MWSA urges not to take water from taps illegally

Male, October 9 (HNS) – Maldives Water and Sanitation Authority (MWSA) has urged the public not to take water from the public water of Male illegally. MWSA said that water should be taken from such taps only for essential needs and that water should not be taken in containers with a capacity exceeding 10 litres. MWSA said, however, that it has been noted that some parties take large quantities of water from the taps for purposes other than essential needs. MWSA said that it had prohibited taking water from taps in wheelbarrows, pull carts, pickup trucks and lorries but a large number of people take water from the taps in such vehicles. MWSA said that it takes action against parties that take water from public water taps illegally.
