A solution is being sought by the Union Minister, giving hope that the deadlock between MWTA and the Mumbai civic body might end. The association will be holding a general body meeting to take a decision on the issue

Members of the Mumbai Water Tanker Association (MWTA) met Union Jal Shakti Minister CR Paatil on Friday at Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC) to discuss their concerns over recent notices issued by the civic body to private borewell owners. These notices instruct borewell operators to cease supplying water to tankers unless they acquire fresh licences from the Central Ground Water Authority (CGWA).
The water tankers have been on an indefinite strike since Thursday over the issue.
