Housing society maharashtra water inlets in flat

NeelRVYahoo (Querist) 27 November 2020 This query is : Resolved
Sirji,
I have one inlet of 0.5" inch connection in kitchen from main pipe line as per society has given to all flat. Every day society gives us 1 hour water supply and then closes this supply.

I have not done any additional connection from main pipe line. Hence, I will get same water amount and for 1 hour as all flats gets.

I have to put a rubber pipe from kitchen to bathroom 300ltr tank for the use of bathroom and toilet. for that my father(Age69)/me have to take chair to put pipe into tank. So, to avoid any accidents if chair falls, i added a T pipe in my kitchen and done piping till bathroom tank.

HOUSING SOCIETY said, saying that i have done double tapping and alterations done. You will have to remove that.

My thinking is that, I have only one 0.5inch connections and I have not done any alterations to main society's pipe line/layout. I have done internal piping to take water to bathroom and toilet.

Point:There will be same water supply to all flat owners with same timing. Any matter that I have done additional tapping/inlets unlawful!!!...

Quick Summary

A flat owner in a Maharashtra housing society is facing issues with the society regarding internal piping to transfer water from the kitchen inlet to the bathroom tank. The society claims this is 'double tapping' and an alteration, demanding its removal. However, the owner argues they haven't increased their water intake or tampered with the main supply, only rerouted it internally. Experts suggest that societies generally cannot interfere with alterations made inside individual flats, as long as the water quantity drawn doesn't increase. The owner is advised to present their case formally and consider legal action if necessary.

1. Society has no legal jurisdiction to interfere in alterations /modifications done inside members Flats. The Quantity of water does not increase by such alterations /modificaitons.

Legal jurisdiction of Society is "outside" individual flat but not "inside".
challenge action of the societybefore RCS / appropriate Court through a local prudent lawyer.
