Supply
Water In The Morning
Water scarcity has been
the common problem in Kathmandu for decades. Come the dry season, then come the bad days
for housewives and their domestics. They have to prepare food and wash the clothes of
their school-going wards with a little water they could collect from the taps every
alternate day. They are unsure when the water trickles down from tap and when does not. So
they have to remain awake from the midnight so that they would not miss to collect the
water if it comes.
We do not understand
why the Water Supply Corporation supplies water at midnight and gives more trouble to the
women. Can’t it supply water in the morning or evening?
