Real Estate India: How responsible is BWSSB to provide Water in the newly developed areas like Devanhalli in Banglore?

-
Question asked by Arjun:

I am planning to buy a plot in devanhalli area in Banglore. I have been told that there is inadequate supply of water in the area. At the same time there is a lot of residential and commercial development happening in the area. Assuming that in a few years the water supply is not made, but these plots have been registered, can I sue the Bangalore water and sewage supply board for lack of water?

Vatsala Answers:

The Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) is the premier governmental agency responsible for sewage disposal and water supply to the Indian city of Bangalore. The BWSSB undertakes to supply water only to areas coming within its jurisdiction. Besides, the layout should be approved by the proper authorities. Only then the BWSSB is responsible for water supply. However the law of torts is not very well developed in India and suing the BWSSB for lack of supply may not get a favourable judgement, although you do have a cause of action on which you can act.

Broken titles in Bathrooms and living room. Mr. Pankaj Shrivastava Vatsala Answers: If the builder has not specifically undertaken to give night lamp point, electric point in dining area, it cannot be enforced. However, the broken tiles and electric point just below the shower can be rectified by going to the Consumer court (within the limitation period) as it will constitute deficiency in service.Vatsala http://www.atoneplace.com For more infor...

But where as during the time of booking there was no approximation mentioned in the form and proof of which is the carbon copy. After booking of form they have manipulated the original form by writing approx on the right hand side of registration cost which is clearly not there in carbon copy.
