Recent years has seen lot of investment in drinking water supply and many of them have been grand successes. The colonies coming up or recently established succeeded in getting basics like electricity, drinking water, sewerage, municipal waste systems, roads, etc. Most of the recent developments were either based on % investment basis from private communities and govt or through help of socio political people. Sounds great !!

We need some serious break from bimbo or highly visible projects like roads, flyovers, airports, lighting, sezs, greenery parks, etc. The city (every inhabitant place) needs an organized master plan for water harvesting, sewerage treatment plants, underground cabling, waste collection & disposition, fire water outlets, school zones, etc. These are plenty of jobs and investment which itself is huge. The sewerage system in Hyderabad is age old and designed for much less population. Small amount of sudden downfall creates enough mess. The new additions in greater hyderabad were most like a patch work instead of an organized plan mainly because of budget issues. Plz avoid dumbing grounds within 100 kms of hyderabad surroundings. Trash collection is poorly mismanaged, a new system needs to be established.

We like simplicity, the current system for any these services or changes is highly dealing with influential people, time taking process and sometimes impossible. Make these systems more consumer or service oriented instead of preference towards high profile people or brokers. There is no vision 2020 without these basics and its not too far. Privatisation of HMWS during early 2000 and few allocations from budget were a decent step. They are in no way propotionate towards the recent developments.
