BMC mulls setting up ring wells
Following suggestions from corporators, BMC’s Standing Committee is contemplating setting up ring wells as they are better than bore wells. In the Standing Committee meeting today, corporators said ring wells are better than bore wells as they have better life.
“Ring wells are working well in many areas and there is never a complaint of saline water getting mixed,” said Rajul Patel, a Shiv Sena Corporator from Andheri (West), when the proposal worth Rs 50 crore for cleaning of wells was passed by the standing committee.
Chairman of the Standing Committee, Ravindra Waikar said, “If these kind of wells work better the civic body will not mind setting ring wells.”
