Hyderabad: A case has been registered against a man for allegedly acquiring a nala connection illegally from the freshwater pipeline supplied by the Hyderabad Water Board.
The accused has been identified as Nagendra Babu, the project in-charge.
The illegal connection was uncovered during an inspection by Water Board vigilance officers at a construction site under the NIMS expansion project in the Banjara Hills area. The site, located within the Water Board’s O&M Division-6 jurisdiction, was found to have tapped into the freshwater pipeline without the necessary authorisation.
As a result of this discovery, vigilance officials have filed a criminal case against the accused, citing violations under sections 326(A) of BNS 303(2) and the PDPP Act.
The inspection was conducted as part of the Water Board’s ongoing motor-free tap drive.
