Water Supply

In accordance with the principle enshrined in Article 243 (W) of the Constitution of India read with the Twelfth Schedule. ULBs will be responsible for water supply and sewerage services from water catchments to waste water treatment. The Government of Karnataka, however, will have the responsibility to monitor that ULBs provide quality services in accordance with the standards prescribed at the State level. ULBs will have the choice of providing the services directly through public bodies or through such appropriate Private Sector Participation (PSP) arrangements. Given however, the paramount need for financial and commercial viability of the operations, the State will monitor strictly policies relating to minimal tariff operations autonomy of the municipal water operations, etc.

The Karnataka Urban Water Supply and Drainage Board (KUWS&DB) will continue to be responsible for capacity creations and augmentation in all ULBs and O & M in selected ULBs for the present. Over the medium term, the KUWS&DB will be restructured and its role redefined. In the longer term the KUWS&DB could become a publicly owned independent provider of technical assistance and management support to ULBs who do not have adequate capacity. 

In City Municipal Council, Robertsonpet, KGF the resposibility of water suply and sewerage services is maintained by Karnataka Urban Water Supply and Drainage Board (KUWS&DB).
