- •Residents of Nabi Karim, Delhi, have been receiving contaminated, sewer-like water for months, with one resident claiming 20 years.

- •The water is described as black, foul-smelling, and directly connected to the sewer line, causing illnesses.
- •Many buy bottled water, while others are forced to heat and drink the dirty supply, using it only for non-drinking purposes.
- •Residents fear authorities will only act after deaths, drawing parallels to Indore's Bhagirathpura where 16 died from contaminated water.
