Water 247 is not just a pipe dream [1]

During debates on the merits of bringing in private water experts to distribute drinking water to homes in urban India 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, one story is often repeated.

It is the story of a woman, a daily wage earner from Hubli-Dharwad, tier-II twin towns in north Karnataka that received two hours of water supply every 15 days in the summer of 2002.
