city overall, despite the fact that very few areas ever experienced shortages. The Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWS&SB), on the other hand, appears to be less organized this time around, as evidenced not only by the delayed water tanker deliveries but also by their initial increase in bookings.

Many residential colonies in Hyderabad have expressed dissatisfaction with the inconsistent municipal water supply and tanker delivery, particularly those near the IT corridor. Even though there is a consistent water supply in some places, the pressure is insufficient to meet their needs.

The upcoming summer months will undoubtedly be difficult due to declining levels "Although its only early March, there has been a slight increase in demand. However, a water tanker company owner in Katedan predicted that April and May would see a high volume of orders.

Prices range from Rs 600 to Rs 2,000 for a 5,000-liter tanker. Additional fees are incurred if the filling station is located far from the delivery location.
