    Be ready to pay more for water in future: Parrikar

    Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar today told the Legislative Assembly that tariff on drinking water in the Goa was "subsidized" and people should be ready to "pay more for it" in the future. He also informed the House that the Goa government had appointed a consultant to map the existing water supply and its report would be considered while laying new pipelines.

    Govt augmenting water supply by 152MLD in Goa: Parrikar

    Parrikar said that the government was in the process of augmenting water supply by 152mn liters per day in Goa. "We get only Rs. 150cr from consumers annually while the actual expenditure is Rs. 800-900cr," he said. He added that in the future, people should be ready to pay more for water after utilizing water, up to certain units, at a cheaper rate.

    Parrikar says no shortage of water in Goa

    Parrikar was responding to a question on water supply tabled by Congress legislator Philip Neri Rodrigues during the monsoon session of the Assembly. He ruled out that there was a shortage of water in Goa and added that it was people living at the "tail end" (of the supply) or those located at elevated areas who were facing this problem.
