Since rolling out the 'Water for All policy' in May, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has provided water connections to about 47 per cent of the applicants. Out of 1,666 applications under the policy, 782 were provided connections said the BMC. One connection for at least five houses means 20,000 people got an authourised connection in the past five months. There are around 150 slums with 20 lakh population that don’t have legal water connections. So about one per cent of the unauthourised slum population has received authorised connections so far.
