Sewerages play it foul [1]

Hyderabad, Nov. 5: Thousands of families in the cantonment area are being forced to maintain separate septic tanks for sanitation. Though officials say that 75 per cent of the 65,000 households in 300 colonies are connected to the sewerage network which includes the underground drainage and septic tanks, only about 30,000 households in the area have access to underground drainage.
