Governor Rameshwar Thakur's call for constituting a 'Water Resources Regulatory Authority', vide the report in your columns on 26th March under the caption 'PPP can be answer to water scarcity', has not come a day too soon. Very much as the Chief Secretary has himself pointed out 'urban water bodies have failed miserably in supplying adequate water to citizens, and hence the need for PPP models'.
As long as the water resources are in the control of a duly constituted regulatory authority, the Socialists cannot raise the bogey of privatisation. And, as for water supply, it is too vital an infrastructure area not to have the benefits of competence and expertise that the organised sector players alone can garner.

Water Supply fact
Very good post, and we all know the fact that BWSSB has failed, in providing quality and quanity of water required for the growing bangalore.
For example,Bommanahalli which has been existing for more than Ten years does not even have adequate drinking water supplies and connections. Due to this people are spending thier own money for private borewells or even calling for Water Tankers. This is the state of it in many parts of bangalore......
This is a good move, and whole of BWSSB should be privatised and should cater for water, they can do far better job than what BWSSB is currently doing..... (Struggling)
It is not far when we can see many private Ltd companies working towards building basic infrastructure from stractch
XYZ Ltd Company - Water Supply
ABC Ltd - Electricity Distribution and Maintainance
EFG Ltd Company - Bus Transportation
G... Ltd Company - Airpot Facilities
