The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) unveiled a pioneering 'Water ATM' in Chanakyapuri this Thursday, marking a significant stride in infrastructure enhancement designed to bolster access to safe drinking water.

This initiative addresses the rampant water shortages experienced during peak summer months. NDMC Vice-Chairman Kuljeet Chahal highlighted that the Water ATM at Nehru Park is merely the first of 50 planned installations.
