Is there any law to check wasting water? Can't the authorities do anything about this? People wasting water by washing cars with hosepipe or spraying the road on a dry, hot day are common sights in the city. It is disturbing to see such wastage, especially when the city is reeling under water crisis. When few buckets will suffice pipes fixed to taps are used with uninterrupted flow of water. This is done even when people in the adjacent building are without water. Why is there such scant awareness about vital issues though they may seem trivial? The authorities must step in and take up measures regarding such issues so that our irresponsible acts do not have negative impact on society.
