Burmamines slum dwellers rue contaminated water supply

Over 1,500 residents in Jamshedpur's Burmamines slums are receiving contaminated water from Tata Steel hydrants, leading to increased sickness like jaundice and diarrhoea. Leakages in cast iron pipelines have been identified as the cause. Repair work is scheduled, with water tankers to be provided temporarily. Slum dwellers threaten agitation if the issue isn't resolved promptly.
