Hello,
I am living in rented house in Bangalore 3 floor building from last 2 years, we have a bore well attached to this building and we don’t have BBMP water supply here.
In my agreement it’s asked to pay electricity bill of my flat usage and my house rent nothing Else regarding water usage or borewell and its maintenance.
Now he had fitted water measure meter to all flats and asking to pay money as per the usage of the borewell water rs 10 ps/ltr. And it’s coming in Rs1500+ per month.
He also claims if I don’t agree to pay this we need to vacate the house. Is this Leagal to ask the money for ground water consumption utilising borewell at same building where we living.
Note: building and borewell belongs to same person :-(
