In the scorching heat, the water fight has increased in the national capital. There are still many areas where there is no water pipeline, water is supplied through tankers.

 

People are forced to live their entire lives with little water and wait in queue for hours for the tanker and when the tanker arrives with water, a war-like situation arises. That is, the one who has the strength will be able to take more water, and the weak, the elderly will have to rely on luck.

 

People are seen running behind tankers in many areas of Delhi these days. Government tankers are reaching many colonies to quench the thirst of the people. Before the tanker arrives in the colonies, a queue of canisters is formed and people sit around it with pipes in the hope of getting as much water as possible.

 

Some people keep taking the location from the tanker driver. Something similar was seen on Wednesday in Vivekanand Camp in Lutyens Delhi. Youth, women, elderly were looking forward to the tanker for the availability of water in their homes. As soon as the tanker arrived, all the relations were put aside and the thirst for water was put on the other side.

 

There is no point in standing in line, everyone is busy with their strength and agility to get their water supply. A large number of people jump and jump and rush towards the tanker with pipes. Everyone starts drawing water by inserting the pipe from the top of the tanker.

 

A lot of water flows on the roads in the rush

 

In the race to fill their canisters with water, the elderly or women are seen to be dependent on luck. In this rush, a lot of water flows on the roads and those who are successful in laying the pipe, fill the canisters with water according to the number of family members. If someone gets enough water in this, then he shows mercy on someone else as well.

 

The process of drawing water from the tanker continues till the last drop. After the water is over, the phase of pleading begins...those who have taken more and got less water than that, ask for it on loan and promise that the next time when they are successful in doing so, they will give it to them.

 

There is a daily struggle for water

Quenching thirst through credit and reconciliation has become the fate of these colonies. Varsha, who lives in Vivekanand Camp, said that the struggle for water is a daily affair, there are eight members in her family, and if you do not show speed with the arrival of the tanker, then you will not get water.

 

Drums are kept according to the number of family members. Manoj Thakur, who works as a barber here, says that there are water fights every day, but later there is reconciliation.

 

It is certain that the youth will climb the tanker quickly and will put the pipe for water first, since there is a driver with the tanker, he does not want to get into a fight, so he leaves everything to the local people.
