Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWSB) in Hyderabad has decided to reintroduce Voluntary Disclosure Scheme (VDS). The scheme that was open from August 1 to August 30, 2016, has been later extended. People who are below the poverty line would be provided with Rs 1 connection. But according to the reports, it is alleged that the scheme is not running effectively due to the interference of middle-class people who have encouraged corruption colluding with water officials.
