Bangalore Water Supply & Sewerage Board [BWSSB] Complaints & Reviews

To,
The concerned person,

With reference to my previous mail, i would like to appreciate the personnel of the BWSSB for repair work done on the leakage of drinking water pipe near sai mandir, t.r.nagar.

But, recently i have been noticing lots of small leaks for the pipes supplying drinking water to homes in Thygarajanagar area.Every alternate days when drinking water is supplied to the homes, the road becomes watery. I think that we should not be wasting water as most other parts of the Bangalore are facing lot a water shortage.
My suggestion would be that BWSSB personnel should regularly check and maintain the supply pipes which i think you people would seldom do.

Regards,
Raghuveer

BWSSB - Basic Facilities
===================

We stay at Kagadasapura First Cross, CV Raman Nagar, Bangalore 93.
Water supply is available only once in a weeks or 10 days.
This forces all to buy water from tankers.
When BWSSB is not able to provide water for its existing consumers, they are expanding it with Phase4/5 etc to new areas.
Would like to know what are the ways to officially register the complaint, is there any obligation/law which says that BWSSB must provide some minimum amount of water in a month.
After paying a hefty sum to BWSSB it is very disappointing that we do not get enough water to meet even 10% of our requirement.

Hi,

My name is Anu, I am resident of HSR Layout 7 th Sector(Bangalore - 560 068).We have taken the cauvery water connection by paying one and half lakh one year back.

Initially the water was coming good, from past 5 months we hardly get water due to few of our neighbours have taken illegal connection with out any meter.We are apoting for tank water every
week.

We do have separate tap given for each lane for local people.

We have complanied to nearest BWSSB twice orally but no action has been taken till date.

When ever we re-visit they will inform us they will action on same after the election.

With last hope we are lodging complaint here.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Sir,

I stay in the following address

No 1430, 18th Main, 1st stage, 5th block, HBR Layout, Bangalore -43. For the last 60 days, the cauvery pipe line which goes beneath the road in front of my house is leaking. This is causing water stagnation in front of our houses and subsequent problems of mosquito breeding etc. we have take up the matter with the local authorities and there is no response. The mail sent to the chairman of the BWSSB also does not get any response.

I am absolutely at sea as to what to do to rectify the pipe line. when i contacted a private plumber, i was informed that this pipe line has to be rectified by bwssb authorities only.

I would request my complaint to be taken up and action taken at the earliest.

thanks and regards

Respected Sir,

Subject: Water Crisis & Officers do not respond to the complaints & very rude to me

This letter is to inform you regarding the water crisis in our area for the past one month.

Last 20 days we are not getting water supply properly through BWSSB connection. We have to depend on private water supply agents inspite of having cavery water supply connection. One of the major problem in our area(Road) is that Main water supply line is connected from a downside area towards upside(hill side) area instead o[censored]p to down side. It can be easy rectified by making the Main water supply connection from Upside to down side. This will help to get water supply even when pressure is low.
All the residents in our Road are facing problem because of not having proper water supply.

Also I have been in regular touch with Mr. Malla Reddy & he assures that a tanker will be sent but till date nothing has happened. When questioned he says I have informed the driver if he doesnot come what shall I do. This clearly indicates the poor administration quality of your officers. We have been purchasing water from the private water supply agents. Mr. Chalapthy & Mr. Venkatraju doesnot even bother to respond to my phone calls. I have been sitting in the BWSSb office from 0600hrs to 0800hrs today & have also written in the complaint book for the requirement of a water tanker. I awaited till 1000hrs & no one responded from BWSSB end. At 1020hrs the tankers came & filled for the houses next to us & never bothered to care for us. At last I again managed to get a supply from the private agent. This is really becoming an harassment for me & would request your good self to order for an enquiry. With the above condition it was really a night mare for us to survive for the past one month in that particular area without proper supply of water.

Hence I shall be grateful if your goodselves conducts an thorough investigation & provide me a solution for this problem at the earliest.

Thanking You,

Sir,
This is with heavy heart I am writing this mail.
My house is located in Shankrappa garden, Magadi road Near Sampoorna Ice cream factory, Bangalore-560023.The main drainage line has been blocked and the sewage is over flowing for the past 2 weeks. I have given the complaint at Magadi road, 5th cross BWSSB office on 13th of June, 2009.( Written the complaint on the book). Till today no body has come and attended the problem. Because of sewage flowing near house lot of mosqitoes are breeding and myself, my wife and my 4 years old son have fallen ill and also it has become very difficult to live with the foul smell.
I request your kind self to direct the concerned people from BWSSB to rectify the drainage problem immediately so that people over there can live healthy.

Eagerly awaiting your swift action,

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am resident of HAL 2nd stage, 17th 'B' Main, Bangalore. THU 11th June 2009, there was a huge rain fall in our area, due to this, the drainage was blasted and all drainage water enters in to our house inside, The water level inside the house was almost 2-Feets. All our house hold things got wet and lot of damage and caused huge amount of inconvenience. We did not sleep whole night. We are regularly paying the water bill and maintain charges to BWSSB, but they are not taking any action in our area to solve these long existing drainage problems.

This is to bring to your kind notice that the sewage line (main line) of 2nd Cross (as per the other address details given below) is totally blocked since last 10 days. We have been lodging written complaints at the Ulsoor Station repeatedly since 30th April 2009. Apart from this we have visiting
the station twice daily requesting to take action. We have been getting very rude treatment when we visit the station, although no action is yet taken.

Address : 2nd Cross, RHA Pension Line, Artillary Road, Gowthamapuram, Ulsoor, Bangalore - 8.

We are in a very pathetic condition as the sewage water is now flowing out causing too much of discomfort, especially now when there is outbreak of diseases such matters should be dealt with utmost priority.

Sir, I humbly request to you to kindly look into the matter and do the needful.

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,

Thanking you,

Respected Sir,

I stay in No. 797, 26th Main Road, HSR Layout Sector One, Bangalore 560102. Mine was the 3rd house on this road. Mine is a single family house still not able to get water. We are aware that the water comes every alternate days as we could hear the noice from our adjacent house.

I had called BWSSB to complain about the water supply but nothing has been done about it.

Several complaints...

Hi,
I stay in No.4, Artillery Road, Ulsoor, Bangalore-560008. Mine was the forth house on this road. This area has been corporation for over 50 years. There is never been times so bad. Getting water these days seems to be a dream. All the buildings here have tapped the water flow and there is no one checking it. I had called BWSSB to complain about a tap in the water supply in the next building (ZEN Gardens) which have a motor to suck the water to their building, but nothing has been done about it.

Several complaints have gone in unanswered. When there is water is every small corner of Bangalore, Why is corporation not bothered about the old water lines? We just keep getting billed but no water.

I would really appriciate if someone could look into this water stealing business and help the TRUE Bangalorians. You can reach me on [protected] if you need more details on this.

Suraj
