"Drinking water is not supplied for days and weeks. If at all there is water supply, it is dirty and contaminated," said association's general secretary Kamal Kiran Sethi in a letter to the CEO of the DJB.

The business of private tankers is flourishing under the patronage of DJB officials, Sethi claimed adding that "the issue of water concerns more than 12,000 workers".
