Quick Summary

Residents of a South Mumbai building, completed in 2011 but receiving occupancy certificate in 2022, are facing issues with obtaining a drinking water connection. Both the builder and the BMC are reportedly uncooperative. Potential solutions include legal action against the builder for failing to provide this essential service, applying directly to the BMC for a connection, and considering a writ petition to the Bombay High Court, as access to drinking water is considered a fundamental right.

Ask the builder/BMC what action has been taken on their demand/request not to provide drinking water (through registered post ack. due to the builder) and the BMC using RTI.

How did you survive without water since 2011 to 2022 ?
Did you or anyone not take any action, if so, why ?
What is requirement to get water BMC connection at this stage ?
File a writ petition before Bombay High Court through a local prudent lawyer.

Hello,

You can take legal action against the builder as the builder has failed to provide water to the building. You may also apply to BMC for a water connection.

Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 14 December 2022
Since drinking water is part of right to life a direct petition can be made in high court.
