A ground report from Sultan Bazar in Hyderabad highlights severe drinking water wastage occurring beneath metro pillars 1204 and 1203. Despite appeals by Chief Minister Revanth Reddy to conserve drinking water, treated municipal tap water has been flowing continuously onto the streets of this busy commercial area. Local shopkeepers and residents stated that the leakage has persisted for years, running daily for several hours. Commuters and traders reported significant inconvenience, noting that the water flow causes slippery roads, accidents, and damage to market goods. Residents pointed out that multiple complaints lodged with local corporators and metro rail authorities yielded no redress, as officials allegedly claimed digging around the pillars could compromise the metro structures. Visual evidence shows persistent water escaping from numerous spots along the pillar base, reflecting official inaction.
