Ground verification and analysis of MPLADS budget by way of Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi revealed how Old City residents had been relying on reverse osmosis plants funded by way of the MP quite than HMWS&SB water.
Of the 27 crore budget ( five crore in line with annum with passion in past five years throughout 16th Lok Sabha time period), Owaisi spent most financial on cement-concrete roads, sewer pipelines and reverse osmosis plants, highlighting failure of civic bodies GHMC and HMWS&SB. IdealNews went round Hyderabad constituency and verified some of the works.
Owaisi, who was once at second spot amongst 17 Telangana MPs when it comes to spending MPLADS budget, had initiated 279 works, including 72 for laying CC roads, 47 sewer pipeline laying and 21 RO plants. Residents in Hyderabad LS constituency had been purchasing water from those RO plants at fee of 3 in line with 20 litre quite than consuming 'contaminated' water equipped by way of HMWS&SB.
Owaisi had launched four.five lakh for sinking borewells with submersible motors and installation of static water tankers with necessary fittings at govt dispensary near Florida School in Talab Mir Jumla.
Abdul Khader Nizami, a resident of Yakutpura who came to assemble water from an RO plant, informed TOI, "HMWS&SB supplies water once in two days, that too contaminated due to which the kids fall sick regularly. We have to depend on RO plant for safe water." Mohammed Zaheeruddin, a resident of Amanandagar, claimed, "Hundreds come to these RO plants to buy water."
Owaisi funded a minimum of 21 RO plants in past five years. AIMIM MLC Syed Amin Jafri informed TOI, "The Nizam-era pipelines suffer breaches, resulting in contamination of water supplied by the civic body. Former CM YS Rajasekhara Reddy had announced an Old City package for changing the pipelines, but after his death, the project didn't go ahead. HMWS&SB has no money even to change manhole covers and it focuses more on capital expenditure. For sewer network in lanes and by-lanes, we are spending money from both MPLADS and MLA and MLC constituency development funds."
About CC roads, Jafri stated, "GHMC doesn't have money for maintenance. It proposed a budget of 7,661 crore, but it spends only 3,300 crore per annum."
GHMC commissioner and HMWS&SB MD Dana Kishore informed TOI, "We spend a few hundred crores on CC roads from GHMC budget. MPLADS is only 25 crore and we have three MPs in the city. We maintain more than 10,000 kilometres of roads in the city." An HMWS&SB reputable stated, "HMWS&SB supplied water is pure. RO plants, while processing water, remove most minerals."
