To overcome the delay in registering cases by the respective Station
House Officers (SHOs) against water defaulters and illegal water
connection holders in the Greater Hyderabad limits, the Hyderabad
Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWS&SB) has decided
to file cases before the magistrates on its own with required
documentary evidences.
A decision to this effect was taken during a
review meeting of the water board recently which was chaired by the
board’s managing director J Syamala Rao.
All the general managers
have been issued directions to file cases against the defaulters and
illegal connections before the SHO concerned, if he declines to register
the cases, the general managers should then file the cases before the
magistrate directly with required documentary evidences.
OSDfor
Revenue Recovery Act Prabhakar has been asked to coordinate with general
managers on registering the cases against the defaulters, officials
said.
