For several years, the PMC has also tried to discourage the use of illegal water connections. However, the number of illegal water connections in the city remains significant. To curb this misuse, the PMC is metering and regularising illegal water connections to slums and homes that have been constructed under the gunthewari scheme. A user has to pay 3% extra tariff as connection charges and submit his address proof, proof of identity like Aadhaar card, electricity bill and contact details, along with the application form, to the nearest water zone office.
