Here’s why washing your car in Karnataka will cost you ₹5,000
In a recent report, all taluks of Bengaluru City District have been declared drought-prone, leading to a water crisis in the region. Private tankers have become a necessity to address the situation. Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar announced in an emergency meeting earlier this week that the government will prioritize irrigation and water management projects over other tasks.
Bengaluru and its surrounding districts heavily rely on water tankers, with approximately 3,500 operational in the city. However, only 10 percent (219 tankers) are registered with the government. The state government has issued a warning to the owners to register their water tankers before March 7, 2024, to prevent seizure. Additionally, the government has set fixed prices for water tankers to combat allegations of exorbitant rates by tanker owners.
According to the Bengaluru district administration, a 6,000-litre water tanker will cost ₹600, an 8,000-litre water tanker will cost ₹700, and a 12,000-litre water tanker will cost ₹1,000 for distances up to 5 km. Prices increase to ₹750 for a 6,000-litre water tanker, ₹850 for an 8,000-litre tanker, and ₹1,200 for a 12,000-litre tanker for distances between 5-10 km. The registration of tankers with the government and the fixed pricing scheme aim to alleviate the water crisis in the region.
As the water crisis escalates in Bengaluru City District, the government’s efforts to manage the situation have become crucial. The declaration of all taluks as drought-prone and the implementation of measures such as tanker registration and fixed pricing mark significant steps towards addressing the pressing issue.
