Back in 2017, GHMC and Hyderabad Metro Water Supply & Sewerage Board had inaugurated Hyderabad’s first water ATM. The initiative promised clean and mineral-rich water to the citizens, especially to those who do not have access to it. However, in present 2021, the water ATMs now lie unused four years after their inauguration. Locals and citizens who used to depend on water-vending machines completely are forced to buy water bottles.
