The group argues that the new rule will disrupt both business operations and key government infrastructure projects.Spokesperson Ankur Sharma said tanker operators have started receiving notices from Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation ward offices and well owners. He highlighted concerns over one requirement that mandates 200 square meters of land around each well, along with the installation of a flow meter and a GPS tracking system. He questioned how such conditions could be met in a densely populated city like Mumbai.Mumbai has over 1,800 water tankers that supply non-potable water from borewells and wells. Each tanker has a capacity of 10,000 liters, providing an estimated 200 million liters of non-potable water daily. Sharma said this supply is critical for small businesses and major government projects, including road concretization. He warned that the strike could significantly impact ongoing development work.The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation previously issued similar notices in 2023, but enforcement was halted after intervention by the state government. According to officials, the licensing requirement was introduced in 2020 to prevent excessive groundwater extraction. Water tankers currently draw from 800 to 1,000 groundwater sources across the city.
