PMC: No permits for water tankers sans GPS devices
Updated On: 20 May, 2013 03:08 AM IST | | Sukirt D Gumaste
With the deadline for equipping tankers with tracking devices long past, the civic body says it will not renew licences of tankers still without it; says tanker owners illegally deliver water outside city limits
The deadline to outfit water tankers in the city with global positioning systems (GPS) flew by on May 15. But only a single tanker has the GPS system installed yet. Annoyed, the civic body has stated firmly that permits of the tanker owners will not be renewed this month if they do not have GPS installed.

Not a limiting factor: Many of these tankers cross city limits to deliver water, thus going out of the PMC’s jurisdiction. Pics/Krunal Gosavi
